| FABULOUS guitar wanking Not to step on Byfo's toes heres, but in response to Sean's question about a Steve Morse/Dregs suggestion, I'd like to mention a live disc they released in 1992 during a brief reunion tour. They nailed it. This will qualify under your criterion, S... | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Yes, Bwhite, I'm referring to an Empirical Audio Electrocompaniet EMC 1-UP SE which I just sold. | |
| RCA Living Stereo 2.0 & 3.0 SACD's I just bought it on Amazon, where it's available now for $10.99. Also bought Also Sprach Zarathustra / Ein Heldenleben for $10.99, and added a third disk to receive free shipping. It all "comes out in the wash" more or less. Thanks for the info on... | |
| FABULOUS guitar wanking Sean, thanks for the heads-up on Joe Stump. Music suggestions are key to what make Audiogon an internet destination. Joe's new CD Speed Metal Messiah, might be interesting. For me, the electronic drums are an issue on his earlier CD's. But given b... | |
| RCA Living Stereo 2.0 & 3.0 SACD's Thanks for the link! I'm pretty facile with the internet, so I'm surprised I couldn't find this label. I think the label being listed under CD instead of SACD was the roadblock. | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Actually, 711Smilin, I didn't trade up from the Electro to the Exemplar 2900 and make $$$. Considering my initial investment in the Electro plus the cost of the mods and spider clamp, I came out considerably behind in terms of $$$. However, the Ex... | |
| RCA Living Stereo 2.0 & 3.0 SACD's Gaudio_eek, I did a search on Towerrecords.com for the RCA Living Stereo label on SACD and couldn't find it. Would you provide a link, please? | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Exemplar owners...are you leaving the player in "Standby" mode and powering up with the remote, or are you turning the unit on and off with the power switch on the player? Does leaving the unit in "Standby" reduce the life of the tubes? And, if yo... | |
| I need a quiet tube amp VAC Phi 110/110. | |
| Recommendations discs for SACD/DVD-A trial I don't know about the 16bit master issue, but the new Diana Krall CD is out on a hybrid disk, and it sounds terrific on my system in both formats.Which modded Denon 2900 did you purchase? | |
| What does "good" sound like? Joekras, you make very valid points. I don't believe any system can fulfill all the requirements. If someone has such a system, please chime in. I know that my system reproduces live music very well, and that's how I can tell the components are sy... | |
| What does "good" sound like? Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band and The Bad Plus should be available in stores in the jazz section, but you can save yourself some time and order them from Amazon. For acoustic guitar, check out Pat Metheney's "One Quiet Night", but this may be a l... | |
| What does "good" sound like? Joekras, you're post is either sarcasm, or you didn't get my point, which simply is that hard rock or alternative rock will not give you a sense of whether your system is "good" based on the definition of "good" being the faithful reproduction of ... | |
| What does "good" sound like? "Good" sounds like real music playing in your room. I also listen to a lot of hard and alternative rock, but nothing will tell you what your system is doing like an excellent acoustic music disk. If you play acoustic music, and it sounds live, you... | |
| Least Controversial, Reasonably Priced AC Upgrades I saw a Xentek 5k on Ebay in the last three days with a starting bid of a buck.....Well...OK....it's put to $255 now.... |
