Audiophiles petition for more Blue Note releases

Yes, the MusicMatters Blue Note releases have been so good I subscribed and am prepared for the end since Ron and co warned us that this last series was it. However, there's a groundswell of support for more...not sure that the numbers make sense but hey, here's a petition we can get behind. Check it out:

Amp joys and SXSW woes

Having an excellent time with the Valvet monos in the system, this review will not be too difficult to write. Hoping to secure a pair of PS Audio's BHK monos to try soon too but that rests on the good auspices of the team at PSA - our little 'Zine is rarely the beneficiary of such expensive gear....here's hoping.  Mono amps just seem so much better to my ears. But hey, if some manufacturer of fine amps wishes to challenge that by submitting their product for comparison, let me know. Who knew amps could sound so different....not those who think it's purely a matter of engineering to the numbers, that's for sure. Meanwhile, let the Valvet fun continue.

It's SXSW season here in Austin. For those of us who live in this fine city, the inundation by hordes who take over the roads, the restaurants and the music scene in search of a good time are, shall we say, starting to wear thin - and it's not officially kicked off yet. Anyone seen a 'F*#! off SXSW' sticker? It's only a matter of time.
