How did you choose your equipment? Ponnie: I never said magazines were a good way to decide. They are, unfortunately, a common way.Elizabeth: I'm still laughing.... | |
Sax 101... Ckorody: As I was shaking my head "yes" to everything you wrote, I kept thinking: finally, someone took the time to list all of that and educate people who may not have known...I commend you on a great job! | |

Best of RMAF 2008 Thank you for takikng the time for the write up and the pictures. You are doing a very gracious thing for those who did not attend the show. | |
Best of RMAF 2008 I really enjoyed the Voloce mono's with battery powered preamp. They made the Kharma speakers sound wonderful. | |
slow, funky, groovin' laid back music You must hear "Portishead: Live AT Roseland, NYC". I think it's perfect for what your asking for. | |
TRELJA in Denver - 2008 Thanks for taking the time! I also was at the show and must admit, the Voloce amps and line stage were incredible. I never heard of them and that room was one of the biggest surprises at the show for me. I couldn't believe how well those Kharmas s... | |

The eternal quandary Interesting question. All I can add is this:Years ago,(before I knew who he was), I purchased a collection of Chopin songs on cd. One eveing while cooking dinner I played this cd on a cd/radio which mounts under a kitchen cabinet; hardly audiophil... | |
Most achingly-beautiful music Chopin's nocturne op9 no.2 performed by Arthur Rubinstein, Schubert's Ave Maria, and Hot For Teacher by Van Halen. Sorry, but the last one is very dear to me...... | |
"Budget" cable advice, please I love this topic. An OUTSTANDING value in audio cables is DNM. I replaced about $9,000 worth of cable in my system (Kimber Select, Nordost, Purist), with $700 worth of DNM cable and didn't look back. As amazing as that is, it's still not the bigg... | |
Eichmann Bayonet plugs user experience Turns out you were correct Dave. My appologies. Actually, my dealer should send out an appology to everyone that was affected by this unacceptable blunder. |
