    great sax

    Not a group, but one of the best sax players I have heard is Mindi Abair. (Easy on the eyes, too!:D)

    Cambridge Audio S30 minimonitors.

    No pictures. I thought I still had my mom's old digital camera, but apparently not.:( The more I listen to the speakers, the more I continue to revise my opinion of them upwards. They are quickly going from "excellent for the size and/or price" to "among the best I have ever heard, period."...

    OK seriously wtf!

    How do they stay out of jail? There are laws against fraud, right?:confused:

    OK seriously wtf!

    That would explain a lot. They make a lot more sense as art than as a real company. The sad thing is that there are people deluded enough to actually buy their stuff. Clever little clocks?!:D

    Cambridge Audio S30 minimonitors.

    Not a lot of camera skills, but I will give it a try. One of the things that looks way cool is that the speakers are practically dwarfed by the stands (in fact, there were some stands I rejected because the top plate was too big!)

    dali ikon 2 or ascend sierras ?

    There aren't any dealers for the Sierras. You have to buy them online and return them if not satisfied.

    Anybody has Infinity inetrmezzos?

    Those are not on the Infinity website, so they must be discontinued. Any reason for your interest in that particular series?:confused: Their best sounding current models are the Beta series, and they also offer Cascade for those willing to pay a large premium for looks.

    Looking for a CD with good drums

    Try the Zarbang. You may find that it is your new reference.

    Should I Bi-amp or Bi-wire?

    Ironically, I ended up biwiring my new Cambridge S30s.:o Why? Because the Canare "star quad" cable is what I would have bought for them anyway (it is Blue Jean's heaviest gauge), and it makes biwiring trivially easy. I still don't believe it makes any difference, but it doesn't hurt anything and...

    Buckethead / Brain Carroll

    I have a CD by him, but it has a bit too much studio "polish". I wish he would put out a live recording.

    Looking for a CD with good drums

    Persian and Middle Eastern Percussion by Zarbang. Mondo Head by Kodo. Audio by Blue Man Group. Tala Matrix by Tabla Beat Science. Pretty much anything by Mickey Hart or Baba Olantunji (sp?).

    Does anyone think Ascend's 340SE's would best B&W 602.s3's?

    Got 'em. Love 'em. Full details in the review section. I may have to try the Sierras next.:)

    Cambridge Audio S30 minimonitors.

    When I got my Cambridge Audio electronics (Azur 340C CD player and 340A integrated amp), I was impressed enough with the performance/price that I had to try their speakers. The $260/pr S30s are the only speakers they make, and they recommend them with all their electronics (some of which are way...

    The way-ay-ting is the har-dest part!

    I got them, and to say merely that I am impressed would be an understatement. See the review section for details.

    .7 Ohm?! I am surprised any amp can handle that!:eek:

    Mockery of the Office of President

    Hey, that's pretty funny (even to we tree-hugging pinkos!):D

    Once again: what are you listening to now?

    I have been listening to a lot of music that combines Indian classical with electronica. My latest favorite is Chebi Sabbah, and Anoushka Shankar is really good too.

    Sunshine on Blu-ray

    I wonder if it was based on Ray Bradbury's short story The Golden Apples of the Sun? The plot looks similar to that, at least.

    Is it officially over?

    Oh. Well, there goes more than half of my motivation for buying one.:( Maybe when they cost the same as ordinary DVD players.

    An upsetting event

    Hopefully, it will turn out to have been something silly like that instead of an actual problem, and won't happen again. My overall impression is of outstanding build quality, and this is confirmed by reviews.
