  1. Red Snapper - Reeled and Skinned (1995)
  2. Michele Rosewoman - Quintessence (1987)
  3. Can - The Peel Sessions (1995) Woo fucking hoo! Finally got this on CD, minty fresh, for a fairly reasonable price. Still I spend more than I ever intended on it. Very good stuff and very very hard to find in good condition.
  4. Symbyosis - On the Wings of Phoenix (2005)
  5. I really should get sepia colored glasses.
  6. Al Di Meola - Elegant Gypsy / Casino BGO Records remaster is not bad at all. Very clean sounding and not compressed.
  7. Played with positioning and found this works the best: Plus now my apartment looks like a magazine advertisement from the 70's

    I want that! I might even go camping if I get this stuff, or not.
  9. Heinz Holliger - Romancendres (2009)

    Blu-spec CD

    Just stumbled onto this stuff. Anyone has one of these? Is this just another gimmick? Weather Report - 8:30
  11. Gods of Fire - Hanukkah Gone Metal
  12. Changed placement and had them playing for some time now and I am amazed how resolving these speakers are. I never heard anything with this level of micro details short of Ergo AMT or SR-007, forget about all of the speakers that I heard, non of them come close I am talking about headphone levels of details here. Apogees are resolving, Quad 68 are resolving, ML speakers have a very good transient response and detalization, Magneplanar have lots of low lever details but these things are like a microscope all this while having the most lovely midrange ever. This is with an amp that is not that best amp form them by a long shot. I need to get Plinius SA100 or some similar sweet Class A monster in this ASAP
  13. Edgar Froese - Aqua (1974) Eela Craig - (1971) Eela Craig - (1976)[url=http://rateyourmusic.com/genre/Progressive+Rock/]
  14. I had a chance to get BIG SoundLabs, don't remember the model, for like 2K. But when I measured them they would not fin in my stairway, so I unless I would bring them in trough the window I was shit out of luck. I wish I had a house.
  15. Morton Subotnick - And the Butterflies Begin to Sing (1997)
  16. Эдисон Денисов "Пена дней" (Edison Denisov - Ecume des jours)
  17. I wish you could pick them up. After that many years it would be cool to find a good home for them. For now I might do a huge comparative listening session. Should be a lot of fun. Yeah, up to 15 degrees upwards.
  18. Shipping would be a problem unless you are moving to NYC!
  19. Yeah, I will tell my wife these are just new acoustic panels, you think she will believe me?
  20. So I finally got Stax In Da House! They are amp killers. Pass Aleph 3 kinda works nice but only low volume, DNA-1 works the best but not as sweet as Aleph 3. Symphonic Line amp works Ok as well. I was very sad that my class A hybrid low power amp does a horrible job driving them. I think I really need one of the small Stax amps to make the best of them. They sound incredibly detailed and accurate, with best mids I have ever heard in any speakers, including Quads. Dynamic are very nice for this type of speaker and bass reminds me if ESL-57 , does as deep as any small monitor does only a bit more detailed and snappy with diffused sound. The best thing about them is sound stage, pure holographic bliss, non of my speakers do what they can do. So if you are into folk, string quartets, vocal stuff these will blow your mind. If you want to rock out forgetaboutit, as they don't play loud and bass that is needed to enjoy metal and rock is just never gonna be there with these guys. Here so pic for you: Now I am ever more confused about that the hell I am going to do with Apogees. But most likely I will let them go after a long run and a lot of enjoyment.
