A new Feelies double-live record has been announced. It's a Velvet Underground Tribute from a Jersey City show 5 years ago. http://www.bar-none.com/store/the-feelies-time-for-a-witness-8lka7

Caught The Feelies at ArtsQuest/SteelStacks in Bethlehem, PA Friday night. They were at Ottobar (Baltimore) on Saturday. Big fun.

The Eagle has landed. Installation is going to require some reshuffling of gear. Should be a fun weekend - witholding audio judgements for another week or two in light of the extended break-in period many have reported.

It'll probably be hard to shut me up, lol.

Well my Pontus made it to Alaska last night and is expected for delivery on Friday. I feel like a kid watching the Santa map on Christmas eve. Of course there's that week or two of break in before it sounds it's best, but I'll be happy just to look at it for a while, lol.

I pulled the trigger on a Pontus II 12a yesterday. Will probably ship Monday or Tuesday. Pretty stoked to see what it does for my system - I'm expecting good things. The few criticisms I've seen have all been matters of preference, and the strengths described by listeners are consistently the...

Any Denafrips owners care to say a little bit about your experience? It's been a couple of years since my last gear upgrade and I've got 'the itch'. Pontus II has been on my radar for awhile now, and I'm thinking the time has come. I was able to have a brief listen to an ARES 2 in an...

I've been using Roon for just about a year. After doing the trial period I subscribed and set up my 'collection' by connecting to my Tidal account and just searching by artist and ticking the 'add to collection' button for those items I own. I was working off of a list I had already maintained...

I completely agree. I've had a few different subs over the years (all pretty good quality, including a couple of serious DIY projects) and the Rythmik is definitely something special. I have a pretty strong preference for sealed subs - so I've had those before, but it's the first servo sub...

Steve Wynn & the Miracle 3 - ...tick...tick...tick

Much LUNA was heard at my place this weekend.

I'll have to agree. Still working my way through all kinds of threads, but my overwhelming impression is that there's A LOT of good info here from people who have an interest in actually ENJOYING the hobby. How refreshing, lol.

I’ve got a preorder in for one from the second run. Lots of praise from all over the place. I’m curious to hear the performance -and- the sound of Kevin Gray’s new setup. 👍😎
