My music tastes vary massively, from Rage against the machine to Rascal Flatts and Garth Brooks, Biffy Clyro and Foo Fighters to Michael Buble and Andrea Bocelli.

 :smiley:

Your almost on my wavelength Jimble apart from Bubble and Bocelli. For me it's indie music with rock thrown in therefore

The Smiths
Stone Roses
The charlatans
Paul weller
RATM
Nirvana
Radiohead
U2
Shed Seven

and many more

If you like Air (as I do) have you got their 'Virgin Suicides' LP from 2000? If you love mellow and a soundtrack vibe its brilliant.

Can pass across if you'd like?

p.s. All this channeled though the Mk7's stereo should sound super. HeHee :smug:

Cheers mate.  I've got "Love 2", "Moon Safari", "Talkie Walkie", and "The Virgin Suicides".  I like a lot of stuff by "Zero 7" as well.

Not really a big fan as such, but like with a lot of artists I'll buy an album even if it's just for one song, find some real gems that way!  A lot of this type of stuff is melodic, and that's what hooks me.  For that reason, I have absolutely loads of synth and instrumental albums by the likes of Jean Michel Jarre, Andy Pickford, Mike Andrews, Jan Hammer, Vangelis, Mike Oldfield, Bekki Williams etc.

Bought quite a lot of music on the basis of this thread from Amazon.  I used to buy through iTunes, but Amazon have such a slick system now and it seems to figure out your music tastes a bit better than iTunes.

Just bought Shakedown 2 by the Freemasons ( http://amzn.to/1ckbCGQ ) - Sounds Amazing in the Scirocco via the Dynaudio.

Anyone actually heard the Dynaudio in the GTI and compared it to Dynaudio on previous generation? I'm expecting a reasonable, but not massive upgrade.
