| Dedicated AC line - Contractor wants to use BX instead of romex @todd1010I see a lot of references to using 10/2 but for some reason I used 10/3 wire. What the differences?Did I chose wrong? No. You just bought one extra strand of wire that you don't need. That wire can be tied off and not used. Unless you ... | |
| Preamp/interconnects cause amp problems? Just because the dealer could not find anything does not mean there is no problem. case in point, I bought a used preamp which had been at the mfg's service center for an issue which was supposedly fixed. The seller had it shipped directly to me. ... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Last night:Sass Jordan - RatsI forgot how much I enjoy Sass Jordan. This is my idea of "female vocals". The intensity and emotion in the song "Pissin’ Down" is palpable. "High Road Easy" is a song that makes me move. being a drummer, its usually m... | |
| Amazon Turntable Owners: Where Do You Source Replacement Battery Packs BTW, Sorasound used to sell Amazon TT’s. He may be a good reference for info and maybe a manual, assuming you do not have one. Good luckAn addendum: I too am having some issues with getting up to steady speed. Takes too long. But I have had this... | |
| Amazon Turntable Owners: Where Do You Source Replacement Battery Packs I have a Teres tt which has a SLA battery. It uses a 12v 12ah battery. You need to get the right voltage and size. I would look up a source for a manual for the Amazon TT you have. If you have a charger and speed control unit like mine, the use of... | |
| When did you most enjoy the music? I still don’t pay attention to the equipment unless I am evaluating something. But I think you hit the mark with this:Maybe it’s something that can’t be recaptured, as it is with a lot of things of youth. Maybe it’s as simple as " Ignorance is bli... | |
| Lithuanian Tube Gear?! That's a good question @stringreen . The first one I thought of also. Decent looking gear but too much risk | |
| Is $2,844 too much to pay for a fuse? Waste of $$$ without this:https://imgflip.com/i/57t7uc | |
| HELP. THE REVERB ON MY FENDER AMP ISNT WORKING This is an audiophile forum which is dedicated to hifi equipment & music. Though there may be some guitarists here, you will have a much better chance of a good answer on a page dedicated to pro equipment. They would understand the workings of... | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? @ dletch2 Because people like to hear themselves talk, they do it about things they don't have any real knowledge of, 93 posts in this thread and you, have 18 of them or nearly 20%. That's about the most accurate thing I've heard you say. Psyc... | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? I expect the people you have backed into a corner were as uneducated in the topic as you were. Oh I'm sure they were nowhere near as smart as you are dletch2. They were just mere mortals but they too were much smarter than me, just like you. LOL | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? @thynameDitto Seems as though they want to force their thinking & ways on me. I could care less if they want to use electric fence or dynamite wire in their system. If they hear no difference, fine with me. Just don't try to force me to use e... | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? @ dletch2, jdane, djones, jjassmith and all the other Scientismists on board. You boys are good at casting aspersions on those of us who do not agree with your religion of Scientism. But do you have any REAL science to back up your assertions? You... | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? @orgillian192 A test of systems (or components in a system not my own) playing it to me would still be useless as my reference is my own system and without a direct comparison to that, I would have virtually no frame of reference to opine on what... | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? @douglas_schroeder I agree with your perspective. The reason I post this is because we have a lot of new people who have been putting forth this scientismist POV. There are also new people here who really want the proper info. They don't know.
