Vinyl seems a worthy source for incorporating a higher than 16/44 ADC. High end phono preamps continue to be offered, but apparently there aren't enough of you out there using them or asking to use them to digitize your vinyl.

It seems telling that the phono preamps with A/D converters in them are aimed at the lower end of the spectrum (16/44 resolution only, am I right?)

I am looking for a music software recommendation. Here is my story. I am looking for something that will let me rip at least CD quality sound in WAV files, organize those files and reliably keep the organization once made...also, something that will let me associate album art with the WAV file would be nice.

I am using media Monkey today but, again, I opened it today and found the files either blank or rearranged. It is also refusing to let me transfer files directly to my iPOD as it used to allow...

I'd like to use my external hard drive (1 TB) as my primary iTunes music library. My regular internal hard drive (320 GB) on iMac is getting too full. Is this easily do-able? I'm neither an idiot nor a computer hobbyist..

Hi guys, i sorry if this question gets asked a lot, i know it does in guitar forums.

But im looking for my first stereo tube amp.

At the moment i have a few year old Yamaha home cinema receiver (RX-V 630RDS).

Its powering 2 mission M32s and a center celestion CSC.

i would be looking to only change the amp not the speakers if possible.

I live in the uk and would be looking to spend no more than about

Rule: For every red gaff, you have to use a blue gaffe.

Best red gaffe:

Meg Whitman: "Thirty years ago, anything was possible in California."

Jerry Brown: "Yeah, if we could only get that governor back."

(Jerry brown had been governor for the five years prior to her quoted date of the Golden State's fabulosity.)

Best blue gaffe:

Question from reporter: "What is the secret here to turn out? In the old days, the old machine days, what we called

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29
Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million McCain: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1

It's pretty classic here, with a bunch of puerile liars here who suggest that a person who objects to deliberate, intentional suppression of political speech should move to Venezuela, where suppression of political speech is common.

It's pretty obvious, as well, that we're back to 1950's style red-baiting when someone points out that the fantastical, imaginary "invisible hand" has done nothing to prevent absurd salaries on the part of people who could not possibly add that much worth to the economy.

Can audiophiles talk about music or can they only talk about the sound of music?
