Clearly speakers will be the winner. If you look at the market now virtually, no one wants 17 inch boxes and large speakers the vast majority of speakers now sold range from cheap desktop. Bluetooth speakers to ever more sophisticated, active models. as time passes, fewer and fewer people want...

Half of Americans no longer believe in capitalism, and would not think of this is a crime

Maybe they are just sparing our feelings, instead of pointing out our inadequacies, in being unable to answer their questions

Wiim is a good way to experiment since you already have Amazon HD. The best signal an iPhone can transmit is 16/44 which is CD quality. With the whim, you can directly stream using your iPhone as the controller the way you have been doing. In this case, the streaming is direct and you can...

The functions and settings on receivers vary quite a bit. To accurately answer your question we would need to know what receiver you are using.some automatically move all the bass to the two channel setting. some do not. On one of my Yamaha’s, if I use the direct, setting, the receiver...

Buy yourself a set of suspension speakers like these with 8 inch drivers which frequently sell for about $99. Then get an entry-level receiver and turn the bass control all the way up and run that receiver on the direct mode. Lastly, purchase a cheap turntable and play some half dirty, semi...

Not surprisingly, the people who respond to these types of polls always pick their formative era of age 15 to 25 as the best. It should make us admire Mozart and Beethoven that much more. Their stuff is over 200 years old, and still appeals to a wide cross-section of listeners.

I could swear that I briefly had a Luxman receiver that was rebranded through Lafayette electronics, a national electronics chain? It was a heavy unit, but very bright sounding, and I gave it away. It was about two years old and most of the lightbulbs were already burned out. I see no mention...

Back in the day, even cheap pioneer turntables had meters which is why they sounded better. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php/?fbid=5898389886921034No

The point is that neither is very expensive so you might as well buy the one with the meters. Also, if you are going to be comparing speakers, you don’t have to get up and flip the switch every time if you have the remote control.

Yes, but it would be problematic for a lot of units to lend themselves to the addition of the meters. Therefore, I would far prefer for them to be incorporated at the time of manufacture.

These were $179 a couple of weeks back and I think they’re worth it https://www.newegg.com/klipsch-1060686/p/0S6-0033-001D7

We are nearing the end of music where every combination of notes has already been used. In the future, only dialogue and emphasis will separate new music from something already out there. The copyright lawsuits are increasing as the years pass.

$195 for these...

Bill Haley and the comets preceded Elvis. There were certainly other earlier ones, but no one with the big hits that Haley had.

Billy Joel thinks he knows the answer to the original question here

Yeah, the teenage tragedy genre which was a mainstay of classical rock. See how many you can name. I will cheat by leading off with a leader of the pack

“Patches”by Dickie Lee, and “Honey “by bobby Goldsboro were the only true rock ‘n’ roll songs
