  1. I've been listening to Eva Cassidy for over 10 years. I have all her cd's. Song bird is a good album, and Simply Eva has a great selection on it. Enjoy
  2. For those like me whom are history buffs, this article was an eye opener.... http://www.threeworldwars.com/world-war-1/ww1.htm Some interesting quotes from some past leaders.

    Oh My Word!

    Looks like Detroit after the departing of the auto industry. Such a shame. Imagine most are not salvageable.
  5. Granite makes super nice racks. I'm in the process of a build and have been taking pics and was going to post the build when I was finished. Priority occurrences have side tracked me for now but will get back to it. The the whole unit is built in 1 3/4" red oak stands about 52" high by almost 6' wide, and 17" deep. Empty weight will be about 450 lbs. It will take a lot to make that thing vibrate!!

  12. Welcome to the site Ralph, and prepare for OCCD to creep in.
  13. Good to see you back A.J. we've missed your presence. Release and reception[edit] The movie became popular after its release, but had a mixed critical reception.[citation needed] The 1960 hit "Theme from A Summer Place" (composed by Max Steiner), was arranged and recorded by Percy Faith and performed by his Orchestra, enriched and improved on a secondary musical theme of the film; it remains a classic of its era, reaching Number One on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for nine consecutive weeks. An early instrumental version of the song was recorded by the group Los Nómadas but only gained "Top 40" recognition in Mexico, despite Zane Ashton's (also known as Bill Aken) distinctly "teen-pop" flavored arrangement. A vocal version, with lyrics by Mack Discant, was a hit for The Lettermen in 1965. Singer Dean Torrence referenced the song's melody in Jan and Dean's "Like a Summer Rain" in 1966. Recently, Kenneth Brager has done an electronic remake of it entitled "Love Won't Leave Me Alone".
  14. Good show Brian. I wonder about the differences between the lasers used on units now in comparisons to the ones when they first came out. I remember a demo done when cd's first came out. A cd was taken and a fine sand paper was run across it to put scratches in it and then played in the cd player and it played flawlessly. Even cd's that had pretty deep scratches in them played without fail. Nowadays, it doesn't take much at all for it to skip, etc. I wonder if the lasers are cheaply made and less stronger than in the good ole days? Opinions?
  15. Welcome to the carve site Bill, pull up a chair, and share your pics. Remember, there is no vacine for OCCD, and it's very contagious (Over compulsive Carver Disorder). We all have it, some worse than otherws
  16. You such a lucky Dog Mark !!!! Your making us all envious OCCD'ers
  17. I'm kinda with Paul, thats like buying a Ferrari and putting regular gas in it to me.... I would look for another amp to run them seperate....
  18. Welcome to the site Wileysad, looks like you have been accustomed to great equipment from the start. Time to knock some dust off your equipment and enjoy some music and trips down memory lane. You will find out what OCCD is and how it affects our members here in the Carversite. We love pics too The M 500 is one of the many admired amps with many of the members, and soon you will find much info on it and the upgrades that have been done with it. the C-1 pre is also a favorite among many members and also has a BillD upgrade that makes the unit a fabulous choice. Enjoy the music..........
  19. Welcome to the site.... Ahhh Yes, I remember the Dynaco Age. Did a PAT 4 and a 400 myself. It was decent gear, but was short lived... There are some great techs here, and some very gifted and generous company here, I'm sure you will enjoy........
  20. This is kinda neat. Some one took the time on this, not only will it show the #1 song on your Birthday but also the #1 song on the day you were conceived LOL http://playback.fm/birthday-song
  21. This is pretty cool!! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3022885/Storm-ash-cloud-Electrifying-shots-Mexican-volcanic-eruption-lightning-bolts-striking-inside-ash-cloud.html
