| Stuff You Tried To Love @sokogear If you don’t like Miles you don’t like jazz, and that’s OK. Jazz comprises more than 50% of my listening and at times has comprised a much greater proportion since I first began exploring it in the mid 70’s. There are numerous Jazz ... | |
| Stuff You Tried To Love @mahgister Sometimes it is not the opinion the problem... Sometimes it is the way the opinion is phrased as an ultimatum... So true! Not such a big deal re: audio but when it comes to politics... | |
| Stuff You Tried To Love @artemus_5 I know one must be a jazz or female vocals guy in order to have an affirmed audiophile card but those genres just don’t move me. Don’t pay attention to anyone who tells you what you are or are not based upon their subjective tastes... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @acman3 I did 't mean to imply PM is essentially commercial. His recordings do cover a wiide spectrum. | |
| I found my new reference album Personally, I preferred her work with Birds of Chicago but each to his/her own. | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim Having encountered some of his stuff that sounded a bit too commercial for my tastes early on caused me to give up on him but given his large discography, there must be other more straight-ahead recordings I might enjoy. | |

| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim I've never been a big P. Metheny fan, but "Bright Sized Life" is one I continue to enjoy. "Like Minds" is another: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6epTSAq0s4&list=PLu-6Kqh1DAHM7KuyLp3k7kG85TwPzY9Jq | |
| Jazz Mount Rushmore @rpeluso Nothing wrong with giving an opinion. Musical taste is, by definition, highly subjective. Perhaps you'd like either of the duo recordings Tony Bennet did with Bill Evans. Perhaps not. I'm a big Jazz fan but there are definitely Jazz a... | |
| Jazz Mount Rushmore @rok2id Exactly. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Two of my favorite S. Fortune recordings: 1) "Alto Memories" co-led with Gary Bartz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dejJchJRhs0 2) "From Now On": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXWG4DdNkuM | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. I had some interactions with him when shopping for a DAC. He sent me a Metrum Pavanne and a COS (don’t recall the model). I didn’t end up buying either one but I’d have no reservations approaching him again. We got into some deep e mail discussion... | |
| recommend PRAT Integrated amplifiers (not Naim) @audiocanada I'm mystified by your assertion about Hegel. My H390 has PRaT in spades. It's one of its most evident attributes. | |
| 2024 Audio System Wish List Upgrade digital coax and AC cables. Possibly a power conditioner. | |
