| The Best Live album Weather Report "8:30" Live album. C'mon folks Jaco was the man on bass. There has never been a cat who could play like that. He was the Hendrix, Davis, Coltrane of electric bass. Too bad about what happened to him though. So very sad. | |
| Harmonic Technology Pro 11+:any opinions? I use the Pro 9s between a Krell 400cx and Thiel Cs6s and after trying several cables, this was the best solution. Very open and dynamic with super detail. | |
| Amp for Thiel 2.3s. Anyone use Classe with them? The Thiels need the current to drive them at demanding low impedances (3 Ohm minimum) so that the low and lo-mids will come through with punch. The W5 is a great amp and should be able to provide all the cureent needed. I used to have the CS7s dri... | |

| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... Wait a minute, there is no such thing as accuracy when it comes to sound, musical or otherwise. That is simply because in order for it to be accurate, it must have quantitative parameters that can be measured. And there is no way in heck that what... | |
| What did your first "real" system consist of? At the age of 13 I bought a system from Tech HiFi in Dedham, MA in the winter of 1973 after returning home from the hospital with a broken leg suffered while skiing in the White Mountains of NH. They had a "starter" system for $199 consisting of a... | |
| Necessary Attire I use a sterotactic frame for the skull, like they use for brain surgery, mounted to a one ton military surplus rocket sled seat when listening critically. But those spikes pressing into my head give me a headache after awhile.However, the soundst... | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... I'm compelled to jump in here. By the way this is one of the better threads I've read and I certainly will do my best to contribute to it and not degrade it. You can be sure that if there are industry heads out there trolling through agon, this is... | |

| Need help with Sutherland Ph.D. phonoamp My post indicated 100 Ohms, as in "one hundred Ohms", not 100k (one hundred thousand) Ohms or even one thoussand Ohms). Anything higher than 100 Ohms for a Koetsu does not load the cartridge sufficiently for good, warm full sound, but instead tend... | |
| What item sold you cannot live without?? Thiel CS7s, the original. I wish I had kept them and upgraded them to 7.2 with Thiel's kit. | |
