| 45rpm pressing of Fleetwood Mac Rumours No amount of adjustment can correct a poorly mastered album. This one(two LP, 45rpm version) sounds as though it were mixed, using a pair of Radio Shack Minimus 7's for monitors. | |
| 45rpm pressing of Fleetwood Mac Rumours If you REALLY want to hear the Fleetwood Mac Rumours album, at it's BEST; find a copy of the Nautilus SuperDisc pressing. It's a shame that early 1980's technology sounds so much better than what's available today, and that Nautilus is not still i... | |
| IC's amp-preamp & cd-preamp using Maggies? Work your way up the Synergistic Research, or Kimber lineup. I've got some of each(Synergistic's Analog Tricon, Tesla Apex, and various PCs/Kimber's KS-1130s and KS-1030s) in my bi-amped(Maggie mains) system. My goals have always been the same as ... | |

| Simaudio 110LP vs PS Audio GCPH, others under $600 Manitunc- If you want a real treat, replace your GCPH's fuse with a HI-FI Tuning 2A slo-blo, Supreme 5mm X 20mm. I opened mine to determine what FREDs to order for it. Found it already had UF5404's(50nS recovery rate), so I just changed the fuse. ... | |
| What Song Reminds You of Your First Love? 'Paradise By The Dashboard Light', by Meatloaf. It was recorded WAY after the fact, but hit the nail on the head(except-I was thirteen, not, "barely seventeen")! (http://new.music.yahoo.com/meatloaf/tracks/paradise-by-the-dashboard-light--682333) | |
