New Enya Album
Enya was member of Clannad for 2 years, which also had her brother and sister as members. She left the group to do soundtrack for BBC documentry called "The Celts" which later became her first album. 
speaker cable
TubeG, before you buy the MIT speaker cable you may want to try MIT ICs first, then if you want do MIT IC and speaker cables. I think dollar for dollar you get best performance increase with ICs. My system has MIT 330 ICs with bi-wire AP Oval 9 sp... 
Classe integrated or Musical Fidelity?
The design of the A3 and A300 is the same except for the larger power supplies and the A300 has different speaker cable binding posts, BTW I would like to know what reviewer said the A3 was not a good product......I have never seen a review that w... 
SunfireTheater Grand ???
Sean, not to change the subject but where did you get the Mobile Spec cables Issabre is raving about, do they really cost $15 a pair? No info on internet, I believe you said in past posts you like Geortz cables, are these Mobile Spec really as goo... 
MISSING THE POINT?
The best way to find new music is on large music store sites like Amazon.com Go to a CD you like and find what other people who bought that CD bought, and see lists of other suggested groups you would like. Every CD has real audio samples and each... 
Why do digital cables sound different?
It all boils down to this, all cables distort/degrade/alter the original signal. The best cable is no cable. The best cables, regardless if they are cheap or expensive, are the ones that transport the signal with the least distortion. It seems sil... 
New version of MF "A3" int. amp.
Dec issue of Hi Fi News has full review of new NuVista M3. It does use nuvistors, MF had enough in storage to release this product. It is dual mono and does use choke regulated power. Power tranformers are in seperate remote case, styling is simil... 
best mahler no. 5
Kevziek is correct that Bernstein has some excesses and idiosyncrasies, not the least of which is on good system you can hear him humming to himself on occasion. I have always wondered since Mahler was very concerned with religion, and his music o... 
Stones Remasters
Just to clear up confusion as Kira said all Virgin label Stones albums were remastered, these are albums from "Exile on Main St" to present. There were limited edition cardboard "album replica" Stones Virgin CDs which are now hard to find. The reg... 
best mahler no. 5
Many new ones have come out in last couple years, my primary recommendation is 1988 Bernstein/DG like Sugarbrie, a live recording that is very compelling, also own 1969 Barbirolli/EMI. The new 1998 Chailly/Decca has been very positively reviewed r... 
speaker cable
I agree with Joe C., use Cable Co loaner program and try some Analysis Plus Oval 9, I use double runs in my system, and I prefer the cooper version to the silver oval. Very reasonable price, will give you rich full sound, these replaced highly rat... 
New Enya Album
After listening to whole album, this is worth buying. As is typical with Enya a couple tracks are instrumental pieces. No new ground broken here, "shepard moon" remains best album to date followed by "watermark". Sound quality of new album is same... 
New Sade Album
Well I just got CD and Corn.F.B was right, this album is a bust. Flat one dimensional drum machine/program beats and bland overall sound. Nothing like the tight lively synchopated soulful beats of "diamond life". What a dissapointment, Sade hersel... 
Your Listening chair
I agree with david 99, lets not make this overly complicated, couch with extra throw pillows. Throw pillow behind the head for headrest. 
Best Mahler Third
PLS there is no doubt that Horenstein sustains the "long line" in the final movement better than anyone else. Magnificent sustained build up, kettle drums providing impressive drive and power, one of my favorite Mahler 3rds. It is a shame that the...
