| What other obsessions do you have? Needless to say, my family is the most rewarding obsession to me and everything else takes a back seat to it.With that out of the way, I always need to be involved with art and design in some form. Whether it is contemplating/sketching ideas for a... | |
| would you bother? I bothered to get a turntable and have found that I could have done without it. It is a bit of a hassle and the need to attend to it is frustrating.The reason I got my table in the first place is probably the same reason for your inquiry, it's the... | |
| Redbook for the long haul For what it's worth, I made decisions on my personal "long haul" question a few years ago, which I feel are still valid. I felt as I grew into my equipment over time, it originally had to be better than I could appreciate then and/or it could grow... | |

| Speakers: What's MOST important to you?... Other than the attributes listed above, I think overall balance is critical. Nothing glaring or exaggerated. I want the presentation to float unrestricted, like the opening of a window and the removal of walls in the room. | |
| What's your favorite Patricia Barber album? It's difficult to choose favorites, but Cafe Blue may be it for me. The Split album is similar in vein to Verse and equally enjoyable. | |

| Female Vocalist like Diana Krall, Jacintha. Melissa Errico. While simply browsing at my local Tower Records, I picked up this artist's cd "Blue Like That" without any knowledge of her. It turned out to be a very pleasant surprise and quite enjoyable. Good recording too. | |
