Strange ER-4P problem
Whew, okay, that's good to hear. Thanks for the tips. That is pretty pricey for a new set of filters, but after what I heard yesterday morning, I don't mind supporting this company a little over time.- BlindSeer

Strange ER-4P problem
I'll probably end up contacting Etymotic Research about this in the next few days, but I figured maybe I'd get a faster initial response here. I just got a used set of Ety ER-4Ps in the mail today. I used them for a few hours this morning and loved them- no problems with seal, comfort, or...- BlindSeer

Looking for similar vocal music
Quote: Originally posted by scrypt Personally, I can't recommend the Rachmaninov because I really dislike that composer. No matter how hard I listen, he always sounds schmaltzy to me. I agree that some of his works are a little (okay, more than a little) over the top, especially... -
Looking for similar vocal music
For similar unaccompanied (a cappella) vocal music, I'd recommend Rachmaninov's Vespers. They have the same kind of "neo-Renaissance" feel to them as the Barber and are really quite beautiful. If you don't mind having an orchestra in there, I would strongly recommend one of my favorite... -
Albums you regret buying

Lost all data... need new mp3's to restock.

YAY :D
Just to warn you, don't count on the battery working when you receive it. I ordered a similar package from half.com a while ago and the battery was unfortunately no longer functional. I guess these things tend to die after a while. Hope you have better luck.- BlindSeer

CDnow's Amazon Takeover RANT
Allmusic is still a great resource with artist bios and very complete discographies. We'll just hope Amazon doesn't get to them too.- BlindSeer

Here's my symphony collection; what else should I get?
The 4 Brahms symphonies are a must. I could go on and on about different composers you should check out, but I say go for those first. Also, glad to hear you're interested in hearing more Shostakovich. For a great complete symphonies set at a ridiculously low price, go for the Barshai set... -

Where is a good place for buying cds online?
For classical CDs, check out the Berkshire Record Outlet (www.broinc.com). They carry a lot of cutouts and overrun CDs for ridiculous prices. Just yesterday I drove out there (I live near the Berkshires) and picked up 70 CDs for $140. All of the CDs I bought were under the Brilliant Classics...
