| BOSTON SACD I was never really impressed with any of the Rock Recordings I purchased on SACD. I think Madhf is on to something. When it comes to rock, I would say it is safe to say the MFSL Gold Discs and Current Remasters will sound better than the SACDs on ... | |
| Treating cable terminations in wet environment Something that is very effective and works great as well is simple candle wax. Take a thin lit candle and carefully drip the hot wax on the connection. I use this on my outdoor speakers every year and it works like a champ..Chris | |

| Best integrated or receiver w/phono for $1K? Used the Creek 5350SE with the phono card would be a great unit.. It is one of the few Solid State Integrated Amps that impresses me everytime I hear it..Chris | |
| any cheap DAC for my Airport Express? The Airport Express through a High Quality DAC really makes for enjoyable listening. I run my Airport Express into my Electrocompaniet ECD-1 right along side my Theta CD Transport and now probably listen to Airport Express probably 75% of the time... | |
| The Strokes - First Impressions Of Earth It is a great album. I caught them on tour last year at NATION in Washington DC. I was surprised how good they really were. I dig em.. Chris | |
| Sony XA777ES or Rega Apollo for Redbook CD's Very good recomendations from Robm321 and Janseni2006. I owned a XA777Es for quite some time. The Redbook playback is definitely on the more accurate and analytical side of the fence and can come across as cold sounding. I personally have not hear... | |
| Adcom monster amps The Adcom stuff will play plenty loud but you might want to rethink pairing them with a metal dome tweeter. I would look for an amp with a sweeter signature sound if it were me. Chris | |
| Speaker for NAD C320BEE I put together a bedroom system for a friend using the same NAD gear and paired it with a pair of the newer little EPOS.. What a great match. The system sounds better than that it has a right to at the cost.. Good luck..Chris | |
| Best Live Shows 2006 ? So far this year for me it would be "Mike Doughty", "Twilight Singers", and "Toad the Wet Sprocket" on their reunion tour. Glen Philips really sounds great with those guys.. I really cannot believe anyone would pay money to actually go see Michael... | |
| a little dinner music I usually throw in a little Pantera "Cowboys from Hell". It sets the mood just right...KiD | |
| Ani Difranco I like her voice and her music for the most part. Several of her albums sound fantastic.. It's the politcal babble I could do without..KiD | |
| Radiohead, Night 2 Toronto That's awesome.. Those guys are great..KiD | |
| DK Design Review 05-29-06: Audioari1Actually, yes Chris, you absolutely should seek out the Creek. Isn't it time to upgrade the Cary Audio Design SLI-80?LOL! Is that really the best you can do? I really expected a revelation of a response. I just asked a question.... | |
| DK Design Review I would not consider myself a DK basher but being off today and doing a little listening, I decided to read the review in Stereophile after coming across this thread. I have to say, after reading it, I would absolutely seek out the CREEK Integrate... |
