| Indentical measurments = Identical performance? Is it already time to beat this dead horse once again? | |
| Placement of Components @roxy54 Thank you for explaining in a much clearer fashion the points I was trying to make. We often get hung up on audio rules that are little more than rumors. The fun part of this hobby is assembling a sound system that is pleasing to our per... | |
| Placement of Components The trouble with getting your question answered is that people will respond to it based on their experience with their equipment in their rooms and not on yours. There are no absolutes and your situation will be unique to your situation. Some spea... | |
| Looking for good recordings of female vocals I have not yet tried... If you enjoy Billy Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, and Ella Fitzgerald I recommend Cecile McLorin Salvant. | |

| Have you ever solved a high end audio issue using non-audio technology? Or, visa versa? We had an audio buddy, whom we haven’t heard from for a while, who put springs under just about everything. They made the presentation more lively, I guess. Where are you, MC? | |
| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) I'm not sure exactly when that article was written and I'm not so sure it even matters. Not only does today's music suck, but today sucks. And yes, I've finally morphed into my father. |
