Lose weight or buy better fitting pants
rtrlover- I couldn’t think of a more suitable compromise?    
Lose weight or buy better fitting pants
You either have a room that can be converted into a listening space or not.  If you do, you cram the BIGGEST speakers in the most appropriate position, and the room is treated as needed. If you're like most, you have the system in a living space... 
Maggie LRS amping question
It's a $350 speaker.... Perhaps your expectations are too great. Time to move up the food chain.  
Cornwall 4 vs JBL horn under $10,000
"Still have McIntosh tube preamp 2300 and McIntosh 302 ( 300 watts solid state amp.) Just experiencing tubes for first time!" In that case, either one won't be a "bad" choice.   
Butcher Block Acoustics
The wood wacks are quite nice. I woodn't  know wood wack I wood choose?

Clearly, the poster's don't  "read" into the OP's statement. It's a $900 MIC amp. $10K budget...yeah, sure https://www.china-hifi-audio.com/en/willsenton-tube-amplifier-c-77/willsenton-r8-kt88-el34-x4-tube-integrated-amp-power-amplifier-headphon... 
Are Black Ravioli products sold in the US?
Al dente is the preferred state for use. Otherwise, they may be squashed under weight of amp.  
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
"All 20 somethings think all good musicians are irrelevant." Like many things, such a statement isn't true. It's just 20 something musicians and very few 20 something non musicians who do. "But I wouldn't put Nugent in the top 1000 guitarists." ... 
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
onhwy61- all the players listed are great-Rick Derringer imm ediately brings to mind the incomparable Johnny Winter. I’ve posted this before- A real R&R guitarist has to make Johnny B Goode their own. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rervO... 
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
Well, the thread is totally off topic, but what the heck... "saw Joe Pass in the mid 70s" wolf_garcia-Yes! My guitar teach and I saw Joe at the local college in the late 70's. I wish I could have seen Barney Kessel- an original "wrecking crew" ... 
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
  "I don't generally go along with the concept of 'best': larsman- I agree. Musicianship isn't the same as the fastest sprinter or athletic endeavor.   It is however, interesting to hear an opinion from a polarizing guy as Ted, who does have cr... 
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
I'll keep the thread off topic  since the mentions are cool artists. This is just breakfast time filler anyway. John  Mclaughlin IS one of the original guitar "shredders" before the term "shred." As a guitar wanker, always hypnotized listening /...

 " Maybe take a journey to the center of your mind." bigtwin- +1 Amboy Dukes LP's fortunately are always in the 3/$10 bin, but I haven't found an unmolested copy yet. I have the debut and "Call of the Wild".    
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
"For me Eddie was best rock guitarist long before Ted said so…" johhnycamp5- I knew from the first time I heard VH's cover of "You Really Got Me" in 1978 that EVH was different and, unique. After seeing VH, it was confirmed. Ted is so polarizing... 
UGH...The tired, "BEST" Rock guitarist thread
The  title implies one of those silly, chest pounding, insert the name threads, BUT is clarified with Theodore talking about Eddie. Since Whitefish1175 decided to jack the thread with something completely UNRELATED, I'll pile on to it. Along with...
