| Give 'Ambrosia' another listen @roxy54 It comes down to supply and demand or "what the market will bear". I’ve spent considerably more for out of print CDs, particularly Jazz; I don’t consider $28 "expensive" for a hard-to-find title. It all depends on your budget and how m... | |

| Sweet Sounding DAC @mdrone "Yes Weiss and Aqua were on the list; but the price point was out of budget - per my spouse. Aren’t the Aqua DACs rather large in size?" To answer your question(s): Aqua La Voce S3 dimensions; 18 X 12 X 7 Price: $4650 | |
| Sweet Sounding DAC @mdrone I"m not able to help you with contacting grannyring. Choosing a DAC is highly subjective; really you need to try some in your system and discover what pleases your ears. It seems to me @jjss49 has provided you with a great starting poi... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @bdp24 Thanks for the background on your listening history with Clapton. I recall reading one interview in which he described his musical taste as "schmaltzy". Maybe that explains some of the post-Layla records? @grislybutter Ah, OK. I re... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @grislybutter Sorry to be so dense but my aging brain is not following you. I don't see how Harrison could've been involved in the creation/design of the Encinitas Center because that was built in 1937. Do you mean the smaller SRF Encinitas temp... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @bdp24 There’s somewhat of a parallel in the life of John McLaughlin who became a dedicated student of, I believe, the vina (someone correct me if I’m mistaken). It got to the point where decided he had to drop the vina because he felt, deep dow... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @grislybutter Not sure what you mean. Are you saying there's a garden dedicated to Harrison within the SRF grounds? | |
| Sweet Sounding DAC Given the number of positive forum comments regarding the mods done by @grannyring to the AudioMirrorToubador , I would not reject that DAC outright. Regrettably, I cannot advise you on any of the others you’ve listed. | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? Then there is this: "George wanted most of all to be remembered as a gardener, one who ‘wrote one or two good tunes.’” - Olivia Harrison | |
| Can/Is AI Used To Post Threads on Audigon? @mahgister " the goals of the A. I. must be made compatible always and align always to human goal..." AI ’s development is being driven by two of the most powerful and least wholesome human goals: accumulating wealth and power. And those who w... | |
| Can/Is AI Used To Post Threads on Audigon? @citydweller "No such thing as "AI". Computers only do what people tell them to do" If only! Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWiM-LuRe6w | |
| Larry Coryell / Miroslav Vitous Quartet @audphile1 👍 | |
| Larry Coryell / Miroslav Vitous Quartet Looks like most if not all of the tracks on the Beck/Mitchell are up on You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ql8dKIhN96w | |
| Larry Coryell / Miroslav Vitous Quartet @charles1dad Great ambience in your room and those Coincident floor-standers look to be very high bang-for-the-buck! |
