| Dog Day cuts like a knife
Make no mistake, Dog Day is a power trio. They're a polished power trio that has a sound that rips through the speakers like a fireball. Adding an edge to cover tunes sharp enough to cut glass. Their originals are songs that are kept simple enough for everyone to get the first time around, bound tightly by strands of raw energy.Dog Day holds to the traditional power trio made popular in the 1960s. A true power trio has one lead guitar, one bass and one drummer. One of the first power trios was Buddy Holly and The Crickets, staying true to the basic formula of guitar, bass and drums. The power trio was exemplified by The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream. These groups laid the foundation for future power trios such as James Gang, Grand Funk Railroad, Motorhead, Green Day, King's X and Nirvana.
GINI iTube
The good: The GINI iTube has excellent sound quality; adds warmth to compressed files; can be used with non-iPods. The bad: The GINI iTube is bulky and to some eyes, ugly; must add iConec (or equivalent) dock accessory for ultimate iPod integration. The bottom line: The vacuum tube-equipped GINI iTube speaker system may not not be beautiful nor is it a household name, but its sounds great. Reviewed by: James Kim Review date: 8/23/06 .
