Okay, > 1:1.

You guys have way more interesting posts in this thread than I can even put words to.

Ratio of to pic is 1:1.

Satchmo plays King Oliver

Isn't there a setting for the speed?

I didn't get the feeling that it was just one song, but the credits only list one song. I liked all of them. And yes, I have the album wishlisted. That's what I call audiophile music -- that's why they play that kind of music -- that sparse, jazz trio shit -- at all the audiophile conventions. It makes any system sound good.

Chinese or Thai in about 30 minutes.

Really, the accent is on the 3rd syllable? Laughing at/with Voltron about "nope still doesn't sound good". I'm trying to think of it without thinking of ketchup, and I can't. I think that's my problem. I bet it'd be really good as a ketchup replacement -- I have a sweet tooth.

The Heads, as in the Talking Heads minus David Byrne? My latest old discovery was Wishbone Ash. Dang they were good.

Schubert, Trout Quintet, Rosamunde Quartet, SACD

You're not alone. I've read other people (read: professional reviewers) that have proclaimed (paraphrasing), "a violin is supposed to have bark and bite. And an unmuted trumpet at full throttle can be piercing."

And here I was, thinking you were talking about brothers Tim and Neil.

Zing.

You could always go MOT and woody headphones...

This is so great, that I just went back and started it over. With different headphones. I'm hearing things I've never heard before (which means it's either a better transfer, or they compressed it a little). I really would love to hear this and Glassworks on SACD.

So many questions about that picture, most start with "why...". Thanks for the reminder Hopstretch, in for three -- guaranteed to get laid that way. Perhaps I'll wear all three at the same time, maybe I'll get a kumquat foursome. Of course, with my luck, it'll be with those three in the above pic.

I've never heard a Woo, but I've been following the market, and if I had to buy a tube amp today "blind", that's what I'd buy.

Google "comfy grado"? Are those the same things as what everyone refers to as the "comfy pads"? Someone else would need to confirm.

Koyaanisqatsi soundtrack, complete version Wait, there's a DCC of ELO?

Now that one is black enough for me.

Hiromi was very satisfying. Back to the Schubert Mahler -- this is the arrangement for string orchestra by Mahler of Death and the Maiden, which is very nice.

Jesus. New brakes? What do faulty brakes have to do with your car not being able to go? That should make it go moar fastr.

Team Arcy Sparky's logo before we settled on the name.

Elephant hunting is illegal in most countries, if not internationally. Even if it's assisted suicide. Not that I doubt your abilities, Elephas. You are super cool. Just Spritzer's motives.
