| What were the radio stations of your youth that helped you on your music/audio journey? KOMA Oklahoma City. It drifted in and out as I listened from a cow town in Wyoming. An old RCA Victor radio in my basement bedroom got me by. On Friday nights was a show called rappin. The usual dope head would call in to offer his opinion about l... | |
| How Do You Learn? I was fortunate to have a patient man train me for a bit during my first few weeks at Mountain Bell. He was an old bugger named Bud Wheeler. A bit of an old hillbilly, 'cept when you got to know him. One day I came into the crew room to show Bud ... | |
| Yet Another Post About Power Conditioners! Since what you are asking about is the experience that we posters have with the list given, I will offer this. I liked the idea of the Tripp-Lite products, but in practice did not appreciate the build quality of their newer units. I did not feel t... | |
| Can overseas shipping be less using the Audiogon system or is there a better way? 'Lost' has been happening more frequently in the states lately. Overseas feels like outer space to me. Yah, yah, Houston, we have a problem. Anyway, I am beginning to doubt that as an individual, I can accomplish much in the way of getting a bette... | |
| Why the difference in resale value? If I were in the market for such a product, and the price seemed high, then I would want to know if the product had been reconditioned, restored, upgraded or whatever. | |
| Is bass the most important frequency band? bayliner, I have not considered that one frequency or even a set of frequencies are more harmful than others. A new thought to me, but I would be curious as to where your source for this information comes from. I would like to read about it more. | |
| Is bass the most important frequency band? What a balance we must achieve to please ourselves. And on top of that, mood matters, damned age matters now, then there is the environment for listening. Assuming that all goes well I can't top the experience. But it is just about anywhere in t... | |
| Acoustic treatment for windows and a piano My father used to tune pianos on weekends, and he showed me a little about them. First depending on the note, the deepest notes of a piano are one big string tightly wrapped around another large string. As you go up the scale, it becomes just on... | |
| Build-up on stylus - any new cures? I am really leery of using a product such as Blu-Tak that is not even designed for such a purpose. It IS designed to stick, and when removed from glass, there is a tell tale mark left behind. That would be residue. | |
| tube or solid state phono amp with a tube integrated amplifier? I have tried both with my setup, but the results are not 100% that they would be the same for you. In fact, it has more to do with the quality or matching of the phono pre to your equipment. Without telling what car you drive, what are the bet... | |
| My stereo is haunted!! OP, I have read your post several times hoping that there was a combination missed somewhere. You KNOW that it is not your speakers because you swapped out speakers to a different set. NOT power line issues because it only happens in the righ... | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread I got an idea. Put two fuses in Parallel, with the arrows in each direction! Then let the electrons themselves decide. Plus, double your profits. Wow, like every other electron would pick the opposite fuse, man. | |
| How long does Class A have? I still prefer Edison bulbs to any other design to date. The Failure Rate is quite simply lower. I prefer bolt action to semi-automatic. I prefer standard transmissions in my vehicles to anything else. There is a list of products made that I pre... | |
| Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool? Geek Squad is a pretty good choice, if you only have use them once. In this case it appears that the OP is going take time when the TV is down to do some rewiring and that sounds like it will be a couple of hours. More than likely, the Squad won't... | |
| Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool? Unfortunately, I occasionally find myself in a similar situation. If you do have the opportunity to get help, make dam sure they don't become a liability in the process! A lot of people have no idea how work together with another person and there... |
