How do you feel about your system?
No Carl don't know who jj is but you got part of it right. Brian Wilson remastering of "Pet Sounds" in "Living Stereo" can you believe it? (CD unfortunately) Of all the albums made in the rock era, that is one that should have been recorded in ste... 
How do you feel about your system?
Carl, Merry X-mas and a best New Year to you. I hope you find that woman that has at least half the passion you demonstrate in your love of audio and music. Best to you. 
The Beatles
Jadem6 Obviously you never heard Pat Boone sing "April Love" with "101 Strings" in the support mode. Just kidding but couldn't resist and I do agree with the way the Beatles used orchestra, Tin Pan Alley style and completely until then mixes that ... 
Any good.... JPS
Samuel's advice is solid. I couldn't agree more. So far as the dealers noted, I personally have dealt with Galen Carol and found him quite informative, fair and willing to give a 5 day in home trial before you decide. I really like the way he cond... 
Help learn diff.between SS and Tube
Well I take that back cornfedboy. There is no way I can afford a 50k amp from Boulder. I'm sure the accuphase is in the same ballpark. In any event I don't really require that type of power with the Merlins. By all accounts they are better suited ... 
The Beatles
Hi Dekay in answer to your question Here is the Who's who list of musicians on "All Things Must Pass" Drums and Percussion - Ringo Starr, Jim Gordon, Alan White; Bass - Klaus Voormann, Carl Radle; Keyboard - Gary Wright, Bobby Whitlock, Billy Pres... 
The Beatles
Well Shubertmaniac if you hear classical form in Bruckner's music I fail to see where. Classical form is so obvious to me and is readily identified. Certainly it can be heard in the music of many of the Romantic era composers. Schuberts structural... 
The Beatles
Dekay I believe George DID play it on the White Album and Clapton played it on "All Things Must Pass" album, George's first solo. And Shubertmaniac right, you can't get the spelling right which means you've probably unscrewed too many bottles of B... 
Help learn diff.between SS and Tube
I'm certainly not going to dispute what you hear cornfedboy since you have a 70k system and obviously have been at this for a while. I also don't pretend that I have heard all the best there is. Living in Central Florida, there aren't too many hig... 
The Beatles
Yes Dekay I agree. Who ever says the Beatles weren't good musicians I say you've got to be kidding!!, Great musicians as a cohesive whole. 
The Beatles
Shubertmaniac you know something for the life of me I just don't get Anton Bruckner. To me his music is just longer than it needs to be, read "longwinded". But there are many that love him. I'm still trying, maybe someday. I guess if you don't lik... 
Your 5 Fav Rock Concerts
Yeah Joe_B I saw Loggins and Messina 2 times 1st time in Phila when they opened for I don't remember who (at the Spectrum) in the early 70's were unknown and stole the show and that 1976 tour with Fleetwood Mac when they were the Featured Act. You... 
Isolation for turntables
Two solutions, wall mount it, which is the easiest. If you have a crawl space or basement under the floor (joist and frame construction) it would't hurt to beef up the floor under the turntable. Those joists need reinforcement with a couple of pie... 
"Burn in" Are you serious?
Do we know the boundaries of quantum physics? Did Max Planck explain it fully or just make us aware of its existence for others to expand on? Will we ever understand it fully? Yes indeed Bmpnyc here we go round and round in the "Circle Game". I ag... 
Greatest Guitar Band
Well everyone has given their take on the rockers and blues guys and I would give a ditto on most of the above, particularly the Dead and Allman Brothers prior to the untimely death of Dwayne of course. Saw them both before and the very first conc...
