Ever listen to music while watching porn? I think it's incredible! Sometimes, when the stars align and the video actually catches the beat of the music, it's just great! There are those rare instances when the video catches the rhythm and the lyrics suit the action on the screen. Then, it becomes pure art.

I had Madeleine Peyroux singing Blue Alert in the background with porn on the screen and it was pure magic. Check this out:

Visions of her drawing near
Arise, abide, and disappear
You try to slow it down
It doesn't work

New to the whole turntable thing in fact it hasn't been delivered yet. Hopefully this week. So here I am looking for cables. I am getting a Pro-Ject Experience and will be using it with a Pro-Ject Tube Box II connected to a Synthesis Nimis integrated. My question is:

Are silver interconnects a good match with a turntable?

I recently returned to using a 1978 pair of Rogers LS3/5a speakers. They still have a great sound - an openness and warmth that is very enticing. They really can just disappear like few other speakers I have heard. Are there any more modern speakers that capture the "style" of the Rogers? I know that Stirling and Harbeth make direct replacements, I am wondering more about speakers that might extend the bass or offer other refinements, while still capturing the style of the LS3/5a's.

Hi, I'm looking to replace an old turntable (30 years old). I am looking at a price of about $1000 or less. I'm considering the Rega P3-24,the Music Hall MMF 5.1, and the Pro-ject RPM 5. Any thoughts on these or any others that you think I should consider. Much appreciated!

In the final article of the current(?) Stereophile, the columnist mentions that he's unwilling to follow the current common wisdom and sell his CDs after ripping them, because he likes the feeling of having them.

Disturbingly there is no mention of the legality and ethics of the situation.

I was similarly disturbed when the response to an earlier letter to the editor did not mention the ethics and legality of the practice (someone ripped and sold their CDs, and then their drive crashed - causing the letter writer substantial angst).

I know that Robert Baird did not like it so much (http://blog.stereophile.com/musicroom/robertbaird/022508loud/) but I thought Jonny Greenwood's score for There Will Be Blood was impressively well done. Sure you can say that he's a Radiohead guitarist ripping off classical composers, but I thought it was all very smartly done & greatly added to the movie.

HI!

My wife and I are moving from a 450 sq foot condo to a real house and I am finally indulging a dream to get a real hi fi audio system. Based on reviews here and there, I've decided to center it around the RR 2150. For speakers and cds, here is where I am at right now:

For a new start lets talk here. This meanders a bit but stay with me please. For several years in the past, the Dallas District Attornys have been getting 100% conviction rates. All of the sudden DNA testing begins to prove, in case after case, that the convicted and sentenced to death, are innocent. Even those who were convicted by eyewitnesses. They percieved the killer before them, but it just wasn't so.

I've told this first story before, but...

When my wife and I started dating, she asked about the kinds of music I liked, and I replied in some way that indicated a clear disdain for "country" music.

The moment passed, and our life together proceeded, until one day, after we'd been living together for a while, she informed me, "You know, for a guy who doesn't like country music, you sure listen to alot of it."

I said, "Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, woman? I don't like country."
