While reading through a very, very long thread over on AudioKarma about the Sony XDRF1-HD I read an entry in which someone described his travel bag stereo: the Sony, an iPod, a portable XM radio and a set of paper thin speakers.

It got me to thinking: does anyone actually travel with stereo equipment, or do you just jam an mp3 player in the Dopp kit and call it done?

I know Robert R. wrote a couple of years ago about traveling with Audio Engine 2s, which struck me as a decent idea.

I am very tired, but I wanted to drop a short note. Tonight's University of West Georgia Wind Ensemble's concert was excellent and much more melodic than the last, but they did perform again the premier work by Lucy Robert from France. It will give you a chance to compare the two performances.

Tonight's concert is nearly an hours worth of music. I will work on mastering it over the next couple of day for possible postal by Friday.

Sam Tellig very much liked the Micromega CD-30 CD player and the IA-180 integrated amp in his November 2009 review. Yet they are not in Recommended Components. Why not?

Is the internet finally growing up? I hope so. Sad, lonely people with internet access, hiding behind shields of anonymity, may be running out of luck.

Guys,

I need your help. I am looking for a pair if stands for my Von Schweikert VR1 Monitors. I cannot decide between apollo A2 (http://www.apollohifi.co.uk/Speaker/Speaker.html) and Diva stand(http://www.swanspeaker.com/products/accessory.aspx?aid=1&type=homestereo). Or maybe you have one mind that you can recommend.

Thanks,
