| Another musical "heads up".... Bgrazman,I was listening to a few Beatles' albums on my one day off this past week. John's vocal on "Baby It's You" from the Early Beatles lp is incredible. This particular album cut has great sonics with good slam. Other highlights from my Beatle... | |

| A musical "heads up" to any and all... Great to hear everyone's varying opinions so far. That to me is what makes music and art so beautiful and interesting. As far as Nickel Creek, I became a fan after hearing "The Smoothie Song" on WXRT in Chicago a few years back. Bought the cd then... | |
| Any Bob fans out there? I concur with all of the above. "Body of Song" is a great piece of work. Sonically speaking I've only listened to the cd (can't get it outta my car either!) Bob's guitar sound like they're coming from all directions. BTW, I think of Bob's "Workboo... | |

| Best cheap integrated for Ascend CBM-170's. Hendro,First of all, the Ascend Acoustics CBM-170's are great little speakers. Just make sure to get some good speaker stands, preferably one's that can be sand or shot filled, and the correct height for your listening position. Anyway, as far as ... | |
| Best under $2000.00 : Denon,Marantz,Onkyo,Pioneer? Daltonlanny,I have had a Marantz DV8300 for well over a year now and I really think it's a great overall sounding piece.
