Classical Music Is Alive and Well on Audio Aficionado!
Obviously, not everyone here is a fan of classical music - but there are a lot of us that are.
The three most popular threads in AA are all located in the Music Forum and it is my great pleasure to announce . . . . That the third most popular thread - by number of posts - in all of Audio Aficionado is . . . . http://www.audioaficionado.org/class...night-176.html With now over  Please drop by, take a look, and share with us, some of that classical music that you sneak around playing. The Classical Music thread is a place to share and to learn. Most of the posts include information about the music being played and often include recommendatios about various recordings, composers and artists. Try Classical Music - It sounds superb on your wonderful music systems Julian
