| Unscrupulous ebay buyers audioguy85, it would behoove to check out eBay's return policy for buyers. Reasons for return include "didn't like it", "changed my mind" and "found a cheaper price" among others. Doesn't matter how many times you say NO RETURNS, they can return ... | |
| Female vocalist recommendations Didn't see Linda Ronstadt or Tori Amos. Linda has the best voice ever, what ever genre she sings. Sadly Parkinsons disease has muted her extraordinary voice. In my view, Tori is nipping at her heels. My two cents. | |
| "Audiophile" Power Cables: The Greatest Audio Conspiracy Theory of All Time? I have yearly hearing tests performed. Been asked more than once if I could hear dog whistles. Before any statement that proclaims "I can definitely hear a difference" must endure a blind hearing test of at least 3 different power cord setups. We... | |
| Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? Wow. Yes, so I actually read the entire article, and again...wow. The responses to this misinformed individual have pretty much already been made, either in his original article or here in this forum. Talk about apples and oranges. The two most in... | |
| Welcome to Hell, here's your 8-Track P.S. Yes 4 tracks came before 8 tracks. | |
| Welcome to Hell, here's your 8-Track Haven't posted in some time, but had to respond to this post. I have to disagree to the bobbergman post. My 4 track was superior in many ways to my Panasonic 8 track player/recorder. Having only 4 bands on a tape the same width as an 8 track, ther... | |
| Is it safe to use a higher amperage rating fuse? I'm confused (get it)? What am I missing?OP stated 250mA fuse (1/4 of 1A)Suggested a 5A (20 times the mfg suggested current and still blows?)Did I miss something or is something really wrong here? I'm not an electrician, but I did stay at a Holida... | |
| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? Thanks MC | |
| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? OK, there's the sarcasm (what a surprise it's your MC) now c'mon how about some righteous indignation... | |
| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? Thank you @kingbr, I was trying to inject a bit of levity into a discussion here, that's the reason I didn't specify an amp or speakers or cable. Thought maybe somebody would share an experience they themselves had or thoughts along the same line ... | |
| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? Dear Doctors in the house, my hearing is quite good actually. Was once asked during a hearing test if I could hear dog whistles. The gist of the question was does a $4K HDMI cable for example justify an improvement in sound over a $1K cable to the... | |
| My best retort to those that think we listen to our stereos more than the music Oddly in agreement. I thought the analogy was spot on. AB | |
| Sellers: When do you drop your price? Bravo. Good for you. What you pay for something has no bearing on it's worth today. eBay has a great free option in left column 'Sold' and 'Completed Listings'. I don't sell much equipment but I do sell alot of vinyl. It's surprising sometimes. So... | |
| Is a Ortofon Black a step down from a Pickering XSV 3000 I balked at first to the Ortofon 2M Black. After purchasing one, and after the 'break in' period I find it mesmerizing. Purchased a second and a third to have on hand just in case. The Shibata stylus in this engine is (in my opinion) the finest MM... | |
| members and their systems Oh, by the way, I still have my Sansui 350 and Pioneer PL-A25 with the top of the line Lafayette speakers. Should I consider trading these in too??? What sounds best to you folks? Thanks again... |
