| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? *sigh* This is one among many 'discussions' that will endure beyond our lifetimes for as long as the items made for humans to appreciate any ephemeral event in their own homes are made for the pursuit. Make your own call, buy the thing, and try ... | |
| Why would a moderator remove a cable review? 😏 Mod was wired, strung out, or both.... That, and the 'cable thang' is just getting too esoteric to be rational anymore, imho... To paraphrase LOTR lore, "One wire to bind them...." ;) | |

| What do you do when you inherit some gear that you don’t want. 50% down to ship, balance On delivery. Package within package, expanding foam @ all corners with plastic to keep foam off original carton(s). Air 'pillows' @ the sides, backs.

| Maybe this is the winter you build something! @waytoomuchstuff , yes sir, there are places and things I know enough of Not to get involved with... One can 'crackle-finish' the surface of wood with a microwave transformer. I'll mess with neon (high volts, low amps) but microwave units are th... | |
| Maybe this is the winter you build something! @larsman , *mmm* Choice of 'additions' need consideration....esp. around 'power tools'.... ;) @erik_squires ...hasn't stopped me yet, the ongoing is only possible in that fashion. *G* Running out time to apply self to such is the annoying part, ... | |
| Parity OP, nothing really goes obsolete....it becomes 'vintage', or at least can be claimed to be such. "We're just very selective pack-rats...." *L* | |

| Why does rock concert sound suck? @waytoomuchstuff , Right Arm!...uh, I mean, On....*L* ;) A few years back, Smashing Pumpkins played a local small venue louder than flesh 'n feathers could stand. Inside, you could yell at lungs's top to the person next to you and not be underst... | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? Do pre-'s effect the final product? Yup. That's why I don't have one anymore in-line. Available, yes. Optional, sure. Pre- and post-eq instead? Yup, and happy about it. More noise from the equipment fans than the system itself. Not 'black'... | |
