  1. I have very little John Adams around and after watching I AM LOVE with a JA soundtrack I want more. Any suggestions on where to start to explore?
  2. If you want an alternative interface for your library... Attic App - iPhone App For Forgotten Albums in Your Library
  3. x2 or 3 on the A5s. No they're not going to match the Quads, but very good for price. I have a pair of the bamboos. Also hunt around web. There are almost always discount codes around.
  4. Those Illinois Magnolian whores!
  5. And dance is...
  6. Fake him out with... Bach Organ MP3 downloads for free - dealmac.com
  7. Yeah, I don't get that statement (besides the marketing advantages for the newer product). Stereophiles review either. My time with the A2 was slight (basically ordered a pair for a friend, heard both side-by-side in store, called friend and had him ship back, ordered A5 for him... then pair for myself too), but if you can mentally remove the bass completely from the other areas, the rest of the sig may sound similar. I consider the A2s bass to be so overpowering and flabby it's hard to hear anything else. So difficult for me to answer, but it's not just greater definition, etc. Only other hint is every A2 owner I know tries to fix with ramp/vibration stands and no one I know who owns the A5 does. I thought the A5 was also better than the M-Audio Audiophile BX5, but they have different purposes and it depends a bit on part of the signature (top v. bottom) you focus on. The BX5 was much closer to the A5 than the A2.
  8. Doubt the Quads have much to worry about, but the A5s are a giant step up from the A2s. Don't let the latter taint the former.
  9. There's the Harmonia Mundi 50th anniversary box set too.
  10. Oops, I didn't even know we were reserving tables. If there's 1/2 available I'd gladly fill.
  11. Songcatcher soundtrack. Have my issues with the film, but great bluegrass tracks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlE6FIl68rc
  12. I think that's covered by...
  13. To be fair, CDs have the advantage that you only need one. Well, unless if you include opera.
  14. College offers freshmen a choice: iPad or MacBook - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)
  15. Smaller selections, but the B&W Society of Sound (on their site) and Reference Recordings (thru HDTracks or HRx on DVD as Al mentioned) has some great hi-res Classical.
  16. Nice. Not sure which was better for... Any other Sinclair users?
  17. Cheers to those of us who started on Timex Sinclairs! Even prepped us for near virtual keyboards. Timex Sinclair 1000 computer To be honest, except for some early models I had as a kid, the iPhone has been my favorite computer. Maybe that's why I'm so excited about the direction the iPad and Chrome OS tablets point.
  18. Pre-ordered for this weeks release on a film many have been waiting forever to show on VHS, DVD or Blu-ray.
  19. Oops.
  20. | V
  21. Dell Goes Small in Tablets as It Prepares iPad Competition - Digits - WSJ
  22. Congrats! Did you go the extra mile and pick up a protective case also?
  23. Maybe e-book prices won
  24. The next iPad. Well next after next after next ... * The iPad Is Step 1 In The Future Of Computing. This Is Step 2 (Or 3). * Though I still think the gloves and lack of portability will make a more direct derivative of iPad more likely even when this is a technical possibility.
