Nowadays It is much more easy to earn money with a tribute band then with own new work. Play and sing some evergreens and everybody is happy. Unless you are really good and have the right marketing, hardly no one is visiting your performance with music they don’t know

My expensive 2nd hand audio gear is never ever shipped by delivery services like Fedex, oh hell no :eek: I always will get them personally in my own car even when it takes a whole day of driving.

I bought some second hand stuff, some buys I am very happy with. The Bryston preamp is still working and very good. Also a Marantz sacd player is still functional which I bought 2nd hand in 2009, and my Denafrips Dac is still in my setup. The latter was almost new. On the other hand: guarantee...

A list of concerts what they have in the library would help. No idea what I miss not taking it. For that hi-res subscription: a concert ticket in the theatre cost the same and then I support (local) musicisians

If the audio world really want this Ether Regen, why does it take so long for a new model?

Sadly for the masterworks Tunnel of love and Romeo and Juliet, les boys is also on that album, which doesn’t make this DS album my nr 1 anymore. I never liked that lyrics.

if you look at the average top rankings in different countries of all DS albums, making movies ended on the last place. If an album like this is the least selling, it does say something how good this band was. The final part of the first track tunnel of love is ridiculous beautiful.

Is it my browser or is the calculation wrong? A different speaker power of 50/100 or 400 does give the same 1 Watt minimum and 10 Watt recommended.

Sad to hear that Chris Rea passed away. Driving home for Christmas is one of the best songs these days. he will be missed life is short but art is long

A thing of me since the invasion I stopped listening alot of Russian music. Tchaikovski is acceptable because from an earlier period, but those begin 20th century symphonies is army music. For instance::there is no way I can enjoy Shostakovich 7th Leningrad symphony

I don’t need AI for optimization. My ears are the best measuring instrument available. What AI cannot know: I am deaf below and above certain frequencies. So I only can adjust the settings to my personal taste and if another person with better ears hears too many treble and bass, I don’t care 🤷‍♂️

Time for Mahler. This time the 3rd and the 5th symphony with the wonderful adagio.

You don't have to go to the best player to enjoy piano music. Here in my country there are piano's at certain train stations. It is really impressive what some amateur players perform.

No brainer: Qobuz has the best SQ
