I don't want to get political but I want to get my theory out there. Sitting here in Philly on a hot July day it came to me that the root cause of global warming is audiophiles who listen with tube amps.

Sofar Sounds is a worldwide movement of house concerts. They may be in your town! They hold monthly concerts in living rooms and other spaces (galleries, stores, studios) and feature a number of bands doing short sets mostly unplugged. Local talent predominates but bands passing through often...
Does anyone know if there is a way to direct files from an external hard drive to a specific drive on the Aurender? If you simply hook a drive up it will copy to drive One. Is there a way to have it copy to the other drive? I'm guessing that moving it later would take large amounts of time.

This band of two twenty somethings is unique and special. I place them among that very small group of bands/artists who are not well known but deserve to be. They write, they are wonderful musicians and they sing like angels. They won't be on American Idol, their music to too complex. They...

In addition to the medical issues mentioned here I was amazed by the attendance numbers of these festivals. What kind of music are these kids going to listen to down the road? Will there be...
