| Biggest Live Miss 23 years ago today............ OK, I wasn't old enough to make Woodstock, was supposed to see Led Zeppelin the year JB died, and the show obviously was cancelled, but the one I really kick myself for is Stevie Ray Vaughan.

| Sony 9000es v. Phillips 963SA - anyone compared? For what it's worth, I got the Philips DVD 963SA from J&R music world for $370 shipped three months ago!!! It's redbook is pretty good, very smooth, but no where near the dynamics of my Linn Ikemi, but for the money, probably unbeatable. Krell... | |
| TV selections I also was waiting out the HD standard, but just dropped my 32" Proscan on it's face while getting the house painted, so I had to buy a new TV. I had been in the market so to speak for over five years, and theres not a TV Ive not seen nor read... | |

| Flea market or serious audio deals? I have been using A-gon for a few years, and built almost my entire system from it. I think it all comes down to what the market will bear....Case in point, I had a Linn Ikemi, which I sold for $2000 or 55% of retail. I don't feel that was a bad d... | |
| What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics. Cpdunn99...you are amazingly close.Inagaddagavida was actually written by half of Iron Butterfly when they where in Europe. Wanting to get the rest of the band to learn the song before they got home they called them and sang it to them over a rath... | |
| Best of dvd-audio and sacd discs? As far as DVD Audio, nothing I've heard comes close to ELP Brain Salad Surgery....the album was made for multichannel! | |

| Linn activ cards installation Both myself and a local friend have done this on our own, as we hate the local Linn dealer. It's not too difficult. I did it with 5105's and 5140's, so I had to remove the crossovers too. I think the Ninka's have the newer crossovers that allow yo... | |
