This album was some of her best work. IMO, her top five albums were the first two solo albums, the two Little Willies albums, and this one.

I guess just a little info on where I'm at might help with suggestions. The Stello DA220 came out in 2004. It was originally around $1200. I think I got it used from a Head-Fi friend for $750. It was, at the time, highly recommended, and reviewers often compared it to DACs that cost $3000 or...

I'll definitely take a look at it. Thanks. One other thing I didn't mention before. The Pontus II does meet this requirement, but I do want a balanced DAC.

No, I haven't. The last time I went to a meet, they were just starting to come out (gain popularity), but I was there more for social reasons then to actually listen to anything. I spent the day hanging out with LFF, and don't think I really listened to anything. I've met the Schiit guys, but...

Oh oh, the bug has bitten me again. I'm thinking about possibly getting a new DAC. I currently have a Stello DA220, which is a darn good DAC, but I'm wondering what's out there right now up to $1000, and perhaps as much as $1500 that would surpass what I already have. I do love how punchy and...

Just ordered one for my work setup. Thanks Todd!

Sounds like I will be there.

I was just wondering about this very topic. Thanks for the info.

I just bought the tickets for myself and Iron_Dreamer. Please make sure that we both have badges. Did I read correctly that parking discount coupons would be supplied at registration? Also, will we be able to come and go with the parking or are we stuck there all day?

Sounds like I'll be there with Iron_Dreamer and Edwood.

Just saw this; how sad...

Quote: I don't know about that... The industry isn't completely stupid. If people are willing to spend more on a headphone as a fashion accessory, then we'll just have more fashion accessories that cost a lot. It wouldn't necessarily have any bearing on sound quality, and when you throw...

Yeah, bose, beats, and turbines....

So I was looking through the Staples Ad and noticed the Solo Beats by Dr. Dre are $180, and it made me laugh. Apparently, if your headphones are a fashion accessory, then $180 is a perfectly reasonable price (seems like every kid around this town has a pair), but if you spend $180 for headphones...

Sent the link to a few friends... Please don't kill this series!

Just caught this... THANK YOU BENCHMARK!!! Great tunes, fun the see how the songs come together, and then of course, the whole high rez part...

Rest in peace my dear friend. You'll be greatly missed! Thanks for the music, the laughs, and the Cubans.

But there are so many more from this movie!!!   "Run Away!!!!"   "It's just a flesh wound" ...and many more   Quote:

Okay this should be fun. Find me the best bass test tracks in your collection. You can name either the album if it's generally good or a single stand out track. I'm not looking for just booming, I'm looking for deep, solid, and tight high quality bass. Tracks/albums that clip badly or that are...

We got my little brother a pair of the AV-40s for his birthday. I would rate them a 10 for their cost to performance ratio. To get better sound you'd have to spend considerably more money. They do sound significantly better when placed on speaker stands and properly positioned relative to the...

The Furman you're looking at seems to offer the same LiFT and SMP technologies as the PL-8C pro/rack model that I have. I was very impressed with the difference it made (overall detail improved, bass tightened up substantially, seemed like yet another layer of nastiness was removed from the...

I have to go with Track 2 "Saeed" as my favorite track... Dig the Jonathan Davis Track and a few others as well. Vicious Delicious was a better album.
