Spica TC-50 Owners out there? I've had two pair for over 20 years, never blown a woofer and I have played them loud.. my 2nd pair were the later incarnation with internal brace and supposidly higher power handling and slightly different felt covering on front. I wouldn't worry... | |
Anyone Familiar With These Infinity QLS 1s? I just took a look at the listing and I think I know why he wants $2500... I have NEVER seen a pair in this just about perfect condition.. they look very good and drivers incl. watkins woofer look perfect, from what I can see..I've seen a few of t... | |
Bruce Cockburn: Slice O Life Hmmm I might want to check this out..Myself and another friend of mine have been following Bruce "the OTHER Bruce" for something like 25 years, but I have lost track of him since maybe the mid 90's so I don't know what he's been up to..My favorite... | |
Jeff Beck "performing this week" OMG wow sounds great.. i gotta check it out... | |
Beyond Chutzpah Yeah I saw that ad also.. actually wouldn't mind checking out the ESS speakers. But you can keep the SAE.. had one we used for a PA amp.. that's all it was good for.. My Forte 1a mopped the floor with it. | |

Nightline- vinyl segment Yeah I saw that last night.. only they did not show anything "high end" or "audiophile" quality.. just 70's type DD tables, S-arms, and cheapo DJ cartridges. They were clueless... | |
What Vintage Speakers/Marantz Hoffy5,Yes you are right.. the Snell EIII's do so much right and are fun, have a fairly big sound without harshness or irritation, and although in no way are perfect or up to snuff with the super detailed crowd they rock. | |
Any opinions on John McLaughlins last album? "The music lacks soul." I'd say there is some truth to this only in the last decade or so.. I just bought "Industrial Zen" and while energetic, nothing new here.. same ol fusion jams without really going anywhere memorable. Now contrast that exper... | |
Your Thoughts on a CD Player Ditto Apollo or Rega Jupiter 2000 which are quite a few on the market. | |
Best $5,000 system for a small apt. in Stockholm Rega Apollo, Rega Mira 3, Rega R-1 speakers. simple, musical, cost effective... Cables? I like Cardas Golden Cross or Hexlink 5C but those will cost ya..IPOD? they suck. |
