| If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck PS - the funkier than all get out sax player in that clip of Tower of Power was Lenny Pickett who was only 19 years old at that time they recorded that album. He was just 17 when he joined Tower of Power and when they hit it big in 1971 and were... | |
| If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck Astewart8944Nice to see you taking an interest and interacting with your kids music and expanding both of your musical tastes. I love hearing new stuff. I too thought it was reminiscent of the Jackson Five and like your reference to the Brother... | |
| Ugraditus is calling....again. Phono stage? @invictus005,I saw your post on searching for the Holy Grail phono stage and your belief that most are terrible and that 6922s are bright and tube-based phono stages have mushy bass. Not saying your experiences are wrong as many tube-based compo... | |

| Amps/Preamps for Rockport Aviors Congrats on such a great and wise purchase! Given that a choice of amps is dependent on a multitude of both system matching as well as room and music preferences and, since it also involves personal tastes, you should take anything I say in that... | |
| Is this a disgrace to the Industry ? Mgreen27, You are correct. I guess I missed the part of the video that showed that this gizmo still dragged a needle through the grooves. I saw the banner in the ad that said it played the music without any damage and thought it was based on a ... | |
| Is this a disgrace to the Industry ? As noted above, this is not a new idea. I reviewed the "high-end" version of a laser or digital turntable -- The $19,000.00 ELP Corporation LT-2XRC Laser Turntable -- over a decade ago (see link below). Just a quick note - for those of y... | |

| Rockport Aquila vs Altair I own (and reviewed) the Aquilas and the suggestions and opinions on this thread are all correct. If your room is larger, then you will likely be much more able to justify the price difference and take advantage of what the Altair can do than if y... | |
| You're selling that? But you just got it My wife is the smartest audiophile wife on the planet (OK, so maybe she's just a hell of a lot smarter than me which clearly doesn't take much). When we started dating, I made sure to fully inform her about my "hobby" and its insanity. I wanted he... |
