| Music that has a hold of me beyond understanding Often Bill Frisell transports me away. Bits of Erik Satie can do it. Art Prpper. | |
| What was your first record? "Blind Faith" from the Record Club of America | |
| Watermelon test for audiophiles! Mark Twain, who famously adored watermelon, described it as the “chief of the world's luxuries… when one has tasted it, he knows what angels eat.” In in the summer, we want nothing more for dessert than watermelon, which contains 92 percent water.... | |
| Speaker and Cable Suggestions Please These, Marrow Audio, will not break the bank. Have on two systems. Cardas Iridium line very good/affordable. | |
| Are higher end preamps worth the investment when you are only streaming Tidal & Spotify ? I’m using a streamer/dac into a Amp designed just for the streamer. Perhaps I drank the Koolaid but it sounds better this way. A buddy uses his steamer the same way too. The rule of thumb that separates are the best way to go in 97.87% (made up ... | |
| Ethernet streaming Separates are generally better BUT the top Aurender and Lumin streamer/DAC’s are terrific and far less $$$ whilst punching above thier weight. There are some others too. Upgrades to one’s room or Ethernet path might be a better solution | |
| About ready to give up on Roon and my streamer I gave up on Roon and then came back at it. You can read gobs about how to get a lot more out of it right here on Agon (how’s ‘dem Apples) forum.

| About ready to give up on Roon and my streamer @cooper52 Have you tired the Roon forum? It's called the Roon Labs Community. I recently had a problem (tuned out to be my network) and the help was first rate. For Roon sound you can also mess with the DSP feature (a sacrilegious thing to some). | |
| A step to the side- Smart TV question Sony. No Baloney. | |
| Pee Wee Herman has passed away Playhouse was the best kids show for adults ever. Cowboy Curtis has come a long way. | |
| As A Youngster, What Unit Puqued Your Interest In All This? My dad had a Mac 275, Mac pre, Thorens TT and Tanny horns. My Mom worked in a reccord store. You can guess the rest. | |
| Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post? @nonoise I’ll be. Folk lore at work. | |
| Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post? @nonoise G R O C H O ( an all important segwayed/hijacked/morphed topic in the name, rank and id number thread) I once read a book of his letters. Much as we do now of going on line in the AM to check things and take care of texts or notes w/ f... | |
| Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post? @nonoise Agree that most everything one does on the web if possible is monetized. The forum side of Agon infromes and supports the buy/sell side and thus the need for those required fill in the blanks. Our digital trails are a regrettable appe... |
