| Analysis Plus vs. Audience I have a pair of AU24E's in house now. Using it between my CD and Integrated Amp. It is an interesting cable. The Solos are a bit forward but definitely not bright compared to the AU24E's. The AU24E's bass is more rounded, but I'm not sure which o... | |
| Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase Yeah well, it is what it is. But as pointed out, there are advantages. If you look for them | |
| Speaker imaging Well, I do need a haircut. Will report after the haircut | |
| Once again, recuperating from surgery Dexter a Gordon? Tomorrow. I got the ame on now. | |

| Once again, recuperating from surgery Much better, especially with Way out West spinning | |

Realize that many recordings are mastered wit the sort of typical playback system in mind. That's why something can sound pretty g... | |
| Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase In years past I would install new (or new to me gear) when no one would see new gear bring put on the rack. I would be amused that invariably it would takes even as long as a year for my spouse to notice the new piece, by which time I easily said,... | |
| New $35K pivoting tonearm Picking up on Isochronism's point, I enjoy watches, and am thoroughly disgusted with much of the new market. I don't understand a $5,000 watch in a stainless steel case using a common ETA movement. I would much rather have a vintage Omega or IWC w... | |
| Once again, recuperating from surgery "Does it matter that people we do not know and will never meet think kindly of us in difficult times? I hope it does, and I hope you are, or will soon become, well and happy and that you have people around you who care about you."It matters- it ma... |
