| HMMM. +1 carlsbad Only yesterday my neighbor came over to ask me to look at an outdoor light needed repair. It was wired into a sensor, and she figured that it couldn't be that hard just to replace the whole unit. Good thought, but not for everyone... | |
| Fixing Wall Shudder I had a related noise issue with an exterior wall. My fix was to put on another layer of sheetrock vertically on top of the existing one. I used a green substance used just for this application. I forget the name of it. it helped a lot with the a... | |
| Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital? jjss49, First off, I appreciate the way that you respectfully raise this question, so thanks. I must explain myself better here. Since a long time ago, I have observed how we pay for more and more in services that were not supported b... | |
| Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital? We always had to pay for telephone, but it was cheap. Then we started paying for TV. It was kinda cheap but limited. Years later, we started paying for radio. Also cheap for awhile. Now they want us to make a monthly payment for music. In my mind,... | |
| Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital? My feeling is that you can always go digital in other audio in your life, but vinyl is what you have set up your system for. regardless of sound quality either way, the physical aspect of vinyl has been part of the catch for me. Same with coffee. ... | |
| 5 Dumb Things Audiophiles Believes. Don't if it turns out to be a waste of time in the first minute or so. I am at the ready with the pause button with a lot of this stuff. I must admit though, I will listen just see how far someone will go. | |
| 5 Dumb Things Audiophiles Believes. Uh oh. Now I have to question myself as to why I get a lot of what is being in that video. Surprisingly, it was done much better than so many garage level videos that I almost immediately click off. But in the end, I also listen to my stereo an... | |
| different people may hear the same sound differently... Recently, I have had to accept my new different. It is my hearing, and so far, I can make a certain amount of adjustment. Too bad though for anyone else listening to my system. But even before all of this, when a certain level of quality was ... | |
| Why and how grounding is needed for Inverters @jea48 is one of the very few here that I trust with information about AC electrical. I have seen responses from others in other threads that seem to have authority until pressed for actual facts. I am glad that we have few people here who underst... | |
| Where did you buy your first audio gear? Remembering my first 'decent stereo', it was bought at a place in Montana called, 'LaBelles'. We really thought we had something there, and probably it was as good as anything in most places. Picked up a set of Wald speakers and a Marantz 1060 int... | |
| different people may hear the same sound differently... Wasn't trying to derail the thread, just being honest about how my ear/brain works. It has been sort of fascinating for me to know what it is like for 'normal' people. | |
| Maybe this is the winter you build something! I have not yet, built a plinth for a TT, though it is enticing. Would need an accurate template, and since I lack a CNC machine, a router would likely be doing a lot of the work, at least down to an inch deep. | |
| Demagnetize CDs When I was a kid, I used to say, "Everything is something else." | |
| GIK alternatives This is kind of related 'on the side'. Maybe someone can help out with this. I read not too long ago, in an issue of Stereophile, that there was an abandoned nuclear site in Washington state. Stay with me, this is a little weird but related. The s... | |
