I still like cerebral funk...even when derivative of itself. 
Avett Brothers Fans/ The Carpenter?
As a cynical geezer musician I find it refreshing in a pop world dominated by hippity hop, Swift banality, Beiber, and Gaga, that a couple of dudes who can sing, play really well, and care about a high energy show are getting some air time. Unfort... 
What frequency do I crossover subs
I think chicken heads are science at its best. 
What frequency do I crossover subs
I replaced all the knobs on my current fave guitar amp with Chicken Heads so I can see the settings instantly. I say Chicken Heads for everybody! It just makes sense. 
What frequency do I crossover subs
Weirdly, the point nobody ever seems to make regards the fact that recorded music has vastly disperate bass levels. I stuck a "chicken head" knob (left over from a guitar amp) on the gain pot on the back of my REL sub so I can (easily) adjust the ... 
Pro amps for home use?
If you drive your Krell to "just before clipping" you have really inefficient speakers, you're drunk and dancing your ass off, or you like to listen while outside running your leaf blower. 
Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time
Again...your car runs better when warmed up...leave it running. You can afford it, and really...who cares? Your oven...warmed up and ready for that pie...even if you don't make pies...ya kever know. Leave it on. If we kept our windows open while r... 
Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time
It is important to check your butt for deer ticks...Brad Paisley even wrote a song about it (sort of). And I'm not surprised people leave their gear on all the time, I'm surprised anybody admits it. 
Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time
I also think there are too many people so I did my part by having only one kid, and with any luck she won't wind up as a dreary childless old woman sadly ranting about other people's progeny while boasting about wasting electricity on her pets. I ... 
Pro amps for home use?
I think there has to be a distinction between "pro" amps designed for live sound reinforcement and those used for monitoring...basically hifi in a studio. I currently use and old "bullet proof" Alesis RA100 for my studio as it doesn't need a fan a... 
Pro amps for home use?
You can use pro amps with home speakers, but amps designed for home use are often (much) better sounding, usually have more appropriate connections (5 way posts, etc.), and are quieter. I have thousands of watts of pro stuff around (musician, live... 
Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time
This is the first time I've had much agreement with one of my energy rants...a good sign. 
Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time
Turn it off. NO excuses. It's lame to leave things on all the time, wake up, get in the 21st century you wasteful laggards! Use the time it takes for your gear to warm up for something useful...charity work, gardening, flossing, put the LPs back i... 
Most Musical amp?
Newest version MD factory upgrade/modded Jolida JD502P...voted "Most Musical Amp in My House" by myself, and cost way less than the competition. I also have had many (many) amps, but this one takes the proverbial cake...note the almost complete la... 
What are your favorite phono cartridges?
I switched from the AT to a Sumiko Pearl...and am happy happy happy.
