You were not here first. You were never first.

You may even be the 8th or 10th version. Who knows.

Small wonder that people don't like this bit that is about to trash your worldview. It sure throws the bible, the Koran, etc in the pooper (whoops!), among other things. If you then look at those books as something else, ie a tale told by primitive man when faced with 'forces we don't understand' ....then it makes more sense.

What I can't wait for is all the stories that people will make up in their minds --- in order to not deal with this.

Need more info on Ayre Acoustics QB-9 USB DAC

One of my pet peeves about reviews/reviewers is inconsistency. For example, take Technical Descriptions, the part of a typical Stereophile review that usually comes before the "Subjective Sound Quality" section. Lack of details in Technical Descriptions really hurts the review and may prevent me from taking that reviewer seriously.

Please help me with figuring out who sings this..

i heard the most amazing cover of American Tune on one of the NPR affilliates here tonight as I was driving home from the laundromat... it was sparse, just piano , voice, drums..the singer was a real soulful type sort of like..i dont know.. ray lamontangne and mayer without the cheese..amazing vocal chords on the guy whoever he was..

did a you tube search..darrel scott, sounds sorta like it but not soulful enough, not enough vocal acrobatics..glen phillips cover is whiny....forget indigo girls.

wasnt paul simon either..

who was it??

Ideas for 2010

Ideas for 2010

I don’t think much about resolutions. One way or another, people do what they <i>want</i> to do, and all too often our desire conflicts with our resolve. But yesterday morning, as I was walking around downtown, waiting for everyone else to wake up, I stopped at Van Vorst Park to eat a banana and watch a father build a snowman for his son.

Last Reminder! We'll see you next week.

Greetings!
C'mon down! The weather's terrific!
If any of you are in the neighborhood, Buddha and I will be once again hosting our humble endeavor, NFS Audio, at the 2010 THE Show in the fabulous Flamingo next week (Jan 7-10). I just completed this year's batch of Limoncello and I am still sober enough to wright about it!
I even made a small batch of Orangecello in honor of the name of the super-secret prototype speaker that we will be listening to...!

High End - Decade of Revelation II

Now for the Other Things that happened in the 00's....

Every decade has innovation - the 90's had the Genesis Digital Lens, TacT Millennium and PS Audio Power Plant. But the 00's will go down as the MOST INNOVATIVE period in the history of high-end audio. Divided into new components, innovative ideas and new tweaks :

New Components

-Hard-disk playback / Memory drive.
The right way to drive digital ?

-Master-clock generators.
Expensive, dedicated clocks for digital signals. But can we make a better clock in the DAC ?

New Year's Eve, New Year's Day listening

How did you ring in the New Year, music-wise? And what's on the turntable/radio/cd player/server today?

I have a thick, miserable head cold, so it was Doom's 'Born Like This' and Johnny Cash's 'Now There Was A Song' dayside and then an early bed before I ever got to the Booker T. box set. I even slept thru' the ball drop, which the missus and the dogs woke up for.

Today will be Andrew Hill's 'Verona Rag,' and maybe Mos Def.
