  1. wait... did I drop my scum bag? garyc - nice post, well said. Not sure I am on the same plain, as I guess I don't always expect the concert quality sound as if I was in the optimal seat in the Vienna State Opera hall. I like music. And before you criticize me for starting a sentence with a conjunction, I have been to Vienna.
  2. Ok, this thread is not about debating the greatness of the Beatles.... they where great. The question is after the separation all four of the people who are considered members of the "Beatles" who's solo career have you enjoyed most as this point. For this thread that definition would be John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Clearly John and George have since left this earth. This thread is not about poo pooing other members but more about being a Beatle fan and then talking about which artist you liked better as a solo artist. My wife is a huge Beatles fan. For me it is George Harrison and with that said I dislike "Cloud Nine". His early post Beatle albums are just well..... Top Notch. I think he grew so much and his guitar playing is subtle not blending greatness.
  3. Yeah, no offence, you like music and a great sound system. But that said, really what would be the point of a great stereo system or home theater if you didn't enjoy the media. Having a system that produce "waves" or "tones" at precise frequencies mean nothing to me. Its like talking about a great guitar player. Sure they can move their fingers very fast but are they musical?
  4. Boz Scaggs performs it so much better https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=1&v=e7ccKMqgrxU
  5. Yeah and where is the massive Chalk board and ruler across the knuckles.
  6. I like to have "Women I've Never Had". - Hank Williams Jr.
  7. Well if you had figured out earlier you probably would have already keeled over with a heart attack.
  8. If you are in a friend's car and hear a great song by Dream Theater you have not heard in a long time... Do you: 1) Say this sound system sucks. 2) Think this song rocks, reach over and turn it up and start playing air guitar and sing along. 3) Punch the driver in the ribs cause you just saw a VW bug. 4) Wish the DAC was better. 5) Ask how much longer until we reach Arby's. ???
  9. Agreed in as much as the type and quality of oil impacts the sound in your oil caps. That oil is old by way, you should replace it and use Mobil one for Rice Sakes!
  10. Top Notch. Seriously the fight should be about J-River or Media Monkey. Now that would be a great thread.
  11. I like red meat, music, with a nice glass of California cabernet, post making love to the wife and her falling asleep so I can just have control listening to songs I want (actually our tastes don't differ too much, but she more a Dan Fan than I) to. If I was any good it can be a decent volume with no complaints.
  12. Wait, you're a salesmen...?? What exactly are you selling. Also providing the price helps. Sent from my dPhone using Frototalk
  13. Different Strokes for different folks. But I think that cat has perhaps has dropped a few tabs and definitely smoked a (199666444-336 (do this in your head)) amount of weed.
  14. I use a Music Streamer II + by HRT audio. which takes over the audio from the hardware sound card. I really enjoy the fact when using a PC for audio of having a great sounding external DAC. I also have an external HD (USB 3.0) which contains my FLAC files w/ META data. Easy to back up with multiple copies, no jitter assuming the original rip was done correctly (seriously when moving to a pure digital collection, don't take short cuts, take your time, just burns you in the end if you don't) and sounds great. I won't loose this music until I die. If the PC dies, I loose nothing related to audio, just insert a new machine and roll.
  15. Cornwall vs. RF7s... Well do you have the space for console style speakers. To me Cornwall's are warmer, the RF7 in original form do great (as mentioned above) with a sub in my opinion as that tweeter can sing at volumes. That tweeter is different that a Cornwall. You should listen to both. I believe the set up and the room will impact the sound more than the choice of the two, but that set up should drive the selection. I believe the RF7s are a bit more forgiving in terms of placement, but I am concerned that you won't be able to let either one shine in a condo, unless the space is there. Please no ferns or other plants on either speaker. Enjoy your new home.
  16. I am now into high resolution FLAC files. That said based on the music I listen to most where created pre digital days and so those hi-resolution digital files come from the magnetic master tapes. A long way away from a cassette tape.
