| Prog Rock Ozric Tentacles is pretty awesome. | |
| MoFi Release Meets Expectations FINALLY "The MoFi Doolittle is fantastic."I must be one of the only ones who thinks that they messed up on Doolittle. My copy sound very boomy in the bass and lacks mid-range detail. Surfer Rosa, on the other hand, is great. | |
| MoFi Release Meets Expectations FINALLY Philb7777, I agree that the newly released Elvis Costello Almost Blue is great. This makes two releases in a row for me that exceed expectations. My favorite Costello album, Imperial Bedroom, is due to be released soon. That will be the real test.... | |
| Wadia 121 I just ordered my 121 yesterday so I will report my findings when it arrives and I have had some time with it. Unfortunately I am told it will take almost a month to arrive as it is back ordered. I am buying locally from my dealer, so I am willing... | |
| Skala or Kleos? I can't offer an opinion in response to your question, but I have been using a Delos for about 5 months now and can't say enough about how good its sounds. Since you have a nicer cartridge than mine, and also a Lyra, I will ask if you use their SP... | |
| Prog Rock Zebulon Pike. They are an all instrumental prog rock metal trio from Minneapolis. Great sound and great music. | |
| Are High End Audio Products Unreliable? Quick update. I bought a Music Hall A15.2 integrated amp about two months ago. I hardly used it until a few nights ago. I was listening to my ipod through the mini jack on the front when the left channel went dead. Testing it showed that it was de... | |
| Who listens only to vinyl? I'd say I listen to vinyl about 80% of the time. My main system has a CD player attached but it is almost never turned on. I only listen to digital for the convenience (in the car, on the plane, at work, etc.). My second system does not have a tur... | |
| 3M Sound Damping Foil Tape Thanks for all of the responses. I started my search for this material with the intent of applying it to the MDF shelves of my DIY rack. I have also heard of some mods to electronics that included applications like this, but this is not my first p... | |
| Happy Record Store Day I went to Electric Fetus in Minneapolis at 9:30 this morning and received a number when I walked in (#317) and was told they were letting folks into the "special" area in order. At that time they were on number 52, so I gave up and went to Treehou... | |
| Clear Day Cables Speaker Cables Yes, they are now fully broken in and sound even better now. | |
| FLAC On A Mac I'm not sure what you mean, but I am a total newb to this, so you may be right. What I do know is that I can download the hi-res files and play them without any conversion necessary with Songbird. If I want to play them in itunes I have to convert... | |
| Neil Young Trademarks New Audio Format He doesn't care enough about sound IMO. I have bought several of the audiophile vinyl reissues of his (at a very premium price nonetheless) and have found the vinyl to be thin, flimsy, and not flat. I'm on my second copy of Harvest because the fir... | |
| Time for a new deck I agree with Sebrof. Find yourself a Concept used for about $1000 and you will not be disappointed. Even if you have to pay $1500 for a new one it is well worth the price and is in my opinion the best value in a "deck" under $2000. You can upgrade... | |
| Bourbon and rock n roll I love Bourbon more than any other alcoholic drink on this planet. Prefer it on the rocks. I'll drink most anything but really like Maker's Mark. Recently I picked up some of the Costco house brand bourbon for $20/liter and find it quite nice. I w... |
