| Anyone has a reference system where amplification is SS ? "Yes, there is both right and wrong, you are simply seemingly unaware of it." There is also pompous, condescending and self-absorbed. | |
| Anyone has a reference system where amplification is SS ? I have also heard rumours of non-Rolex watches that can actually keep the correct time. What a bizarre world we live in. | |
| SACD is VERY confusing Never really understood why Sony/Philips did this. Isn't the point to sell SACD's? Making it difficult for people to hear them at their best by putting up roadblocks doesn't seem like much of a business plan. | |
| magnepan @ozzy62 +2 Interesting times. | |
| Fading Background Vocals Conundrum I am impressed with your honesty. If this happened to me, I would probably plead the 5th. That being said, as I get older I have noticed that these types of things are happening to me more frequently than they did previously. I know it's not me,... | |

My wife and I's first real date was to see Woody Herman and his Thundering Herd at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver and it was magical. We also saw Buddy Rich and his band there a few years later and I don't kn... | |
| Getting into the music @ghdprentice Thanks for telling your story. I think you have saved me a lot of money. ;) | |
| Scent of an Audio Store I think you may be on to something there. We know that smell is the sense that is most closely associated with memory and emotion, so why not add it to our listening experience to add a little virtual reality. The smell of gunpowder to go with "... | |
| I Cried Today Acts of humanity are in short supply these days. Thank you for sharing your story. | |
| Audiogon Tech Question US Audio Mart and Canuck Audio Mart also have a save search function that works even when the product doesn't exist for sale on the site. | |
| Does a particular musician’s songwriting and artistry speak to you above all others? There are many that elicit that reaction for me, but it is usually for only a few years or a number of albums. For instance, Elton John from his "Elton John" debut album up to "Captain Fantastic". Linda Ronstadt "Heart Like a Wheel" until "Simp... | |
