| Grislybutter anyone? Yes indeed - he's one of the few people here I usually always agree with! I hope he comes back, too. | |
| Holo Audio May / please help @jasonbourne71 + 1 - I've got a Holo May KTE and would never even think about doing anything like that to it. | |
| Is Qobuz Customer Service an Oxymoron? @hgeifman + 1 - Spelling counts! | |
| Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist @ronkent - Totally agree about Kate; my favorite of her's is 'The Dreaming'. But one reason she may not have been mentioned is that she may not be a 'new discovery' to that many people. | |
| Is there a Blu-Ray player that does SACD and has Audiophile quality sound? I've got an MSB Universal Media Transport Plus from a number of years ago that would tick those boxes. The tray mechanism and remote are by Oppo (when they made these), but MSB completely re-did the electronics and put the power supply in a separa... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @daniel25 + 1 | |
| Genesis @tomcarr - and their first album was called 'From Genesis to Revelation', so there ya go! | |
| Rick Derringer R.I.P @buellrider97 - yes, so sad to see that. I was at that Day on the Green headlined by the Winter Bros with Rick (I was at a LOT of DoG's); got some great photos from up close, too. Loved Rick's work with Johnny Winter And.... | |

| How large (or small) is the audiophile market? @tomcy6 - true, but are there any print publications whose subscriber base is not shrinking? They are not much of a thing anymore. I remember when most of the people in my apartment building would get the daily paper delivered. Now I'm the only o... | |
| Cartridge Upgrade Recommendations I've had cartridges for many decades, and except for one stupid accident recently, have never damaged one or needed on replaced. Just a reasonable amount of care (which I did not take the other day) will protect these 'fragile' instruments from da... | |
| ...they're back.... @saugertiesbob - This thread is 'Music', not audio gear. | |
| Cartridge Upgrade Recommendations I would concur with Jason Bourne - I just got a Hana Red (around $4K) a few days ago to replace a damaged Clearaudio Charisma MM, and it's just what my system needed. It needs over 100 hours to fully break-in, but even right out of the box it's th... | |
| Hana Umami Red review Very informative thread; I just got a Hana Red yesterday for my Technics SL-1200G to replace a Clearaudio Charisma II MM cart that had a mishap. I've just been playing a record with it with the sound off but I'll start listening to it today, knowi... | |
| Sigur Ros - Best Recordings? @baylinor + 1 - I saw Sigur Ros a number of times when they were first touring the US; wonderful band so reminiscent in feel to the 'Krautrock' music scene (Tangerine Dream, Faust, Neu, etc) of the early-mid 70's. Very atmospheric, and when they b... |
