| Jazz Recommendations I recently picked up a jazz compilation on acousticsounds.com entitled "Jazz After Midnight" - recorded by Rudy Van Gelder. Those familiar with the 60's Blue Note era recognize Van Gelder as one of the chief architects responsible for shaping the ... | |
| Axiom comments ? I had the VP150 in for an in-home audition, but sent it back due to brightness. The home audition works if you're willing to pay return shipping ... in case you don't like them. For good quality, versatile (HT/2ch) speakers in the same budget cate... | |
| outlaw m2200/m200 - good for pure stereo? Well to answer your specific question ... refined enough for pure stereo set-up? I would say 'yes', they'll be able to handle that duty. These little amps are compact, good specs as you say (reasonably high S/N ratio, 200 wpc of "A" weighted power... | |
| Miles Davis "Sketches Of Spain" Ferrari, please add my name to the list as well; and thanks so much for sharing. BTW, there is also a segment on "The Miles Davis Story" DVD which covers the "Sketches of Spain" recording sessions, as well as the genesis behind the idea to do it. ... | |

| The CD you most listened to back in 2007 ? Herbie Hancock's "Gershwin's World" ... very well recorded mix of vocals, instrumentals, and a nice piano solo at then end. Real good stuff. | |
| Recommend Me Some Speakers Take a look at Ascend Acoustics. Just search on the Web. They're dedicated to higher end sound on a budget. I owned a pair prior to moving up to better gear; and still use one for center channel in HT set-up. Definitely worth a listen ... they off... | |
| Best Source For Quality Jazz CDs? I'll second the Amazon suggestion ... particularly if you go "used". That can save a lot of money. Check out Verve records on verve.com ... they've assembled a number of other labels under one roof. Many of the "Jazz Round Midnight" series CD's ar... | |
| Signal vs. Audio Art vs. Speltz Anti? Need help... I have Signal speaker cable and all three types of Signal PC's in my system. Very satisfied with this combination. On the I/C front, I have firsthand experience with all the brands mentioned in the original post ... and my opinion as to which is b... | |
| Element Cables vs Signal Cable I agree that Element and Signal look surprisingly similar, and thought they might be the same company. In the end, it didn't matter to me. That said, my experience with Signal has been very positive indeed. All my PC's are Signal ... Basic for Sub... | |

| Anyone still using a TRL modded Sony? I've got a Sony 2000ES changer mod from TRL. This has to be one of the most satisfying audio purchases I've ever made. I won't go into all the audiophile superlatives like transparency, micro dynamics, PRAT (excuse me), etc. This player just flat ... | |
| Considering Int. Amp w/ limited features NEED HELP Soulgoober, sorry for the miscommunication. For the record ... I was not specifically recommending the M2200. It was a suggestion for the Outlaw product line ... in which you had particular interest in RR2150 integrated. I went through a similar e... | |
| Considering Int. Amp w/ limited features NEED HELP Soulgoober, as I said in an earlier post ... I know exactly where you are since I was at the same place about a year ago. My research started with AudioReview.com and then migrated over here to A-gon. So many choices, and constantly finding out ab... |
