Ive just purchased a mixed season pass to the CSO, this covers everything from piano peices, violin, brass and full orchestral, 14 concerts in all between Sept and June 2009
Would it be of interest to post thoughts on each night as the season goes on for discussion or would it get boring and presumptuous very quickly ?
Let me know what you think, dont worry about being direct im very thick skinned !!

I read the PB13 review by Larry Greenhill and would like to comment on the review. First of all, they claimed the specs wrong. The driver has a 3'' excursion capability, not 2'' claimed in the review.
How is the PB13 95lbs lighter than the REL when there is only 50lbs difference? (205-155=50)
The reviewer compared the PB13 to dual JL f113s and claimed the JLs produced deeper soundstage. Isn't that unfair since dual subs will almost alway give a deeper soundstage?
Sometimes stock is simply not good enough. Reader "EG" would like to know how many readers have used an after-market component-modification service to improve standard high-end gear. If you have, have you been satisfied or not? Why?
This is Lennie's first album and with 3 sax players, bass, piano, drums and trumpet support this album swings and is extremely tight. None of the tracks are very long and the CD itself is only 39:13 in length but after listening to just a few tracks you will find yourself saying out loud "whew" ! This album was recorded in LA in 1954 right after Lennie got out of the Army and the melodies will have you snapping your fingers to keep the beat. The recording is pristine, clean and does not sound overly digital on my Arcam Solo.
This guy sort of has his own show. I would like to have his collection.
The brand new GQ mag has a couple of pages on vinyl resurgence, mentions labels like Sub Pop, etc. bringing the LP back. There are also short reviews of 3 new albums on LPs, by Cold War Kids (meh), The Walkmen (Yeah!), and the other group, I'm blanking out on.
