| I need serious help with speakers I am in your shoes Jamiegisi (except for the B&K that is). I am leaning a little more towards 2-channel, so I am going with the JM Labs cobalts. I watched a couple movies with the dealer on a Saturday (Boy, it sure is nice to find a dealer wit... | |
| Quality Rock/Pop CD recordings Try the latest solo record from Mark Knopfler...Sailing to Philidelphia. Really good record. Does a tune with James Taylor, one with Van Morrison and two with Gillian Welch.Z | |
| "RECORDING OF THE WEEK"????? So it's been a few days, and I really hope this thread keeps a head of steam to it...I have checked out a few of the suggestions above, and whereas none gave me those tingles everyone here is sure to know, I am always glad to check out new stuff.T... | |
| "RECORDING OF THE WEEK"????? I will throw Jay Webber's new CD into the mix, 'I Can See'. Jay is a Nothern Michigan small town singer/songwriter, which admittedly is more 'campfire' music than anything else (at least I have witnessed this more than once, and he's really good a... | |

| Is there an end.......ever? Gumbydammit,I bought Chris Thiel's CD probably 4 months ago (before I ever heard of Nickel Creek actually), and it still gets a LOT of airplay on my commute.Good tip regarding Sean Watkins...I just went out and bought it. If you have any other jaz... | |
| Is it just me? "The Heart Of Saturday Night"....I am on my second copy of this disk, as the first one stopped playing...never had that happen to me before.I try to make copies as much as possible now.Z | |
| What group do you wish would be remastered? Doc Watson would be a good one for me. | |
| Is there an end.......ever? Mikelavigne,I too have recently 'connected' (great word) with just those two CDs. If fact, I just bought plane and concert tickets to see Nickel Creek in September. I wish I could find music like that a little more often...I go to the music stores... | |

| Am I going insane? Inscrutable,What are impedence drops? And, I am planning on running a sub (actually the dealer suggested Earthquake, but I thought the little Velodyne sounded pretty good, and it would mostly be used for movies anyway).Please don't tell me this is... | |
| Best female vocals on CD So I'm sure a bunch (all?) read stererophile, and this month they reviewed a ABSOLUTE WINNER in Noarh Jones. I actually picked up this CD about 2 months ago, when it first hit the stands. I go to the Music dept. of Borders frequently, and they had... | |
| Am I going insane? I listened to the speakers I will be buying today...JMLabs Cobalt 826s. I listened to them being pushed from a Denon reciever, and everything was good. These speakers are so efficient, I can run them (quite well) from a reciever. I just wanted to ... | |
| Speakers Needed: Audiophile Taste - Low Budget I listened to the Boston Acoustic VR-M60s, with the matching center and surrounds, and they sounded pretty good from a reciever. They are a bit expensive new, but once in a while I see them here used. If you are in a smaller room, they might work ... | |
| Am I going insane? Greetings.I listed to the Bostons today at another dealer. They were not setup in a listening room like the first time, and were being pushed by a Parasound amp. Needless to say, they sounded much different. Not nearly as cozy as the little room t... |
