    Wow, I now have to get my news from AS. I have news aps and watch news and I just now learned of his death. That's a shame, I thought he was more respected or well known than that. Of the solo material I've heard I was not the biggest fan but...

    Live Your Music by Gizelle Anguizola. What makes this album fun Gizelle tap dances as part of the percussion, you can hear it in the right channel for the most part. She has some type of board she stands on. A friend saw her do this live.

    The MC10 will work brilliantly with the N20 and say an Esoteric K-01XD SE. Then both the Esoteric and N20 clock off the same clock Another option is take the DAC and clock funds and put it into an MSB DAC which have clock sync options so you...

    The Eversolo A6 was reviewed in FA, from that review I'd avoid the A6. The writer says he couldn't tell any difference between the A6 and the Bluesound Node. He mentions the Orchard Pecan Pie at $799 was better sounding than either. The review is...
