Okay, so I'll answer my own call for some posts about music.

Just picked this new double CD by a group billed as Trio Beyond

called Saudades

Jazz Lives!
Bird Lives!
Miles Lives!
Dizzy Lives!
Monk Lives!
Billie Lives!
Duke Lives!

but this section is DEAD!!

What's up with that? Come on people, let's get with it. Enough with all the posts about equipment, both real and imagined. How about discussions about the meat of matter, the heart beat of this whole stinking hobby - music, for crying out loud!

I brought Pathos Classic One MkII. I auditioned the amplifier a year before Sam Tellig's review, but after reading the review I decide to buy one. Of course, the amplifier had some strong points but it also had somewhat anemic handling capabilities in my system and relies on the cold and lean side of spectrum. One and only product made me not believe the qualities, the detail, the immediancy and the guts I was hearing: Jadis Orchestra Reference integrated/control amplifier KT90 equipped.

Has anyone tried to contact or order anything from chesky records in the past month? I ordered a few cd's about three weeks ago and recieved an email saying my order was recieved. As of today I haven't recieved anything. I have sent them three emails without any answer. I have also tried to call them about half a dozen times at different times of the day and different days of the week. Noone ever answers the phone and the message sends me to voicemail. The mailbox always states that it's full and noone can leave a message.
