| 750$ Intel NUC vs $6000 Aurender N200: I don't hear the difference I have nothing to add except to say thanks for the thread. I was not aware of the NUC. But it looks quite interesting. Though I’m new to streaming and have finally figured out the program for the streamer I would welcome a switch to an OS that is ... | |
| House Wiring Does Make a Difference! @toddalin Good move. I just have one question. Where did you find outlets that would accept 8 ga wire? Also hospital grade outlets are better. But you might want to try Oyaide R1 outlets. A little expensive but trounced my Hosp grade outlet. I ... | |
| Would you sell for cash? +1 @dill Its hard to believe how conditioned we have become as a society. The govt would love us all to make every transaction w/o cash and instead use traceable pmt like a credit card, or a check. Cash is generally not traceable. Although there... | |

| Merry Christmas to Me.....New tonearm on the way @millercarbon I had meant to call or email you about that. But life happened and then this arm came up for sale and I grabbed it.

If you don' like the word "Rel": in the title, then instead of seeing red and getting you panties in a wad why not look at it this way How does a REL subwoofer add dimensionality and depth to a... | |

| DISCUSSION: "It only comes out at night". Does anyone else have this experience!? @kmckenn I also have a power conditioner but maybe it has less to strain out at night. I don’t know. But There is probably more to it also. IE, even though I am retired I find it hard to get into listening during the day. I feel like I need to be... | |
| DISCUSSION: "It only comes out at night". Does anyone else have this experience!? Its said to be because the power grid is not as congested at night due to closed businesses. Therefore the grid has less pollution. As to cars running better @cd318 , I hadn't thought about that since I was a kid with my 1st car. Indeed that car ... | |
