| What's going on with the audio market? Let's keep the politics out, please.Let's not turn a perfectly good audio forum into a nasty mess. | |
| Do female audiophiles exist willgolf, you’re just going to have to get your wife to understand the necessity of a listening room in your new house. That will be yours and she can have the great room all to herself. It's cheaper than a divorce. | |
| Do female audiophiles exist audiowoman, Nice to see you post here. You may want to look into MQA (a new way of encoding digital music that is supposed to sound better, if you haven't heard) before buying a server. If MQA is for real, you may want a streamer, a Tidal subscr... | |
| Getting Personal Property Insurance for your rig. I have Hartford homeowner’s and I have asked them several times if I needed extra coverage for an expensive stereo and large music collection and they have always told me no, that it’s covered under personal property. I have never filed a claim th... | |
| Ayre now has a new QX-5 all in one "I may have missed, but nothing says the whole catalog etc"That’s because no one knows yet. I’m sure they plan to roll MQA encoded recordings out over time. If people buy it, you’ll see more, if not, it will die. | |

| Best Sounding Classic Rock Cd's I need to correct my Beatles recommendation. The album is called "Yellow Submarine Songtrack", not songbook as I stated above. | |
| Best Sounding Classic Rock Cd's Good call rklune. That reminds me that the Beatles "Yellow Submarine Songbook", NOT Soundtrack, is a remixed and remastered album that sounds really good and I love the songs on it. Of course Beatles purists were outraged that the songs were remix... | |
| A Couple Of Articles For Digital Listeners Well so far, so good. I think that we can all agree that some vinyl based systems sound better than some digital based systems and vice versa. And we can agree that some people prefer the sound of vinyl and some people prefer the sound of digital.... | |
| Best Sounding Classic Rock Cd's The Moody Blues reissued their first 7 on SACD in 2006. If you like their trippy albums, I'd start with In Search of the Lost Chord or To Our Children's... If you like their more song oriented albums pick A Question of Balance or Every Good Boy ... | |
| thanks to Audiogon The only thing I can suggest is unplugging the player for a short time, plugging it back in and let it boot up for a minute or two before trying to play a disc. | |
| is there a market? Well excuse me. I was just trying to dissuade you from bankrupting yourself and anyone who joins you. You clearly have no idea what recording the best orchestras with the best 1950s technology and then pressing the albums using the best equipment ... | |
| is there a market? Not a chance. Trying to do this would be pouring money into a bottomless pit. There are record labels already making high quality analog and digital jazz and classical recodings largely as a labor of love. You would be much better off supportin... | |
| All the Roadrunning by Mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou I'll second mcondo on the dvd. I think that this is the best way to enjoy this collaboration. It's an excellent concert. | |
| What makes an expensive speaker expensive Cstooner, Wouldn’t some of the people who buy the big speakers also be the people who frequent the symphony and opera, maybe just to be seen there, but still there, listening? And wouldn’t these people at some point think to themselves, "My big sp... |
