What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report
mmb - Thanks for those titles.  I just sampled them on Spotify.  The sound quality on all 3 is very good.  The musicianship seems first class.  Thanks again.   
Static noise help please
Eddie - I'm guessing you will be wanting to try a "double-headed" USB cable that separates signal from power.  The one from iFi (Gemini Dual Headed USB cable $265 for 1.5M on Amazon) is kind of pricey, I think.  There are some lower cost options. ...

radfrad - Excellent.  What RG did you order?

Hello again 77....Interesting you mention Bolin w/Cobham. I’m actually, as I write, listening to Bolin on Alphonse Mouzon’s "Mind Transplant" and, earlier today, saved Cobham’s "Spectrum" (all this courtesy of Spotify) - so I will listen to that l...

Hey there 77...will do.  I'm a fan of James Gang...well at least while Joe Walsh was there.  Don't know them after Thirds. 
Static noise help please
Spencer - Wasn't trying to generalize about all Gungnirs - but can see how what I wrote could be understood that way.  Had I written "The Gungnir in MY system does not have a USB input.", things would definitely have been clearer.   Good clarifica... 
Static noise help please
Hello again Eddy.  I use a Macbook Air into a Gungnir via USB but it isn't connected directly.  In between there is a V-Link USB/SPDIF converter.  The Gungnir does not have a USB input.  No noise.  Things are very quiet.  You might try calling or ...

Yup - Glenn Huges has quite a discography.  He's been in the biz since 1969 apparently...so that's nearly 50 years.  I never followed DP closely.  Only spent time with their In Rock and Machine Head - missed GH's involvement with them. tune-man, I...

Just finished Music for the Divine, all I can say is "Why was I not told about Glenn Hughes way sooner!"

N - I was totally clueless about Glenn Hughes.  Had to look him up on Wikipedia and found a LOT of his stuff on the Spot (that's Spotify for all those Tidal-loving haters...hahaha)...anyway - WOW!  The dude has certainly got some pipes!  Volume, r... 
Static noise help please
Eddy - haven't experienced what I consider "static" from tubes but definitely a few random pops soon after start up that eventually turned into tube failure... an EL34 power tube.  Static to me is a more prolonged sound, sort of a rapid, lower vol... 
Speaker Cable trial
Stringreen - You are very welcome.  Give Paul a call.  He'll pick up and is generous with his time.  Always nice to chat with another enthusiast.  Get a pair to trial.  Only way for you to know for sure.  Good luck.   
Now Keith Emerson is gone...
jsd - 2016 is certainly off to a start as a terrible year for losses among popular musicians...not that 2015 was so good.  Anyway, while I can't say I've played ELP's first the most of anything in my collection, I can say I do like it a lot and wi... 
Speaker Cable trial
Yeesh, Stringreen, no offense, but I'm a bit surprised at your inquiry given all the server space taken up with wire discussions and the fact that Clear Day gets mentioned regularly.  On the other hand, you're a veteran around these parts so I ass...

Love Rory too....more than Robin, actually (no offense radfrad). Check out Irish Tour ’74, Nutty. It used to be uploaded to YouTube. If not, it is certainly worth getting although it’s not hi-res or anything but still a great concert movie. Really...
