| User Error Disaster I'll second the Fort Worth Audio suggestion. They'll take care of you. | |
| Built a DIY butcher block and iron pipe rack over the weekend https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/6466 uberwaltz: I see you also have a Monoprice Monolith XL rack. How do you like it? | |
| Built a DIY butcher block and iron pipe rack over the weekend That looks great! Mingles, I like yours as well. I've been looking for some sturdy and open air racks but don't want to break the bank as I am going to need a few to hold all of my audio and video gear.

| VTI audio rack, any good? Has anyone tried the Monoprice Monolith XL racks? They are less expensive but appear to be fairly stout with 1" thick shelves and a 350 pound weight capacity.https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=39165&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIn5Cy8Ib07wIVaiitBh1qp... | |

| Speaker Suggestions for 300b SET Amp You should consider some Klipschorns. Seriously! Yes, they are large, but if you have good corners, they actually don't take up very much space at all -- who actually uses their corners (except for Klipschorn owners)? | |
| Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? The laws of physics can't be broken. If the rationale came in the form of a memo, it came from the marketing department. Fuses do not make a difference. Do you want to believe science or do you want to believe marketing? It's up to you to deci... | |
| Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil Complete snake oil.Spend your money on room treatments -- that is will be where you will actually hear some benefits. | |
| Directionality of wire Without all those arrows on the cables, how are those little tiny electrons going to know which way to go? They'll get lost! If the lottery is a tax on people who are bad at math, then high end cables are a tax on audiophiles who are bad at science. | |
| Best fuses for under $50? Try Radio Shack. Fuses don't impact sound!If the lottery is a tax on people who are bad at math, then high end fuses are a tax on audiophiles who are bad at science. | |
| Need Small Bookshelf Speakers With a Big Sound This is going to sound crazy at first (maybe longer than that), but if you have two good corners in your room, you might want to consider some Klipschorns. Yes, those giant speakers are what I'm suggesting. Now hear me out. If you do have two g... |
