    Killing Eve

    Enjoying the latest season but is anyone else annoyed by the constant background soundtrack of traffic, crickets, and just noise in general? Odd production value. We have to turn on the closed caption to understand the dialog.

    Great live recordings

    I think you should consider Neil Young"s Live at Massey Hall. It's an very old acoustic set that introduces several new songs that went on to be classics. The SQ is absolutely stunning. One of my live fav's.

    The Blues Music thread | Strictly Blues ?

    Thanks for this, I was not aware of Beth Hart but have ordered up some of her cd's from the library to check out. Great female blues singer - just what I like.

    Whats your Top 5 Tracks to test a Hifi system?

    Laughed out loud reading your list and running into 12x5 among some orchestral pieces. I love 12x5 (SACD) although I'm partial to the extended version of 2120 S Michigan Ave vs. your fav. Cheers!

    Tweaks : A sensible investment or a waste of money?

    You've got to take them out at some point to validate their performance. I had a HRS damper on top of my YBA integrated for well over 2 years. One day I removed it for no real reason and found it had over damped the amp. Removing it produced a touch more timbre. Likely component/chassis...

    I got "The Look" from the wife as she walked by the music room...

    I agree that loading the room once in a while is absolutely necessary. In my house we play the main system a lot, but at fairly low listening levels, say 65 db. Those levels never really produce decent bass and overall balance in my ProAc D15's. Pushing it up to 80+db's transforms my system...

    Apple Airport Express as Internet Audio Streaming Receiver

    Wow, great article. I've got so many apple products lying around unused - iPod Touch, original iPad, 2 Express units I was hoping I could figure out how to use them for streaming. Seems simple but one question ( it might be stupid) Why do you need the DAC? - is it only to send audio to the speakers?

    Megalithic old structures how did they cut move 1200 ton stones ???

    I have watched this documentary - seems very scientific vs speculative. Bottom line - they propose the pyramids were power plants. No aliens, just an advanced civilization we have no evidence of, except for that right in front of our eyes.

    Netflix - Black Mirror

    If you like a thinking man's Sci-Fi this may be the best TV series in a long time. Theme is technology gone amok, and it really does a nice job predicting and displaying how technology could work in the future - all the while ruining people's lives, of course. I watched the episode "White...

    Do you pay attention to electrostatic discharge (ESD)?

    If your source is a cd you may have static built up on the cd. Happens to me on well played CD's. I just use a CD cleaner spray and the SQ returns.

    What albums do you play weekly?

    We play music most nights before dinner and have for years. I find the following are played once a week more or less: Peter Wolf - Sleepless AKUS - 1 of the last 2 released Down from the Mountain - Music from O' Brother musicians John Hiatt - Master of Disaster (Love the song My Thunderbird)...
