| Best Covers @bdp24 So, Lauderdale wrote music to Hunter's lyrics... o r???? | |
| Anyone listen to entire albums? I only listen to complete albums... on CD, that is. . | |
| Best Covers @bdp24 After The Band’s 1969 second s/t album---routinely cited as the first "Americana" album---sent shock waves through the Rock music world, suddenly The Dead---and a lot of other bands---followed suit, but none with the depth The Band posse... | |
| Sound Anchor Stands @tooblue Thanks so much for the info! @dekay Interesting. Those seem really long/deep --not likely to pass the WAF test! Am actually thinking in terms of next speakers as the 17.5's are over 15 years old at this point. | |
| Sound Anchor Stands @pdreher Good product and built to last... they are indestructible and heavy. Built to last? Great! Heavy? Not so great at my stage of life. My back is not "indestructible" ! ;o) @freediver I believe my current Target stands are heavi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @botrytis I’ve played guitar for 50 years (just to entertain myself -- I found out early on that gigging was not for me) so I don’t have to depend upon my system to have a deep connection with music. Nevertheless, I still enjoy good audio, just... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim You're welcome! Wish more artists' websites emulated H.Hancock's. @botrytis Sounds like a healthy approach to me... | |
| No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse? With so many differing opinions all I can say is this is a very confusing topic... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yeah, "Head Hunters" was the first H. Hancock album I encountered -- checked it out from the local library in ’75. Soon after that I was seduced by Blue Note album covers into exploring that label’s offerings. "Maiden Voyage" was the first H. Hanc... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @acman3 I’d forgotten I’d seen the Heath Brothers until I saw this ! Must’ve been late seventies in Santa Barbara -- don’t recall the venue. Stanley Cowell was on piano. I seem to recall them being on a mission to demystify jazz, make it more ac... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim You might enjoy perusing the discography on Hancock’s own website -- it has the covers displayed graphically. Click on each cover for notes. This is an entertaining and very easy way to research his recordings all in one place. Not ... | |
| Benchmark Media Systems. Right or wrong Why is it that such opinions are most often delivered with a large helping of condescension? It's as much about the writer's "wisdom"(ego) vs. "audiophools" as it is about the gear-- perhaps more. | |
| Guess who has new speakers in their lab? Let's see... Jay, of all people, acquires more, really expensive audio toys. What a surprise! Apparently, we're supposed to get REALLY excited about this. Why? For no reason other than it's Jay, apparently. No harm in being a fanboy, I guess.... | |
| Anybody have Experience with Alta Audio Alyssa Speaker @tjraubacher So, what's next in your search??? Are you lucky enough to live near to a Joseph dealer who has Pulsars in stock? I'm not ;o\ I contacted Joseph and was told they have no dealers in N. CA ! | |
| Anybody have Experience with Alta Audio Alyssa Speaker @csmgolf It sounded like the midrange driver did not correctly meet the tweeter making vocals seem recessed / distant / veiled. There was a suckout that just didn't work for me. The Stereophile measurements of the Alyssa not only show the sucko... |
