Stop me if you've heard this one: Back in the early 1990s, just after the fall of the Soviet Union, I debated professor of music engineering and magazine columnist Ken Pohlmann on a talk show on the CBS radio network. The subject was analog sound vs digital sound, but I guess when Pohlmann felt I was getting the upper hand, he felt he needed to play the tube card. Derisively, he said, "I bet you're one of those tube guys, too, aren't you?" Before I could open my mouth, he continued: "You know, the Soviet Union's military gear, including the MIG fighters, ran on tube electronics, and look what happened to them!"

Forums

I was just at the Epos web site www.epos-acoustics.com and saw this new line of loudspeaker. Accept for some changes in power handling (on the m16i) and the m22i being 2 1/2-way, as opposed to the m22 being 3-way, the only big change appears to be cosmetic.

Other than what Epos has posted on their site I couldn't locate any other info. Is anyone familiar with this new line?

2 channel CD player advice

I hope this is the right place to post this question. I have an older 2 channel system in need of a new source. This system consists of Levinson No. 28 preamp, No. 27 amp, Magnapan 3.5R speakers. The old source RIP was a Proceed MRC 100.

I have been searching reviews and asking around at the local high end shops. Here are a few that I have interest in:
Ayre CX-7e
Primare CD31
Marantz sa-11s1

Budget computer sound system suggestions?

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to get my notebook computer to have better sound but i have a really tight budget. I pretty much live on my notebook so it's most practical and affordable to upgrade the sound on that rather than investing in a home system.

I recently purchased the Creative SB Audigy 2 Notebook and a pair of Shure e3c's. The sound improved but I'm not satisfied. I've never owned or even listened to a great sound system but i know that the sound can get a lot better than this.

Product rave...Westone ES49

I've been checking out some of those 'ear care' products that are supposed to attenuate volume yet preserve frequency response and I recently got fitted for the ES49 filters made by Westone and headed out into the amplified fray.

On Saturday night, Big Mike, another friend, and I went to the Social Distortion show and stood at the back edge of the mosh area and took in the sights and sounds.
