| Starting over with vinyl Vinyl is a slippery slope - I know , as I am currently careening down it at somewhat out of control speeds. I have both digital and analog going now and still buy both formats. I love my vinyl obsession, but it is much more expensive than digita... | |
| Focal 1037BE; All-Rounders Extraordinaire! Klipschking - looks like an awesome setup. I almost went wit a BAT integrated for sale in my area, but it went before I acted. I am a newbie at this stuff, and still in the woods when it comes to the tube vs SS approach to systems.I notice you h... | |
| Your Go to CD to Impress Many of the above are favorites. Another to check out is on the NAIM label - Antonio Forcione - Ghetto Paradise. Amazing guitarist. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Oldie but goodie - Sunken Condos. If you do not own this, they are on sale at Insound - $17.99. Depending on your music tastes, they also have a number of reissues at very low prices. I just bought 20 albums this month - total cost was around $... | |
| Focal 1037BE; All-Rounders Extraordinaire! I never auditioned the B&W 800 series - out of my price range. ( I paid $1200 for my 836V's and $400 for the SW800 sub). On the first listen at my local audio shop, they set up the smallest bookshelfs (knowing my budget). These were the 706... | |
| Ry Cooder recommendation... Long time fan. Started with his first S/T album back in 1970. Jazz is also a favorite. Recently picked up Ry Cooder and Corridos Famosos Live. Definitely one of his best in my book. | |
| RSD 2016 BTW - not an RSD reissue, but was in the mood for live concert albums today and spun a recent MOV reissue - Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble Live at Carnegie Hall. This may be SRV's best live recording and this pressing is quite good by my ... | |
| RSD 2016 Discogs. | |
| Focal 1037BE; All-Rounders Extraordinaire! BTW - what equipment do you have these paired with? | |
| Focal 1037BE; All-Rounders Extraordinaire! I have been resisting my lust for a pair of 1037be's. They do come up on occasion on AG, but so far, I have not pulled the trigger. I fell pretty hard for the Focal sound when I first decided to put a system together after demoing other brands w... | |
| RSD 2016 Late response to an old thread, but found a copy of Door Live at Aquarius Theater album and just spinning it now. SQ is excellent and Morrison seems to have it all together. I attended several Doors concerts back in the day and their stage prepa... | |
| Marantz and Stereophile? I have been living with my Marantz Pm-11S3 for a couple of months. The amp is paired with a Marantz SA-8004 SACD player and a pair of Focal Chorus 836V speakers. Just after buying the amp, I picked up a gently used Focal SW 800 powered subwoofe... | |
| An all Parasound system - Good idea? Ok - so my bro-in-law and I just finished a nice bottle of red ( 2008 Col Dorcia Brunello di Montalcino) and, now well lubricated, I showed him this thread. His follow up question - " If you were going with a one brand system ( including phono amp... |
