I'm impressed... nice forum! But I feel very ignorant and really wouldn't know what to add, except that I realize the naivety of my post. The problem is that everything changes so quickly now; one year we listen to music this way, the next year that way, and who knows how the year after that. In the meantime, I'll look into this t-amp, hoping that by the time I figure out how the hell it works, there won't be something new already. :)

I consider this the "de-recommendation of the month." Thank you, Odra.

I think like Trelly, and I'm as nostalgic as Lewis. I already had a hard time moving from vinyl to CD... but people, tell me, how can you judge an album by its SOUND when it's downloaded from the web? I mean, my doubt is this... I never download from the web (I receive some CDs as promos - like this one - others are copied for me by friends from an original, or if I can afford it, I buy them) because I have this fixed idea that the sound is not the same, that it is even "colder" than a CD (which is already indisputably colder than vinyl). Someone my age really struggles with this: don’t you all HEAR a difference? I've listened to some downloaded albums, but honestly, I hear a difference! Do you think it's just an impression due to my congenital dislike for cold music files, or is it really like that? Or... another question: is it fair that certain bands (like Mogwai for example) work so hard to create a KICKASS SOUND, only to have it compressed and packed into a tiny file, shoved into a little box that looks like a small coffin, and filtered through tiny earbuds shoved into our little ears, ending up in the tiny space of our heads? I thought this already with Walkmans because I've always believed that "sound" deserves huge eardrums, amps with serious power, and REAL SPACE (= air, like a classic bedroom)... an era is truly ending. Forget about "rock is dead"! Instead, sound is dying! It's becoming extinct... sigh.

essential and telegraphic, but very exhaustive, conveying a warm and friendly atmosphere. It must have been a really nice evening. (in my opinion, they have good stuff in Canada, indeed ©S.C.)
