Emmylou Harris - All I Intended to be - Love this
I agree she is fabulous - one of my very favourites. I have tickets to see the Three Girls and a Guy in Va in May. She always puts on a great show and is incredibly gracious. Love her stuff with Kate and Anna McGarrigle backing her up as well. 
Budget floorstanders under $500 ?
I found a pair of Vandersteen 1c - just barely broken in, here on Audiogon for $550. They'd be great for the kind of music you like. 
Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path?
Okay here is your Monday night laugh at the "girl"!!!I took what Mapman had to say and checked everything out again when I got home tonight. I rehooked everything as he said it should be and still no sound....looked things over carefully again and... 
Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path?
With that set up there was no sound and the blue light on the Theta did not light up indicated that it was locked on.with my current configuration both blue lights are lit up on the Theta. I guess since it works all is well, just leaves a lingerin... 
Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path?
Okay, I think I may still be wired up wrong here! Originally I hooked the Theta to the integrated amp via Kimber Kable interconnect and then the Theta and the Squeezebox via digital coax. The result was no sound at all. Now I have the Squeezebox h...

These were my first "serious" speakers - I think my brother still is using them. 
Squeezebox and Theta DAC
thanks, I appreciate the comments. I guess what I am really trying to tease out here is if the Cambridge DAC would be an upgrade or a just a lateral move from the Theta?? 
Sunday morning music...what's spinning?
Finally got the Squeezebox up and running through the Theta DAC.....enjoying some Diana Krall this rainy Sunday! 
WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder?
oh my thanks for reminding me of Pop Pop. I've had it playing much of the day and just ripped it using Apple Lossless, glad to hear some of you don't hear huge differences. I can handle re ripping everything to Lossless.........Yes that CD is grea... 
Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path?
Okay, just so I am clear, I hook the Theta to the amp say to aux 1, then the Theta to the Squeezebox with the digital coax and then when I use the aux input for the Theta to play through the amp, the Squeezebox will be a part of that?thanks so muc... 
Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path?
Integrated amp will be used. So then I use the aux for between the Theta and the amp. then the Squeezebox goes into another line level....and it is connected to the Theta and so to play the Squeezebox with the Theta engaged I use the aux button on... 
Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path?
Okay, this is probably perfectly obvious and perhaps I am just having a senior moment here, but I have a set up question. I will be hooking up a squeezebox to my amp, probably to the "disc" outputs or aux , cd is being used for cd player. Now I wa... 
WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder?
thanks guys, I'll start ripping! 
WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder?
You guys are leagues ahead of me in this, but please take time out to answer a woman's question regarding this, new to me, technology.We have ripped our cd's to itunes at 256...now we want to go to Apple Lossless...I think this necessitates re - r... 
Thoughts on the best bang for the buck
I have been wondering about the Decco amp as well. I have just purchased a pair of Vandersteen 1C's and am looking to replace an old Onkyo amp. This is a secondary system that will have a Squeezebox attached to it. Someone suggested a little NAD i...
