| Whats on your turntable tonight? Original Shaded Dog 1s 1s pressing of LSC 2241.....1812 Overture with Reiner and the Chicago. Cannon front copy, which IMO sounds WAY better than the later itinerations. Worth getting your hands on a copy of this sweet LP if you can. | |
| It's Sunday afternoon...what wax is on your table? A 1s 1s shaded dog LSC 2241 1812 overture with the canon front. Very sweet LP with a great deal of string detail as is fairly usual of the Reiner/Chicago Shaded Dog pressings... This one's a treat if you get your hands on one. | |
| Life after DarTZeel Pani, I am fortunate enough to have heard both the Dart and the CAT JL2 and JL3's. The Dart is a great ss amp, the CAT's are great tube amps...not really the same presentation. Personally, I prefer the CAT sound....the Dart is slightly-slightly mo... | |
| What Mobile Fidelity lp or cd is your fav ? Muddy Waters 'Folk Singer'Getz GilbertoPink Floyd DSOTMAlmost all of the other 200 gram LP's...too many to mention:0) | |
| Have you treated your listening space? I used to think that room acoustic treatments were the last thing to do in a system....WRONG! They probably should be the 1st on the list! After I installed some Real Traps into my room, the system was just raised to another level. My a'phile grou... | |
| Rowlands Agree with the other posters. My model 8 with choke has been a central part of my system for many years now. This amp is still highly competitive with other ss amps that are far more costly today, IMHO. I still haven't heard any other ss amp that ... | |
| Replace pwr cord w/IEC socket on vintage gear? Johhnyb53, I had to make this same decision with my ARC D70Mk2. I went with all stock and I'm glad i did. A friend who bought a D115 Mk2 changed out the stock cord with an IEC and a Shunyata and also changed the speaker cable strips to the newer C... | |
| Which purchase tipped you into nirvana. My SF Guarneri Hommages. | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green Just came across this thread. IMHO, the best blues guitarist was........Jimi Hendrix!! Yes, Hendrix could play the blues, just listen to some of his earlier recordings and see what I mean! | |

| WOW; great stuff at THE Show, Newport this weekend Magfan, where is San Diego...;0) BTW, I went into the RSL room, wherein I proceeded to get roped intore-organizing his set-up..;0(I moved the speakers more into the room ( so that we were essentially listening in the near-field), flipped them upsi... | |
| 5 legendary speakers? Ggavetti, I would replace the Amati's with the Guarneri Hommage's andadd the RTR's and Jantzens. Also special IMO are the original LS35A's and the MBL's. Many others could also be nominated. | |
| Who was the best jazz guitarist ever? Jimi Hendrix comes to mind when I think 'who's the best guitarist', OTOH, there are many great players.......a few others that come to mind...SRV, EC, Robin Trower ( VERY underrated IMHO), BBKing, Santana, Buddy Guy, Albert King, Jimmie Vaughn, Er... | |
| room tuning 12ftx12ft room G19276, your room dimensions are similar to mine. You will not get a room this size to allow a speaker to plumb the depths of 30hz or below reproduction. However, you can enjoy great imaging and intimacy of reproduction with a few tips that helped... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL Glory, I have heard the Tenor's on several occasions and IMHO, they are an excellent amp. They will give off a lot of heat into the room, but that is to be expected with most tube amps. I saw these on 'Gon before you bought them and was tempted to... |
