| If you could, what live performances would you enjoy re-living? Dekay, I can relate to a performer simply dropping into a place and putting on a show. I was at a wonderful, classic vacation area at an upscale "Yacht Club" and a famous comedian came in and was simply having fun and helping us all have fun. ... | |
| Best "Bang for the Buck" you have owned? As for the "Pamela" comments, the prettiest women I have been with or married to were more expensive than any audio gear I have ever owned...including items like the CJ ART. | |
| If you could, what live performances would you enjoy re-living? You know, I was in a Jazz/somewhat Pop mindset and did not mention classical greats. I am lucky enough to have seen many greats in my life, from New York to Chicago to many a college campus.I and my mate attended a performance by the Chicago class... | |
| If you could, what live performances would you enjoy re-living? ...as an unusual side note, When I saw James Taylor and then Jackson Browne, one of the backup singers was Valerie Carter...and as Steve Winwood sang "Valerie" and as Jackson Browne sang "that girl could sing".

| Memory Lane and Lust/Looks...even somewhat strange ones.... ..a very non politically correct joke..... What is the difference between having a pretty woman and a pretty Ferrari? In the long run the Ferrari is cheaper and more reliable. My experience somewhat mirrors that thought. | |
| Audiophiles must be careful with their remotes, vs. items on ebay. Yes, using both Audiogon and AudiogoN was one of Arnie's last attempts to leave his mark or franc or peso on the site.... | |
| Need some help/information on a Denon & Mission system I gave my son. Riley, located the answer. Take care. | |
| Top Audiophile companies over the last 60, or so, years..your choices? Yes, Advent and the remarkable Mr. Kloss. I watched an old video tape format of Blazing Saddles on the first prototype of the VideoBeam in the Drake Hotel an evening of CES. The early days of "hi-fi" had some......ahh, unusual personalities at t... | |
| During this isolation, I would be interested in suggestions of great movies you like. And I do have some that people will Po-Po......likely the most Po would come when I admit I like Steve McQueen films. McQueen and Newman in the "Towering Inferno" is commercial trash....and I have watched a half dozen time...including on release.... | |
