| Listening to music with loud feedback as a tinnitus sufferer I have a hisssssy tinnitus that plays in the background; sometimes it's better, sometimes it's worse. But I've had this for so long now that I'm used to it and generally don't even notice. | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? All hi-fi audio sounds in the world hurt ears of non-audiophiles (wives and men). It is painful to them that they can’t hear more that few minutes. Not sure I agree with this.... | |
| Does streaming music equate to high concert ticket prices @edcyn - I was in record retail (but not Tower) and wholesale between 1974 - 1984, and yes, that was my experience, too. I didn't get much pay, but I sure got a lot of free albums, tickets, parties, etc etc. I worked at one store in '74 where we h... | |

| Does streaming music equate to high concert ticket prices Nothing to do with each other. Down largely to Ticketmaster/Live Nation/ whatever other monopoly is gouging customers. I used to go to gigs all the time, now I almost never do, and I have a wonderful vinyl collection that I listen to. | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? ... and women vinyl reviewers, and there are a good number of those, will discuss the sound qualities of various pressings just as much as any male vinyl geek would. Some folks of any demographic who are into sound are into it more from the source... | |
| Best musician in the world? Silliest question in the world. | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? I don't know anybody who 'hates' home audio; most folks of any demographic, including many musicians, really don't care very much about home audio. This is a very tiny niche market. | |
| Newly discovered Looks like a good topic for the 'Music' forum; might get even more response.... | |
| Dating an album Go to Discogs - they''ll have everything you need, and you can even catalog your collection for free in their database, which I've been doing the past week or so. | |
| Hidden Gems in Classic Rock Albums @thecarpathian - totally agree about 'Roland' - brilliant song!! I dunno about 'overlooked' though; seems like it's a lot of folks' favorite on there.. Of course, one could say that whole album was overlooked by too many people... |
