what to do with music CDs

[Asterix]

What happen to Bach, Batok or Beethofhenn?

Why you forget to mention Rossini
Unlike Verdi who worked till died of old age
Rotund smart alec retired young
However Verdi was revered as a patriot
Old Fart is reviled as opposite

Am I the only one who likes to listen to ABBA, Air Supply, Bee Gees, Sergio Mendes, Bare Naked Ladies, Beatles, Jesus Christ Superstar,..... I own all of these CDs

Back when I was young I didn't have time to listen to the radio. However with internet radio I can listen to all the music from the past. . Some of the songs are not even in english. The nice thing about the radio I am using is that the title of the songs appear & I can google or youtube it

 

[zeebjii]

some of the people I listen to..................


Patricia Barber / Sara K / Jose James / Camouflage / Depeche Mode / The Cure / U2 / Antonio Carlos Jobim / Azure Ray

Art Of Noise / Bird York / Lee Ritenour / Bryan Ferry / China Crisis / Mary Black / The Housemartins / Promised Land

I thought what special and atas music you listen to! what you listen to is same as wendy. Mostly mainstream and some non-mainstream music of common genres.

At least she listens to aretha franklin 'QUEEN OF SOUL'. A royalty!! Beats your boyband depeche mode hands down!

Why do you say that? Classical music is more common than you thought. You can find classical music in films, dramas and commercials. . Next time you watch star wars, pay attention to the music.

And classical music dosn't just mean orchestral music. Even the famous nokia tune is from a classical guitar piece 'gran vals'. You think nokia's people composed that?

I give you one good short youtube example. you listen to this music. I've heard it countless times since young. My point is, you dont need to be classy to appreciate classical music.

Own many CDs including some of the above. With Youtube it's easier to locate the music there no need to go through the CD collection. Especially like to watch the old videos of the old bands.
Hard to believe that many of them are now in their 60's & 70's or dead

sometime i also wonder what to do with old CD/DVD rom taken out from desktop PC

 

[Baimi]

I have a pair of Monitor Audio Gold speakers . Also got them from Adelphi, from the store near the escalator right

I actually got them because I needed rear speakers. Was using them in a 7 speaker setup with my Yamaha A1.

A pair of GOLD Speakers cost over
$2,000, you got to be living in a landed property with this setup.

My Jamo Speakers cost over $3,000+ but that was because I got 5 of them: 2 jamo 11s, 1 centre Jamo speaker & 2 smaller Jamo baby speakers. My Yamaha A1 was able to use 7 speakers for a surround effect.

A private property home does not always mean that it is a large place. You are probably thinking of a bungalow. There are also smaller terraces which are not much bigger than a HDB 5 room unit.

How big is your room? Do you use 1 sub or 2 sub with the 7 speakers?

Regretfully I never got a sub. Was thinking about it but there just wasn't any room for it:(

Already had a single bed, a computer table, a study table, speakers, plus built-in closets. My HiFi equipment was sitting on my study table. Never measured my old room but it was long & narrow.

Nowadays I am more likely to use my internet radio or iPad instead of my HiFi.

Haven't even bought any new CDs or DVDs in years.
