Silver Member Username: StryvnPost Number: 216 Registered: Dec-06 | Last night I started a campfire out in the back yard. Got out the ol' Dewalt boombox, a couple of camp chairs and a cooler full of beer. Mr. and Mrs. Stryvn sat down to a roaring fire around 8:30. I start to rifle up and down the tuner on the boombox. Stopped at some station or another for a tune....and the next, and the next. Turns out to be The 70's with Steve Goddard we're listening to. Next thing I know it's 1am. This morning I wake up feeling like I've spent the night with a woman I shouldn't have. Next saturday night we stay in the house close to the cdp. Very close. |

First disc I ordered arrived today and the first disc in the queue shipped yesterday. Hopefully I'll see that one Monday. I've got 20 in queue right now....lol. |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 4899 Registered: Feb-05 | I work a 4x10 schedule so I'm off Friday thru Sunday...it is the official the weekend...yippie!! Yourmusic ships slower than anyone, but worth it. If you follow their similar artist links you can find a lot of good stuff for $6.99. I put 40-50 in the queue and buy when I can...since they are linked with BMG I wait until BMG offers 65% off with free shipping and buy 15-20 off of my queue then load up some more. Unfortunately it's so cheap I'm missing soem good new jazz and classical that is on my written wish list and my Amamzon wish list. Sad news; we are losing the best independent classical music store that I know of...you'll find mention of it in my profile. The Musique Gourmet is closing it's doors after 22 years. I will miss Don Lambden immensely. He sent his loyal customers a monthly newsletter with "Don's Choice" new releases and discounts. He was also an important sponser of KWAX one of this country's finest classical music radio stations, public, no advertising and no news, just music and music education...how fresh! I made a monthly pilgrimmage to Eugene to buy new classical from Don...what a shame. In the Apollo: KT Tunstall "Eye to the Telescope" 6.99 at yourmusic...lol!! |

Mike Wodek and I were shopping a while back, and I pulled Al offa the rack on Vinyl, 'year of the cat' and suggested he might want to try it. The price was steep, not sure if he followed through. The record company always treated Al well, throwing all the best support behind him, I think, even though the sales tailed off. If I beg, would you send me a cd? When my puter gets back into shape I will reciprocate. If I spelled it right, it's the word of the day! |

I placed the speaks attacking the long part of the room, with bare surfaces, and got the result I expected. Better dipersion, more timing issues bwfore treatment. But DOSTM was excellent, My JCM reference was really good, but I was cancelling out the reverbs and secondary sounds as I listened. Am I listening in a more defined way? Or should I pour another beer?\ Please advise, as the beer is close by. Horrid, awful week gone by, it worked out today, but I payed in blood, sweat and tears. Ain't got any of them, you guy's? |
