| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @jaymark Many thanks for your on-point response. I am seeking the type of presentation you ascribe to the Jay's and will therefore order one. Best wishes, Stuart | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @djones51 History is littered with individuals who've made substantial contributions and yet are not wholly admirable as people. Then again, I can't claim to be wholly admirable, either. | |
| DAC Merry Go 'Round- why I stopped at Weiss Glad you ultimately found something that pleases you. At the same time, I'm grateful to not be afflicted by the extreme "allergy" to digital sound you've experienced. If I could only be satisfied by gear with the price tag of a Weiss, I could ne... | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @mijostyn "The problem with EC's playing from my perspective is I always seem to know which note comes next which for me makes him boring" Fair enough-- each to his/her own. "We are sitting on the brink of a nuclear war, getting as close as ... | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. Clapton has always acknowledged his debt to the Blues masters whose phrases he painstakingly learned by copying one phrase at a time off records, listening, then trying to duplicate what he'd heard , then moving the needle back and listening again... | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @bdp24 I was enjoying Bloomfield's LP into twin tone just a couple days ago on "My Labors". There's nothing wrong with Garcia's circa 1972 strat into twin tones, either! | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @bdp24 ⁷ Cooder's playing on "Bring the Family" is exemplary! | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. Bumper sticker I saw today... "Tune out the static and tune into the now" | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @tablejockey I had a Blackface deluxe and a blackface vibrolux at the same time and enjoyed them both. Eventually I got frustrated with the finnicky nature of vintage amps but they sounded wonderful. | |
| Why is most everything remastered? @tylermunns "ideally, communities like like this one can help music fans discern which releases are worth buying" This is what the Steve Hoffman site is purportedly focused upon. However, what I've encountered over there is that participants fa... | |
| Happy Birthday Bob Marley @mackintosh1 "other artists are still trying to repeat his style, but it doesn’t work. And all because it had a soul and the text with music came from the heart" Bob Marley quote: "Jah wrote all those songs" | |
| Audio nonsense @eworkflow "In short, listening, adjusting/experimenting to A/B comparing, and ending up with YOUR acceptable compromises, is the only process worth trying; disputing or arguing it here is a complete waste of time. Reporting it, however, should ... | |
| Audio nonsense Addressed to the anti-tweakers: If your true intent is to prevent people from being taken advantage of-- if that is your sincere impulse and you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that product xyz cannot and does not work-- deriding others is a ver... | |
| Why is most everything remastered? My experience has been extremely varied-- some remasters sound better to me and some sound worse. I made the mistake of buying the version of Layla most favored on the Steve Hoffman site (a Japanese SHM) and found it unlistenably bright. My sys... | |
| Madman! Digital vs Vinyl Why not choose one format, play Elton John and simply enjoy the music? |
