Hey Mark ... it could be worse, you could have your room without any of these nice speakers. That would really suck!
A little John Fogerty earlier, 'Blue Moon Swamp' and now it's Los Lobos 'The Town And The City' (I really like this CD).
I did pick up John Fogerty's new CD 'Revival' the other day and really like it, I'd recommend it for sure.

Keb is absolutely awesome! The only thing I don't really like about his recordings though is that the vocals and all the instruments are coming out of the centre. I would have appreciated a soundstage to his recordings.

He's slowly turnin' into one of my favorites! I accidently found out that his main web-site has his tunes running all the time. It's really fun! TajBlues.com. I can listen on MS-1 or HD600 but not the MS2i cause I don't have an adapter. It's still fun though! I just plugged back in. I'll probably be here a while.

Run to Rat Shack and pick up an adapter, it sounds great on my 325i.

I would have appreciated a soundstage to his recordings. I haven't had a chance to listen to him on speakers, but on phones there's reasonable soundstage, a little tight; but not too bad.....I think. I'll have to take another listen..... ....Ok; I just took off the MS-1 plugged into the computer and put the MS2i back on which is plugged into the CD player and turned Keb' back on since he's still in the machine and...*whew*...yeah, some of his numbers are tighter than others. But still fun too! It's cool here. The kids are in bed and the wife has put on her phones while watchin' TV and the house is quiet except for the fish tank. Phones can be a viable alternative for sure!

I almost did that a few weeks ago when we drove past one. The main reason I didn't was cause although my soundcard doesn't sound too bad, it's just not quite as good as the CD player amped, so I don't normally listen to the computer except when SQ isn't all that important. Of course if I find many more good websites, I may be in the market for a good DAC after all, and that could change lots of things!
