| Top Ten Rock Vocalists Usually these lists just turn into a list of everyone that everyone can think of.Maybe the OP needs to do a tally?For me, Freddie Mercury tops the list by far. He had it all. I'm not even a huge Queen fan so to me it isn't just about what I like. ... | |
| What unknown musical artist would you like to share with your fellow audiophiles? I agree with bdp24 in regard to being a music lover and an audiophile. Being an audiophile puts icing on the cake but the cake is the music. I have enjoyed and been moved by music coming out of the crudest devices since I can remember.My unknown a... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Why would multi-thousand dollar components come without adequate power cables? In fact, presuming power cables do make a significant difference, why wouldn't a $5-10k amp or pre-amp have just exactly the right power cable for its specific design? ... | |

| New $24,000 inter-connect I disagree with the idea that if you have lots of money you should be prone to, obligated to or dumb enough to buy things that are idiotic. Granted, being ultra-rich does seem to make some people very stupid. But to pay $24,000 for an interconnect... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? That would be a good topic for a thread...stuff you like but don't like to admit it.One of my all time guilty favorites: The T-bones' No Matter What Shape Your Stomach's InListening to it now. | |
| Snake oil came first. By a likely ~ +50k years 9 billion chickens are eaten by Americans every year. That's about 93 pounds of chicken per person. 50 billion world wide."I eat more chicken any man ever seen." Jim Morrison | |
| What can I do with an old Harbeth M30 midrange driver If we can put together a couple of free midranges, bass drivers and tweeters I'll take them and build my own speakers!I'll even create a thread to document my progress or utter lack thereof. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Well, I'm not man enough to admit that I bought an Air Supply LP.....and I never have.But, a few months ago we were in a record store and my wife bought Don Henley's album with Sunset Grill and Boys of Summer on it. Pristine condition, plays like ... | |
| Snake oil came first. By a likely ~ +50k years In the Air Force the saying was that if you complain about a problem long enough someone of higher rank will finally.............tell you to stop. | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect " I believe the title of this post will be the title of the history book that chronicles the great societal uprising and revolution."I totally agree. Let's start it now. There are a lot more of us in the $1000 interconnect population than in the ... | |
| Questions about Node 2i Hmmmmm. Playing my ripped CDs from iTunes/BitPerfect through Apple TV and into Schiit Modi 2 Uber via Toslink does sound rather close to doing the same thing directly from computer into DAC via USB cable. Maybe subtle differences but hard to call ... | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect But some of you have thousand dollar interconnects right? Is it legit for those with $50 RCA cables (using some right now) to make fun of you and call you foolish for wasting your money? | |
| Questions about Node 2i That will be easy enough for me to try using my newer iMac. The current iMac I'm using as a server is over 10 years old and sits next to my system on a table. It is not going to fit in the new built in shelves I'm building for my system (and hundr... | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect I've said this before but I'll say it again because it is telling. When I hear that someone paid $1000 for a pair of interconnect cables I think it is nuts. (Although the ones I have may have been close to that.) They, the buyer, thinks it is grea... |
