Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers?
It is clear that Zep ripped off Willie Dixon (who also may have ripped off other writers in his stable) and others. That ripoff was direct--- in some cases word for word note for note. But I was and remain a fan. GVF is clearly copying the Zep sou...

So disappointed in today's Americana
Hi Slaw:Hope you enjoy it. It is my personal fave from Brandi. There is also an album of other artists performing the songs on "The Story" which has some great performances and some not so great performances. It's called "Cover Stories" and the fu... 
So disappointed in today's Americana
For those of you who have Brandi's latest album (which I like but which is far from her best), check out "The Story". A truly great album. I always enjoy listening to her voice. 
How important is it for you to attain a holographic image?
Holographic imaging is not the be all and end all of audio. But when your system has excellent timbre, texture, pace and dynamics---and then you tune it in to the nth degree (speaker placement/room treatments) --it can result in holographic imagin... 
Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels
Audiotroy:Please stop selling your gear here. You are getting very tiring in your efforts.

+1 Reubent Wrecking Ball was excellent on cd and even better on vinyl. A very good album. If you like Emmy Lou, check out Teatro by Willie Nelson with Emmy Lou on most songs. It's engineered by Daniel Lanois --sounds great on cd and even better on... 
Thinking about upgrading, but wondering about diminishing returns
Your amp and preamp are very good products. Your front end (cd player and turntable and cartridge) are significantly holding back your system. Even if you spend 15k, the low end or your budget, you can purchase a close to state of the art cd playe... 
Bright or Dim?
I love to dim the lights or turn them off when listening. I enjoy the music more. I hear greater dimensionality and become more attuned to the whole picture, but especially microdynamics. My theory (based on absolutely nothing at all) is that limi... 
Why so many wilson alexias for sale
Every Alexia listing on Audiogon is a dealer listing. i guess mostly if not all the result of the Wilson trade in/up program. 
Brand Signature
As an Audio Research fan (after many years of listening to other manufacturers), I can assure you that the Ref 150 was a huge step up in bottom end and solidity to images from the Ref110--say 20 to 25 percent. The Ref 150SE is another, albeit smal... 
Have you had enough of Classic Rock?
I stopped listening to any station that plays hard rock at least 20 years ago. If I ever have the desire to listen to the old stuff, I just pull out the vinyl and listen. It’s so much more enjoyable when you have not heard it in many years. 
Anyone up for a group visit to Audioconnection?
I might be able to do that. Always fun to see John and Nick. I always learn something.
