@audio-b-dog  ... and don’t forget the album titled "Return to Forever" with same personnel as "Light As A Feather" !

@audio-b-dog  he said that sax players avoided doing two pieces in a row on soprano.  I haven’t heard Redman play soprano but one thing I’ve noticed is that not all sax players are equal in terms of the tone they can get out of a soprano. Appa... 
Advice on a good Digital Coax Cable to run between my Transport and DAC?
Doh!  Just realized my Hegel doesn't have XLR digital inputs so I can't try AES/EDU cables with this set-up., It'll have to wait until I acquire another external DAC.

@acman3  Saw RTF on their Romantic Warrior tour.  Personally, I still prefer Mahavishnu for Fusion and when it comes to Corea, his acoustic recordings.     
Why so many AQ Hurricane PC's for sale?
@buellrider97  You didn't say whether you run the poodles straight into the wall or into a power conditioner. Could affect the curliness factor and therefore the effect on sound in the room.   
Something to put a smile on your face
@bigtwin  Yes; I’ve watched that one repeatedly. Also the later show from the Catalyst filmed by Les Blank. The Old Grey Whistle Test Emmylou Harris show is another I keep revisiting.

@audio-b-dog  No problem. FWIW, I wasn't attempting to draw you out, simply expressing solidarity.   
Advice on a good Digital Coax Cable to run between my Transport and DAC?
@facten  Thanks. I misunderstood; I thought 75 ohm connection was considered superior to 110 ohm.  Now I get it. I'd be curious to try both versions of a single cable.

@audio-b-dog  Unfortunately there’s currently a movement towards exacerbating rather than correcting the problem. I’m afraid things are going to get much worse before they get better.  Needless to say, this goes way beyond the scope of Jazz or th... 
Advice on a good Digital Coax Cable to run between my Transport and DAC?
Don’t mean to hijack thread but I’m confused. Two brands of AES/EBU cables I’ve looked up online (including Jorma) state they are 110 ohm. If 75 ohm is considered "best", then why would Jay’s optimize their transports for AES/EBU?  I have a CDT2m...
