Great ideas from other posters before me. This is what I had in my SHO until I sold it. head unit: Eclipse speakers front- rainbow components front amp- arc sub- Diamond Audio Mac Daddy sub amp- ppi total cost around $1750 plus about $100 for sound deading. It sound dam good...

I hope neither counts I am not in country now put plan on returing soon.

Based on my naïve and limited experience I like Led Zeppelin better. I have only heard Led Zeppelin 1 while I have heard The Who Who’s next and live at Leeds. From that small sample I concur both bands are awesome in their own right and like each one immensely. I guess Zep just does it for me more.

Thanks so much matt. I just picked up John Coultrane Blue Trane and Miles Davis Kinda Blue. I am going to dig into those to night. I hope to chase down many of your suggestions.

Just got the Album last night. Have listened to it several times. I really enjoyed their first release. I would describe this attempt as more of the same but in a good way. If you are not paying attention to it can drone on and sound mundane. A lot like the first record, but there is enough...

This is never dead Thanks for the suggestions. I pretty much have some work from every one you mentioned besides a couple. I almost picked up Badly Drawn Boy but I did not know what to get. While overseas I got a video of his on MTV Europe that I like. Any help there? Again...

A few weeks a go I request some help to pick out some music. The post primarily focused on rock and off shots of that genre. And thank you all for all your suggestions, many of the CD’s I already and the ones I did not I have been tracking down. Now I am curious about finding some good...

I was born in 1983 and I am part of the generation that grew out of all the memories you guys are talking about. When I was young I played out doors all the time, had a tree fort, played local pickup football games and baseball games, played imaginary war with the neighborhood, using pine cones...

also try Mirrow Ball an other alubm with lot of guitars. His back up band was pearl Jam.

I do not know the name of the song bit try his album ragged glory for it. Every song is filled with long electric guitar solos.

SR 80 Build Quality Speaking of SR 80 build quality you remind me I need to send mine off to get fixed. They have no sound in the left ear. Really though the quality is all right if you treat them right, mine are 4 or 5 years old and have been tossed around a bit, I got them when I was 13 or...

I just got of pair px 200’s to give my ears a break when I am tired of sticking my Ety’s in my ears. I have not burned them in yet but they still sound nice. By the way how do you burn them in? But I still like my Grado SR 80’s better but they do sound nice. it is nice to have a collapsible...

I borrowed their double disc album from the Library and loved it. I was wonder besides that album what other smashing pumpkin albums should I get? I can’t afford to get them all so if you could recommend there best two or three I would really appreciate it. thanks

Hey guys thanks again for all the Suggestions. It will take me seemingly forever to check them out. I did however was able to chase down a few. I bought the Sigur Ros cd and really enjoy it. I also bought a Massive Attack CD and enjoy it as well. I also checked out John Coultrane, while...

I would like to thank everyone for the input on this thread and for helping me out the best you can. After doing all my research I went to the store and picked up and felt and messed with both the Nomad Zen and Ipod. I liked the feel and ease of you use much better with the Ipod and got a 30...

Hey its cool. If I get Hd player I gotta know how to encode the files and what bitrate to use. I will take any first hand knowledge I can get.

I like MD in a lot of ways, but I want a device that I can load up all most of my music and not mess with it very often. The thought of toting around slightly smaller round discs over lager round discs does not sound like a big advantage over an old Sony pcdp, which I have. MD is cute...

That is what I was thinking Sweet Spot. this is hard so many chocies. Nothing is perfect and it is hard to find a good comprise.

How about some of the other HD players like the Nomad Jukebox 3, Nomad Zen, or the New Rio Karma or the New Iriver player. How do they compare to the Ipod. Some features I want are Good Space, enough for 100 cd's Durable Good Sound Size ( smallish would be nice) Able to put in...

I have a few questions I was wondering if all you kind people could help me out with. I am looking to set up a portable rig; I am interested in converting from a Redbook to HD player. I have ruled out MD because of the time to convert about 100 cd’s to MD and still having 100 MD’s to hall...

Thanks for all the good suggestions. Yeah I like hip-hop quite a lot. Have the N.E.R.D. cd and enjoy it a lot. I also enjoy listing to Outkast and Roots and music in that vein. I just forgot to mention it. Likes like I will have plenty of music to chase down and sample. I should be...

Great link. For those of you that have not seen homestarrunner.com I suggest you explore the site. It conatins a bunch of very funny stuff.

I would like draw on the vast knowledge and musical experience of this board and like some musical suggestions that might interested me based on my tastes of music. I now this is a hard thing to ask and music is subjective but I am interested in finding some new stuff and up for trying a variety...

Thanks austonia, I checked out the reivew before I picked it up. I did a search like good boy and found as much info I could. To bad best buy did not have it on sale this week though. Atleast my mom really likes it.
