| Help, what's the best "Sticky FIngers?" One of the saddest days in my audiophile life was losing my MFSL copy of Stickey Fingers. This release is just flat out awesome and I beg you to compare 'brown sugar' and 'moonlight mile' to any other release. | |

| Ayre C5xe or APL 3910 ? I heard the Ayre unit a few weeks ago at a local dealer and was greatly impressed with the unit. The true test for me was when the sales rep. played a Reference Recording of Water Music (Ravel?) which didn't make me cringe. Digital playback of pia... | |
| Upgrade from Parasound CDP 2000 ultra Jahaira: If you have any infomation on this I would really appreciate it if you could pass this on. I believe that Mod Wright at one time did do an upgrade. thanks. | |

| Your Wish List for Reissue on Vinyl More Neil Young stuff. Neil was VERY concerned about sound quality on his lp's and it shows. Greendale is avilable on 180g and 200g but I would ike to see some of the older Lp's half mastered such as Hawkes and Doves, Comes a Time, etc..Also, some... | |

| What's your favorite Audiophile label, and why? Viridian, most of the early MSFL releases I have were mastered by Ricker (mastered is appropo here). In Stan we Trust... | |
| What's your favorite Audiophile label, and why? MFSL, although I am stunned that Nrchy would believe that the new releases sound better than the old. FOr my ears, nothing I have ever heard even approaches the quality of the early releases. | |
| Who's Your Favorite Bass Players; Why? Another vote for Dave Holland. An outstanding musician although I have to admit, I'm mildly disappointed with his latest stuff which appears more refined but less interesting. | |

| Best Quality Recording On Vynil MFSL release of American Beauty by Grateful Dead. A real classic. | |
| Which Conrad Johnson pre is a step-up from PFR? I suspect that the PFR was probably the best value product ever offered by CJ. I have no doubt that the Overhang has experienced a superior product with the 16LS2 but for what price - $8000 new and $5k to $6K used on the open market? I consider my... |
