Who Says Jazz Isn't Commercial?

Who Says Jazz Isn't Commercial?

The ad team at Dolce & Gabbana seems to think it can be. Would Charles Mingus’ “Moanin’” become a best-seller if more people knew it sounded so cool—or if the millions who watched <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMWofLZ6gH8">this TV commercial</A> knew that’s what they were hearing? Could it be that jazz just needs shrewder marketing? (The whole song can be heard on Mingus’ great 1959 album, <I>Blues & Roots</I>.)

New system advice sought using Sonus Faber Concertinp's as base

I loved the sound of the Sonus Faber Concertino's Domus and am looking to build a system around them (I have no components right now).

I'm not sure about the number of channels I want and am having a bit of a dilemma deciding between two concertino domus's and either two concerto home or two wall domus (saw both of these on auction) to go with the concertino's. Though, if I loose the bids I don't think I'll buy more than two speakers.

First you said you didn't have Klipsch, then it was Harberts, then some Himatomo something or other, I have no idea what you are talking about, then you had 6W that is all you need, then a McIntosh from teh 60's that of course is better than anything in this century....Now scotch tape over insuffiencet sized wires are the thing. Are you sure you ain't really got a BLOSE? Now you have 6 foot speakers...If you would learn to communicate, I'd know what you are talking about.....If you don't know what SLAM and IMPACT is, live music ain't your reference is it?
