Best sonics/music on CD 1) John Coletrane with Johnny Hartman . Great Singer, great sonics and a pretty good horn player. Everything that makes music so meaningful to me. 2) Louis Armstong with Duke Ellington 2 cd Remaster. The two most important figures in American musi... | |

Are the Beatles the reason why modern music exists Mmakshak, Audiofeil picks up the story 50 years into it but I mostly agree. Now, about the playoffs. Between you and me I see 9-7 and a wild card slot. | |
Are the Beatles the reason why modern music exists It is impossible to condense this subject into a forum like this. Too many important people will be left out.

OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE Khyrs, yes you have been and I appreciate it. Even (especially) the "tweek". " Accuacy" to me means faithfuly reproducing what is on the 'disc' without adding subtracting or editorializing. If I want to add "color" I listen with a good red Burgund... | |
OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE OK fellas you win. Samuel, yes it would be duanting but I volunteered to do the work at my own time/ expense. Why Wilsons ? I think this was clearly answered somewhere above but here goes again. Many nonprodutive flame wars have been started here ... | |
CLASS A AMPLIFIERS Czbbcl , that is not a characteristic of class A amps although this may be a limitation of Pass designs. As stated above Gryphon class A amps double output from 150W @ 8ohms all the way to 2400W @ 1/2 ohm (5000W peak). In the real world your home ... | |
CLASS A AMPLIFIERS Hey frankg how do you like the encore ? I've never compared it directly to the signature but I bet it holds up pretty well.- Jim | |
