| Cd's to make a come back in the future? The good thing is that we don't have to select only one or two formats. We can enjoy each of them for their best qualities. What I like about streaming is the access to all that music for $20 a month. Every Friday morning all the new releases a... | |

| Great sounding 'newer' Jazz Recording from 2010 I think the fact that it was recorded live in the studio is one of the factors that makes it sound good. On too many recordings the players never actually see each other. Electronic files are collected and processed into an album. | |
| Cd's to make a come back in the future? I don't know. The future is hard to predict. There are so many of them around that you'd think that someone will think that it's cool to have physical media and an antique cd player to play them on. On the other hand, digital is progressing ste... | |

| Looking for great tube integrated for Martin Logan Summit X speakers There are a lot of people who say MLs sound best with tubes but my experience is that they do better with lots of power. I never tried them with tubes.I had Summit Xs powered by Pass XA30.8s and they sounded great to me. The 30.8 I believe puts ... | |
| Sources for Focal 1038Be II They have been showing up here new and used quite a bit. Check out the HiFi Shark site, which is a search engine for audio sales. If you use it, set the filter for North America or you'll get a lot of overseas listings. | |
| The Tragic Decline of Music Literacy (and Quality) You’re right, chrshanl37, why are you doing that very thing? Two more points. Most of us don't do it 24/7 and we can listen to music while we check in on Audiogon.schubert, except for Franz Schubert, of course. |
