| Thoughts/experience with used Thiel speakers Thanks for the input and the email I received. With the Thiels I had there was never a driver problem, but if I do end up with a used pair their past will be a bit of an unknown. | |
| The shams, scams and dead ends of the High Fidelity hobbie/passion/adiction Yes, in this country hobby with a y, but not in all countries/cultures. | |
| Trivializing AudiogoN...........ie: what I have is the best... I am not sure what company made it for them, but for Christmas my parents bought me a protable radio from Mongomery Ward and it was sonically very good. It seemed to have much inside of it (yes I took it apart to look inside). I went through mos... | |
| Trivializing AudiogoN...........ie: what I have is the best... Well........what I have really is the BEST! I have a 9volt transistor radio that I go to sleep with every night, and it is a magical radio that can pick up early 60s rock and roll from "The Big 89" WLS in Chicago, I can listen to Ron Riley, Art R... | |
| Any thoughts or experience on the current and future of FM radio? A decent FM station that is mainly Jazz. https://www.kcck.org/ | |
| Any thoughts or experience on the current and future of FM radio? erik_squires What you point out is the history/magic of radio...the ability to access music that you might learn from, like or dislike and, perhaps, purchase. | |
| Any thoughts or experience on the current and future of FM radio? schubert, thank you for your support of your NPR station. Not to be over dramatic, but NPR is a ray of light in a sea of....well, you know what it is a sea of. | |
| The shams, scams and dead ends of the High Fidelity hobbie/passion/adiction Yes, the Hobbie should have had the "s" I intended. My keyboard is old and having problems with sticking letters and ones that sometimes do not work, like the "s". I will try to be more diligent so as not to cause anyone sleepless nights or ulce... | |
| Your experience with great Jazz guitar CD/SACD discs. I very much agree with the choice of Russell Malone. I was able to see/hear him play two time with Diana Krall. | |
| Your experience with great Jazz guitar CD/SACD discs. I was to see a Jazz guitar concert that featured 4 great players. Joe Pass ended up not being able to play because of ill health. I believe he played an ES-175 | |
| Your experience with great Jazz guitar CD/SACD discs. JIm Hall is worth a listen if you like Jazz guitar. | |
| The shams, scams and dead ends of the High Fidelity hobbie/passion/adiction ..ah yes, the 8-track crosstalk was state of the art. I am so old I remember 4-track tapes before 8-track. Interesting that with the "net", CD, SACD. et. al. the old analog tape recorded then pressed to vinyl LP/album is still the "Sound of (rea... | |
| Any thoughts or experience on the current and future of FM radio? If any of you have local, small college radio stations...I have found some to be a haven for good programing. Like most NPR/independent stations, they will need your support, but ten dollars a year from enough listeners will keep them on the air.... | |
| Any thoughts or experience on the current and future of FM radio? tomic60 makes an excellent and important point. Many of the best radio stations in the U.S. are public radio, meaning public funded. Most of you have likely gone through the drag of a "funding drive", but that is the public part of public radio.... | |
| Trivializing AudiogoN...........ie: what I have is the best... Hi DeKay, Just kind of thinking out loud. I have, esp. in my younger days, wanted to think anything I had was the best, from cars, to audio...and I am sorry to say, even the mate I had. When I had a fair amount of money and power I fell into the... |
