Looking for my first tube amplifier, help appreciated. There was a pair of atmasphere m60s posted a while ago pretty close to that price, IIRC. | |
Options for full-featured music servers/streamers? +1 reubent. I own one; his customer service is the best and all units are upgradeable (software and hardware). | |
Does a sub need to be on the floor? +1 mapman | |
Volume Control setting corresponds to how many db down (-db) from 0db at full volume? Short answer, NO. Lots of reasons that I'll let others w more technical background explain. | |
Your last concert was to see who and when? But-. Well said. No individual ego in that group; all players/singers serving the song. When they are that technically skilled and the songs are that good, it's sublime! | |
Your last concert was to see who and when? Bdp24- I didn't get into Lyle's story telling and dry/offbeat sense of humor because it can be a bit off-putting to some folks. It tickles my funny bone, but I'm pretty far off the norm on that axis. I've seen him several times now over about 20... | |
Your last concert was to see who and when? Last night my wife and I saw Lyle Lovett and his Large Band. What a show, one of the best ever! Lyle, Christine, amazing 4 piece horn section, 9 person gospel choir, Russ Kunkel on drums (best ever) Luke Bulla on violin (best I've ever heard bes... | |
Mark of a scammer...learn not to burn. If he's legit he would accept Albert's terms; if not, you'll never hear from him again, | |
Bi-amping Rules Agree with those who say that you really have to have an active bi-amp system for it to make much sense. Some benefits can be achieved with a passive vertical bi-amp which of course assumes you are using two identical amps. Otherwise, you need a... | |
Lampizator Music KOMPUTER or MusicVault or MemoryPlayer64??? I have used a Music Vault for about 10 years. They can address pretty much all of your needs. Not sure if they can rip DVD-Audio (I should find out, I have a few). They have RAID auto-duplication w up to 8 TB local storage. They can handle DSD... | |
Why a digital media player instead of a dedicated computer? Erik- I loved my Modwright Logitech Transporter but the display is dead and my understanding is that replacements are not available, at least from Logitech. That's the problem w dedictated servers which typically have proprietary parts or softwar... | |
New Room (from House to Apt) advice wanted on minimizing complaints Headphones also a very very good idea. | |
New Room (from House to Apt) advice wanted on minimizing complaints The maple blocks will still couple the sub to the floor, just over a smaller area. Look into Aurelex (sp?). They make specific products for subwoofer isolation. If you own the apartment, the green-glue/dry wall solution should also be seriously... | |
Anyone into cassettes? Any of you cassette guys; send me pm if you are interested in NOS or used tapes or hardware. | |
Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps Lots of great singers mentioned; you can't go wrong with any of them. I'm going to go in a different direction based on my recent experience. My speakers are relatively high efficiency (96 dB single driver) and I thought that 300b or EL-34 SE... |
