| Old work electrical boxes I installed a dedicated circuit 15 yrs ago with Oyaide R1 outlet, using a remodel box. I’ve had no problem. Then too I don’t unplug my conditioner very much. Just bought a new one and didn’t have any problem plugging it in | |
| Is EquiCore Deep Core a Great Benefit When Used With Core Power 1800? Thanks @lowrider57 . I agree that the 1800 made a noticable difference in my system too. Guess it's time for the deep core. Better let my wife's head quit spinning before I get it though. I've been going through the kids inheritance pretty good fo... | |

| 10" self powered sub-woofers..... FWIW, I have had Rel Subs for over 15 yrs with no reason to move elsewhere. Some talk about its lack of 20 hz bass and its expense. I just know it works for me, a drummer who LOVES a good bass line more than most. I can't say the others are inferi... | |
| Connecting a streamer via an Ethernet cable The reason I ask, is that doing so with my situation would require a fair amount of effort. IIUC, This effort can be drastically reduced with a wifi extender. Cost is $30-60 and plug it in to the AC outlet. Of course make sure it has a Ethernet in... | |
| Sound quality of Newer versus Older speakers @cd318I believe Solomon said it best, "There is Nothing New under the sun". But marketers won’t say that nor will the built in obsolescence allow it. Perhaps the Paradox of life is that "the more that things change, the more they stay the same". | |
| Sound quality of Newer versus Older speakers There was no need for subwoofers with the older speakers, unless they were bookshelf type. Even some of them did a reasonable job. There was a push for "clarity" in the late 70's and onward for mids and highs to be extended. Now, even with floor ... | |

| Raven celeste competitors/alternatives You could try the BlackHawk with your Revel's and see how it works. Then there is a Don Sachs Integrated now with 35 wpc using 6L6 tubes. Don's preamp is always sold within 2 days of arriving on the used mkt. And his amp is great. I have one. The ... | |
| Is EquiCore Deep Core a Great Benefit When Used With Core Power 1800? Thanks for the impressions and the heads up. Guess I'll have to try it. The adjustment ability is quite interesting. Didn't know that | |

| Savoie Turntable by Galibier Design Had to look. Looks like an interesting project. Thanks. While there, I got good info on tape material for belts. Time to make some more. Just ordered a roll of Kapton tape which is preferred by Gabilier | |
| I Pulled the Trigger on the Gaia IIIs. Another Very Positive Tweak! Next Up Schumann! Yeah, I'd love to try them but my speaker are 135 lbs apiece which puts me in the ultra high price thousand$$$ + category. | |

| I must be old @tgrisham I don’t see a cleaning system for the vinyl. That’s necessary as is a Zerostat device for static. Vinyl is NOT convenient. But it will reward you. Fwiw, I just bought a streamer for my future days as I age and don’t feel like the ritual ... |
