Newbee, I still think that my idea of a basic repertoire gathered from suggestions emanating from "audiophiles" is more topical and less of a waste of time and bandwidth than, let's say, "What is the best beer". I believed that providing a list of works would be sufficient to prompt people to respond. I believed that a semi-comprehensive approach was a good thing. I was under the impression that sorrowful performances would be weeded out, and that among the contenders left a winner, recording quality-wise, could be found. It seems that no matter how many equipment reviews one can find in printed media or elsewhere, participants in 'Agon find other participant's views on equipment to be worthwhile. Wish it was the same for the music. Maybe I could start a thread on what is the best champagne to accompany one's music listening... How do a subscribe to Fanfare?
Good day.
Good day.
