| Must -have SACD's doesn't anyone else find it interesting that ALL the sacd's mentioned are available on other formats; i.e., none of these was recorded or originally mastered using sacd sampling? that, i believe, speaks volumes about this technology and the way it... | |
| How do Swans Divas Speakers Sound? oops! "spakers" = speakers. | |
| How do Swans Divas Speakers Sound? would you seriously buy a pair of spakers based on how they look and the advice you get from a bunch of biased strangers (myself included) ? if so, you'll get exactly what you deserve. it's been said many times yet bares repeating: don't buy it if... | |
| Best Holiday CDs? here are 2: anonymous4, o yoolis night (harmonia mundi-german pressing) ; carols for christmas (ryko-2 cd's-japanese pressing). these are both very good-excellent in performances/sound. | |
| Current CD playes and transports mig007: your responsive post is graciously self-effacing, tho nonetheless, still a bit wrongheaded. let me tell you where i am in this quandry. i own roughly 2000 cd's (and more than 2 1/2x that # of lp's). i currently play my cd's on an accuphase... | |
| Rowland Amps.....which one for me the model 5 and 7's have much the same sound quality ( the monos, of course, have bigger balls) . moreover, a 5 is virtually the same size as 1 model 7. if you have the room and a sufficient number of beefy friends to help position them, i'd go fo... | |

| Feedback on "Boltz" CD racks you might also want to look at billy baggs racks. i have 2 pro-1000's. they are very robust and quite handsome, IMO. | |
| Current CD playes and transports mig007: since you obviously are prescient, perhaps you might share with all us fools what the new format's going to be. i also assume that you advocate we all rid ourselves of our cd collections along with the transports that spin them, right? | |
| Best Gunshots if you don't mind moving off the ersatz-yiddish spelling discussion and getting back to the subject of this post: i recommend the 1985 telarc cd, "ein straussfest." it has some great gun shots, in addition to other amusing sound effects. BTW, kitc... | |

| DQ-10, QUAD, Sound Lab, WAMM,Sequerra NF yet another stupid, meaningless thread by cdcdcdcdcdcdcdcdcd. cut it out; you're degrading the quality of this site to a level below mediocrity. | |
| granite base for speakers why not simply replace your floors with concrete? maybe granite? it'd be much more aesthetically pleasing. my god, who but an 8 footer finds it comfortable to sit on a couch raised half a foot from the floor? com'on guys, this is the sort of stuff... | |
| Is Oracle a copycat of Win Lab TT ? who cares? where do you come up with all these really stupid ideas for threads? |
