I think what may be most appealing, among the many characteristics of Jazz, is that, in most of its forms, it draws the listener deeply into the music-making. It swings, and that is certainly a powerful lure, but our involvement doesn't stop at finger snapping or toe tapping. Jazz, most of it anyway, is grounded on compelling melody lines and the artistic improvisation built around them. Great jazz groups are united in a particular performance and they welcome the listener to join in.
You are given the task of putting together a speaker/amp/ integrated/receiver? system with a budget of $1200.00 for a newbee. They have an older CD player and turntable he/she will replace next year. They have earmarked $1,000 each for the next two years for new source equipment, but, that is the next two years.
You are only asked to recommend a pair of speakers and some kind of amp to get them started on the road to audiophilia. What do you suggest? 
Atlanta Percussion Trio
Very interesting concert my wife was kind enough to order tickets for months ago. Performed in a quaint little beautifully renovated theater seating about 1,000 in Cartersville, GA., north of Atlanta. 99% percussion instruments from all over the world. These cats could play. The leader also plays with the ASO. Very nice.
