    Albums for Concentration

      I'm looking for some instrumental albums to play while I'm reading or studying. Did a few searches on here and didn't find anything.  I'm not looking to feel like I'm in a yoga class in india or something, so I'd prefer something that's not too out there.

    New Article on the X-fi...

    I don't trust any computer review sites to review audio equipment, even if it is a soundcard. Most probably the reviewers are not experienced listeners, and hence can't really disect whether and how something sounds better. Their reviews are merely technical.

    Vinyl Dive: Goldring GR1 or Project Xpression 1

    I'm going to get my first turntable and I'm trying to decide between a Goldring GR1 and a Project Model 1 Xpression. I'll be upgrading either one to a Ortofon Vinyl Master White cartridge. That leaves them at around 400 euros, here in europe. They'll be hooked up to a NAD PP2 Preamp. Which...

    Petition: Apple MWSF Webcast Link

    This year's MWSF keynote isn't going to be webcast live. It should be posted just after the event finished. I'd like to watch it without knowing what has been released. Given the risk that if I looked for the link I might catch some important news, I was wondering if someone could post it...
