| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @jaymark Good to know I'm not the only one who's had issues with that aspect of the RS2. As for synergy, it's been my experience that we can never really be sure how components will behave together until we actually hook them up, press play/dro... | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @charles1dad Terrific! Thanks for dropping in, Charles! | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @djones51 Just to clarify, I'm not advocating that Clapton's shortcomings should be excused or overlooked because he's a famed musician, merely pointing out that nearly everything in this world is a mixture of opposites or put another way, deepl... | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @jaymark My aim is to balance the two presentations (voluptuous vs. analytical). I've tried gear in my system that has pushed it to one extreme or the other, on various occasions. I believe it's just as worthwhile to hear, first-hand, what we d... | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @djones51 "Then again, I'm not wholly off the deep end with the conspiracy theorists and racists either." Something you and I have in common, then. | |
| 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... |
