Another shock. Only a couple of months after the untimely passing of Esbj

Hi

Just for education purposes.

This is a well stocked store, the prices however are absolutely ridiculous. It makes Music Direct, Elusive disc etc look like bargin stores. Examples being a Pictures album that I would like that is $60 everywhere is $100 here, The new Song remains the same set is $75 here and $60 everywhere else. They are charging $30-$100 for vintage single albums, the argument is that they are in good condiction !! I buy the same stuff on ebay for typically $4-10 + $4-6 postage !!

I have a handful of these now (Music Matters, Analogue Productions, Speakers Corner) and I'm pretty hooked. I especially love the 45s - Hank Mobley's "Soul Station," Horace Parlan's "Us 3," Art Tatum Group Masterpieces v. 8, Blakey's "Night in Tunisia." Art Blakey's drum solo at the end of "This I Dig of You" on Mobley's Soul Station made me realize once again why I'm truly fortunate to be able to listen to this particular music, this particular way.

Football and basket ball help keep the prison population down...well not really, cus sooner or later, they wind up there anyway. anyone for some Puppy Chow, do you know where YOUR Pit bull is?

Recently I have been interested in really good audio for extremely low cost. I am sure the differences between the cables would be more noticable with higher end "audiophile" gear. You use what you have access to and that is exactly what I did.

I purchased a RadioShack cable for $15 at 188cm and a Kimber CQ-mini AG (bought for $100 off ebay, lists for $300 on needledoctor) at 107cm and did some formal/informal tests with some friends.

The signal went as follows: Sony DVP-S7000 player -> RCA cable -> Audioengine 5 computer speakers.

Hi,

Im now up and running with a Marantz TT15 with maestro cartridge, this has made a huge improvement in my analogue playback.

Hello, everyone!

I'm in the market for a CD/SACD player, and I'm inclined to buy the Marantz SA8001 ($900). But I'm also thinking about the NAD M5, which is twice the price of the Marantz ($1800). Cost is a critical factor for me; I live on Social Security disability income. Still, the NAD appears to have distinct advantages over the Marantz, so I'm finding it a difficult choice.

As you might imagine, I have an extremely modest system:

- Roy Allison Mini Reference speakers
- NAD C352 integrated
- Pioneer DV-563A universal player (for CD/SACD playback)

In acquiring music, particularly vinyl, I want a software package that lets me capture what I have, it's condition, how it sounds, etc.

I have a Mac and have downloaded Delicious Library 2.0 - very cool app. I can scan UPC (and other) codes using the built in iSight and it put's in image of the LP on a shelf - complete with data. I can add condition, sound quality, etc. I can even sync to my iPod Touch so that when I am in a store I can quickly check to see if I already have something.
