Aerosmith's Honkin On Bobo
I hate to say this but Honkin' on Bobo is probably the worst album Aerosmith has done in years.They even ripped off the title it's from a Good Brothers album. The songs themselves are hard to listen to.Find the originals. Let this pile of crap die... 
Question for Tragically Hip fans
The Hip's first four Albums are their best, but without a doubt they pale to a live Hip concert.The band is absolutely at their best.The energy is scarey. You MUST see them live to appreciate their power.Best Songs? Three way tie.1.New Orleans is ...

The best CD Player for the money
Hi, just a quick update. In May of last year I asked for opinions on what cd player to buy. I found the advice to be both valuable and entertaining. I auditioned a Linn Genki, Musical Fidelity 3.2 and the Arcam Cd 92. The Linn was the best followe... 
Who R U?
Hi, I'm a 48yr old frostback from Ontario Canada. I got drawn into this obsession (hobby) when I was a kid. My mother workked in a restaraunt and when they'd change the records on the jukebox she'd buy the ones that were going to the trash.I spent... 
Are balanced interconnects usually better?

Turntable upgrade: What to do?
There is no doubt that a Linn LP12 has a knack for polarizing people.It is not the be all or end of TT's.It is very good (and fairly priced imo) for what it is. If you are happily dancing away to the music enjoy it.I know the VPI is good, the Clea... 
arcam alpha 7 upgrade to alpha 9 or go to a cd92?
Although I have no experience with the Alpha 7,I just recently sold my Alpha 6 and bought a cd92.The improvement was not subtle.More detail,better bass, and non fatiguing.I compared the cd92 to the Musical Fidelity 3.2 and the Linn Genki.The genki...

Bryston 3B Amp VS Cambridge A300 Integrated Amp
The bryston amp is a honey.It may be overkill for your speakers.Bryston typically has a very tight grip onthe bass.Also remember that there is a small difference between 50watts and 100.Approx. 2 or 3 db.You may want to check and see if yours is t...
