All the above recomendations are very nice. I even learned about a few myself. About a week ago, I decided that my CD collection was lacking any Rolling Stones CDs. Yes I have them on vinyl , DVD and even a nice LD. On the Rock music forum at Audio Asylum, was comment that the newest compliation, Fourty Licks had decent sound. I bought it, went home, powered up, flipped the V12i to ultra linear and waited a half hour. I returned, inserted Fourty Licks into my Cary 308T w/Mullard long plates and sat down to listen . The Stones have never sounded this good, even through my HT system. I did try switching to Triode, but lost a little of the dynamics that makes you want to get up and boogie. On the other hand, Diana Krall "Live in Paris" and Patricia Barber "Verse" are better in triode.
new cary v12 needs new music
i am going to purchase some new music later today so that i can kick back and really appreciatemy newest addition to my system
the cary v12 has been a complete pleasure to listen to thus far, very smooth, utterly engaging and musical, no fatigue whatsoever
the rogue 88 amp the cary replaced was a very nice amp i thoroughly enjoyed owning and listening to, but the cary is a far more refined creature altogether
anyway, i would like to solicit some cd recommendations from the audiogon family.
i enjoy rock, pop, and especially good acoustic ensembles and jazz.
recently i listened to a cyrus chestnut cd and was very taken with the sound
i am also considering adding something from hot tuna or jorma kaukonen to my collection today
i think this may give you an impression of what i have in mind and what i like
widespread panic, gov't mule and dave matthews are also on a short list of mine for todays purchase
i listen to just about everything, so any recommendation is cool
ok, i'll let audiogon speak and i will listen
thanks in advance
