    Fusion Fishing

    It is time for me to go on a jazz fusion exploration.

    What Weather Report albums do you guys and girls recommend?

    Does anyone have any favorite Jaco Pastorius albums, and what makes them so?

    I already have a vast library of Miles, so we can skip any of his, for now.

    How about Latin fusion? Anyone have some favorites?

    One of my top ten albums (CD) is Jazz Pana - The Vince Mandoza / Arif Mardin Project. Features Al Di Meola, Michael Brecker, Peter Erskine, Steve Khan, and many others.

    I got this one used nearly 15 years ago, and still must listen to it at least once a month. Anyone else ever heard of this one?

      I have the self titled and debut 'Weather Report'. I got this when I heard the track 'Milky Way'. The piano strings were not sounded by the hammers but by the gentle vibrations of Wayne Shorter's soprano sax. I also have "Forecast: Tomorrow" A triple cd & dvd box set.

          Report back on stereo speaker voicing investigation
          by JonMarsh
          I've contacted a number of you individually, and we've had some brief side discussion in one of the Wavecor Ardent threads, but I thought I should bring this a little further out front in terms of explanation, experimentation and discussion. This is in regard to evaluating system voicing concepts to...

          Fishing for Speakers for Home Theater only
          by coxhaus
          I bought a Krell HTS 5.1 and Showcase 5 amp. It is a great combination. I would highly recommend them. The quality of the sound is spectacular. I have pretty high-end tubes for my 2 channel and the Krell is along the same lines in quality. I am currently using B&W speakers. I tested some 600-series...
