| Tried and true recommendations: headphones, amp, source My headphone recommendation is for Stax electrostatics. I have used them for many years and appreciate their clear, fast sound. As far as the price, there are many combinations of phones and amps to choose from. As an example, today on Audiogon I ... | |
| Nakamichi Dragon Tape decks, like cars, can break down over time. Luckily, there are a few true experts around the country. Willy Hermann's garage and workshop are graveyards for Nakamichi decks. He repairs many, but some are simply there for parts. I know there a... | |
| John Hiatt and The Jerry Douglas Band hit the road! Has anyone heard the new album? Comments? | |
| BEWARE OF FRAUD with this member Thanks for naming the culprit. So often, members here are reluctant to name the scammer. I have never been scammed here or or on any other site. I prefer to deal locally, cash only, but if I buy here on Audiogon or other sites, I always check the ... | |
| How to remove scotch tape brown residue from album covers All album covers are probably not the same, but I've been successful using "Goo Gone" (available everywhere). Just don't let it sit on the paper too long! | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Leonard Cohen "Live in London" (3-Record set) | |
| John Hiatt and The Jerry Douglas Band hit the road! I checked the website for tickets. While they’ll be on the west coast (CA, OR, WA), ) they won’t be coming to Arizona. Oh well, if center orchestra tickets run $499, I’ll get over it. I’ll buy the LP at Barnes & Noble. | |

I only have about 250, even if you count the double disc albums. I only add if I see something interesting. I was in an antique store recently and fo... | |
| A Word About SkyFi audio Customer Service SkyFi seems to be clearing out their closet on "New Today". I was alerted to their ads by their prices. I’ll admit that many of their items are classics, but so are their prices. LOL! | |

| Van Morrison Latest Record Project Van Morrison is like Bob Dylan... sometimes great, sometimes not as great but always worth a listen. I've been a fan since "Moondance" and "Astral Weeks". | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Talking Heads "Stop Making Sense" David Byrne is a genius. I’m no fanboy but if you don’t have this CD, you should get it! | |
| What tracks offer the best left right separation? Some of the early Beatles records had singing in one channel, music in the other. Now, that was separation! | |
| Does Steely Dan sound bright to you? Steely Dan’s "Aja" has always been my reference while listening to vinyl. In fact, I even enjoy the CD version. Is it too bright? Who cares, I love the SD sound. Donald Fagen’s "The Nightfly" is also a favorite. | |
| THE WORST SELLERS FOR ANSWERING QUESTIONS, Audiogon, Audiomart, E-bay.....Others I have bought a lot of stuff here on Audiogon over the years, and never been scammed. However, I have had instances where the seller failed to leave feedback, despite a successful sale. If they are members here, and obviously they are if they are ... |
