Vinyl / High qual analog tape / High-res digital -- One of these is not like the other What happens if we consider albums that were recorded digitally? As I understand it, most music has been recorded digitally for the last 40 years. Let’s say it was recorded digitally at 96/24 and I have a download or stream at 96/24 that hasn't be... | |
Saved Music Pulled from streaming services! It's happened to me too. Maybe the record label cancelled a contract or who knows?It is the danger of streaming that the physical format folks always warn us about... What are you going to do when one day you no longer have access to all your mus... | |
Female Vocals - Nora Jones new album - Pick Me Off The Floor I don't follow Norah closely, so maybe this isn't new, but this album sounds like a more mature artist to me. | |
Female Vocals - Nora Jones new album - Pick Me Off The Floor Very nice album by Norah. Thanks for the tip. | |
Integrated Amp (Gryphon, T+A, etc) or DAC + Stereo Amp for B&W 802d3 I think the T+A could handle the bass with your B&Ws just fine, but talk to someone who knows for sure before spending any money. | |

Tube versus SS Hi Mike, I meant 'a' system. We would all like to have a system like yours, but for many of us, it's not in the cards. So my question was whether a small regenerator would be adequate for a more modest system. Thanks again for your reply. | |

There are many flavors of digital to enjoy and digital sound quality is progressing steadily. All vinyl does not sound better than all digital, either. Good digital can so... | |
Go Buy Some Music You Deadbeat Streamers! Streaming should be a great thing for musicians. It's the most efficient way for them to get their music out to the public. Listeners can try all kinds of new music without having to buy a CD or LP that you may not even want to listen to all the ... | |
Go Buy Some Music You Deadbeat Streamers! The amount of money artists make from streaming is a big problem. I don’t know how it can be solved. The boomers are on their way out. Younger generations feel that music is free (many of them, not all).There is still a lot of money being spent on... | |
New In 2020 Marshall Chapman - Songs I Can't Live WithoutAtmospheric roots rock. Marshall's voice is showing its age a little, but she can still sing. It's an album of covers that most will be familiar with, but they're done well, and the album sounds great... | |
Tube versus SS Thanks Mike. | |
Tube versus SS @mikelavigne,If you don't need massive amounts of power to run your system would a stand-alone box regenerator be enough? | |
Are CD players goig the way of the 8 track,and the cassette? Considering that there are hundreds of working 8 track players available on ebay right now, some listed as new, I think that we will all be able to buy cd players for as long as we live. |
