| Magnavox or RCA tube amp It depends on what your objective of fun seeking is and whether these amps meet it. Do you have a nostalgic affinity for them or do you want to build something? If you aren’t wedded to these amps for some reason and just want to tweak a tube amp,... | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? @baffler65, Yes, I agree. That was one major point I was trying to make. LZ sounded nothing like the artists they stole from. Is there some irony here that another group is copying them? Some for sure. But the copying here is style of arrangements... | |
| Can we hear from those who essentially repurchased previous system? Thank you for the responses! I was curious about this and love hearing the anecdotes. I should've guessed so about the Quads! That makes total sense. I also love the term "recidivist gear"! | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? Well said Wolf! | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? The reviews are both serious and funny. I listened to Memphis Minnie and Bukka White on my ride home. Zeppelin did not copy anything but their lyrics and general chord progressions. The arrangements, production, vocals, and so on were theirs. That... | |
| Back to the drawing board I bought a REL T9i just a couple weeks ago. I cannot comment on SVS or paradigm or rymthik. I didn't audition any others than REL--full disclaimer. But I do have a small Sumiko (similar to REL). So, we must keep in mind that I've only heard h... | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? I checked in with my friends who love music. They are evenly split on their opinions—like versus skip them. I’m closer on the spectrum to these opinions. https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/greta-van-fleet-anthem-of-the-peaceful-army/https://www.... | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? My brain wants me to sing “Your Time is Gonna Come” during “Flower Power”. It’s so uncanny a resemblance. | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? While Zeppelin stole and borrowed, they didn’t copy. I don’t think Plant or Page tried to sound just like Bukka White, Wllie Dixon or the countless others they stole from. I’m making a nuanced but important point. Listen to the production. Listen ... | |
| Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers? Agreed teo_audio! To be clear, I love Zeppelin. I respect how good of musicians these guys are, but the LZ body of work stands on its own. I don't need more bands like LZ. | |
| What Is Better In General, Sonos Or Say A Network Streamer By Cambridge Audio? +1 on Bluesound. The sound and features are fantastic. I think the software could be better though. | |
| why a high end phono preamp? A quality phono preamp makes a huge difference. I didn't hear vinyl for what it could be until I got a great one. I don't think you have to spend a fortune but it is a necessity if you want great sounding vinyl. I think a lot of folks get into ... | |
| Am I asking too much? I feel for you! I hope you get this figured out. I would not like or tolerate substantial levels of hiss. I had a problem with a ground hum before, but never audible hiss. Can you try someone else's amp? | |
| What are your notes and thoughts on The Beatles White Album Giles Martin remaster? Geoffkait, are you a hipster buying casettes!!?? | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon Man, I hate to violate two of my own soft rules on posting but here goes. 1. (Being a Fanboy Rule): Look at the AudioTechnica ART9. It's a superb moving coil cartridge. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Do some research and see what is said ... |
