Programs for File management - HELP
I have Windows Media Center which, I feel, is excellent for ripping/cataloging your cd's. I think Windows Media Center has an excellent interface for storing/tagging/playing your music collection, it is also very simple to use. You have a choice a... 
Home Entertainment Show in Los Angeles
I attended in '98 and had a blast. That's where I ended up selecting (finally) my amps. There's tons of stuff to listen to, and unless you attend for at least 2 days, you won't be able to hear and see all of it. I'm not able to attend this year du...

Would like an opinion on hooking up PC to audio
Yes, Studioray, I played some music today and noticed a noisy hum which had never been there before with CD players. It's also very light on bass and one dimentional after listening some more, sounds like I'm using a really cheap CD player in my s... 
Success with Gaylord / Legend audio at home?
Before I bought the Legend Audio Triode amps, I had listened to many, many different set-ups, including some very expensive systems, as I am extremely picky about the sound I wanted. I took a number of amps home, heard others at shows, and spent a... 
Worst Name for A Piece of Equipment
Von Gaylord is the last name of their designer. They changed their name from Legend Audio to Von Gaylord because of another company using close to the same name. I always thought the name "Wadia" sounded odd, but in my opinion, they make some of ...
