My New Large Advents
Those Advents sure had (have) a following. If I remember correctly, the proper speaker stand for Large Advents would be a pair of milk crates. Spent many hours with them. I have the pair of Frazier Concertos I bought back in the day, got a few oth... 
Who believes that Robert Plant
Am I the only one voting for Boy George?

How to use headphones on Rotel rsp-1066
I use a Little Dot III tube headphone amp which is a decent preamp too.I also bought a little cmoy to use for portable sound. A cmoy is a simple little circuit powered by a 9volt battery and usually housed in an Altiod type tin. You can find them ... 
How to use headphones on Rotel rsp-1066
It's not clear what you want to listen to, CDs? The Rotel has no headphone output so you don't need to use the Rotel at all, you need a headphone amp running directly from your source, the cdp. 
Tannoy Monitor Gold series power input
Better to have too much power than too little. An amp over- driven into clipping is a speaker killer. The Tannoys are high efficiency drivers so they will get loud with little power. Just don't play them crazy loud and your amp will not hurt the s... 
Objective vs. Placebo relating to system changes
Definitely maybe. 
Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa-"Don't Explain"
Coming to grips with the sound of this cd. I have had bad experiences with several recent cds lately. Clairy Browne's for one, was so harsh I returned it. Unfortunately, I love the music.

underrated or unheard of musician/band
Re-read the original post and got me thinking. Was listening to the Hacienda Brothers' debut album today, great band, straight up honkytonk/country rock. A strange mix of Mex and techno: Nortec Collective. "Tijuana Sessions Vol 3 is my favorite. A... 
"NEWEST'" Favorite album
Received "Mexican Moon" today. Of all of the ways I hoped this band would go, they Rock Out Heavy exactly in the way I hoped they would. I am not a metal head, I have a certain standard when it comes to Hard Rock.Just want to say as someone who ju... 
underrated or unheard of musician/band
Back again, miss me? I've been listening to three very different female artists lately: Brandi Carlile "The Story", "Bloodletting" by Concrete Blonde with lead singer/bass Johnette Napolitano, and Nina Hagan "NUNSEXMONKROCK".First to last could no...
