Following @jazzbo's lead & listening to some George Russell:

Disc 1

LP 1

The front cover is cool too. Like he's channeling Lon Chaney.

Fantastic recordings.

On to Volume 2:

Such an INCREDIBLE album.

I've been using the speakers in my stereo system -- Pinnacle PN8's -- since my wife & I got married in 1992. I like the sound of them very much, and I got a great deal on them all those years ago. But my LOVELY wife, knowing how much I enjoy listening to music, recently suggested that I upgrade them. She didn't have to twist my arm. So I dove into the internet, reading as much as I could online. More importantly, I spent a bunch of time listening to different speakers -- both at a friend's place and at a local shop. I heard models by Magnepan, Vandersteen, Wharfedale, KEF, Dynaudio, and Paradigm. The whole "research"/comparison process was good fun, an excellent excuse to hang out with some cool people and listen closely to music. This last weekend, I pulled the trigger and ordered a set of Paradigm Founder 100F speakers: They should arrive in a week or so. To say that I'm stoked is an understatement. I can't wait to hear them.

Now spinning:
