New Wilco... Impressions?
I have the CD not the LP. It is a solid album expect for the 15 minute track "Less than you think" as Sean mentioned. The Droning gets annoying. Otherwise I think the album is great. I listened to it twice yesterday and really enjoyed it. You guys... 
Upgrading speakers...Legacy Focus 20/20???
I agree with WarrenH. There are SOOO Many better speakers out there. I am just not a Legacy Speaker Fan. I am not trying to start a holy war here but they have way too many drivers to do what a good speaker should. Dissapear.. I would personally t... 
Your favorite recent discovery
Ryan Adams Love is Hell Full Release.. 
Problem with Cardas. They won't help, can you?
That is strange. I e-mailed the site once and received a reply from George Cardas himself..Chris

James,Check out www.audience-av.com. You can purchase the Conductor Series or their Maestro Series in your price range if not below. I have an Audience Conductor Cord for my iPod which sounds Awesome.The best sounding AQ stuff is their Perfect Sur... 
Audioquest Cables for Calming treble
I agree with Nighthawk. You can do SO MUCH better than AudioQuest with your money. I used AudioQuest for years and had great results so I paid the premiums. I was using the AudioQuest Ananconda ($1000.00 1M) and their Volcano ($2000.00 2M) and the... 
Stereo system Too Bright
Chris,I have had your problem. Not to sound mean, but I would sell your system and start from scratch. In my younger years when I ran a high end store, all the Manufacturers woud run contests. I acually won an Adcom stack, (GFA-535, GFP-565,and a ... 
Help me spend my $1500, interated or separate?
I would agree with the MF A300 or strongly consider the Electrocompaniet ECI-3 or ECI-4 used here on Audiogon. Good Luck! Chris

Are Sonus Faber Cremonas "Tube Friendly"?
The Cary will be fine. No worries. I bet it will sound great. Good luck.Chris 
compact bookshelf speaker for my system
I would suggest the Dynaudios along the the Sonus Faber Concertino home monitors. Both are nice sounding mini-monitors. Let your ears be the judge though and listen to them extensively before you buy.. Good Luck! Chris 
Meadowlark Swift vs. Soliloquy vs. Concertinos
I will have to differ with Rysa4 on the Concertinos. I owned a pair and still regret selling them as I have a small listening room and acheived a "magic" sound with them. The Meadowlarks are nice too and will give you more low end. Again, the conc... 
Audience Au24 vs. Ridge Street Audio?
I have never heard of Ridge Street Audio cables until this. Interesting.. KiD 
KEF 104/2 vs 105/3
Both are nice speakers. I used to sell audio and sold both. I always prefered the 104/2's. In my oppinion they are hands down a better speaker. Keep Them! KiD 
Meadowlark Nighthawk vs Von Schweikert VR4 SE
I have not heard the Nighthawks but have heard other Meadowlark Speakers and they are hard to beat. I would contact them directly. I currently own Sonus Fabers which I am thrilled with as I prefer accurate imaging and a warmer sweeter tonality as ...
