| The Music at AXPONA 2022 ...and most of the above is why, when at audio extravaganzas' in my past, I wore a pair of ear protection muffs. One can only withstand so much before resorting to the bar for general anesthesia... ;) Removed when something 'moved me' to remove ... | |
| New Analog Technology??? ....personally, I've tired of holding my breath over new audio SOTA. When it rears its' appearance at somewhere I can go hear it without a major trek to do so....*shrug* If it wasn't at AXPONA....seems 'hipster hype' is a good guess... ;) | |
| The Visual History of Hi-Fi Turntables ...seems there's more than one version of the posters themselves; the Tumbler post includes a SL-10, a Rabco (a SL8 arm or the entire ST5 TT...hard to tell...) and perhaps a Garrard Z-100, whereas the eBay version was a '#4' with a different colle... | |
| Inexpensive Good Vintage Turntables? ...or budget.... ;) | |
| Inexpensive Good Vintage Turntables? Reacting to the ’vintage’ post, there are more older tables that performed well; not SOTA for their era, but may have gotten matched with a ’so-so’ arm and cart. I’ve an older Marantz table that I intend to mate with a tangential arm, cart subjec... | |
| Do you build anything for your high fidelity system? If so, what do you make? @terry9 Would be interested in your tonearm design, have a turntable that could use one...as well as a deck for the table itself. Since I work with locust (robinia), I've lots of 'drop' planks as thick as one could care to apply.... Hard and de... | |

| Sir Patrick goes with McIntosh Ms. Ryan has aged well....better than the bulk of us, I'll assume. But it's handy having a trainer and dietary advice, no doubt.... BTW, what does this have to do w/audio? 😏 ...other than the young lady's singing, of course...;) (Yeah, I'm sur... | |
| OCD audio guy naming shady Audiogon dealers by name After all these ’glowing’ reviews (as in the ’glow’ of nuclear materials), I’m concerned I’d catch something unRx’able and fatal viewing the vid.... As for ’needs a haircut’ is why I don’t post a pic...and why I trim the beard when I tire of the ... | |
| How do you arrange the order of your records? Good. Now, 5X faster. | |
| How do you arrange the order of your records? Spouse and self don't separate on the same sort of 'sort system' setup, so a significant selection seems to dissemble into selecting something that seizes some semblance of sense..... | |
| Why should audiophile deniers be allowed on an audiophile forum? It's time for the Klingon Opera 7:34! Suffer through this, and understand why 'the Real World' doesn't strike me as being any less disjointed (pun, yes, intended) that this episode of 'taking your brain out to play...' ;) May not have left me no... | |
| Why should audiophile deniers be allowed on an audiophile forum? @mahgister +1K "...the complete myopia of most americans about their politics..their blind spot so to speak..." ...not to mention the plethora of other subjects we slept through the ragged excuse of mass education that we've been extruded throu... | |
| Why should audiophile deniers be allowed on an audiophile forum? *sigh* Always disappointing how 'religious holidays' seem to bring out the 'drunk Unk' to the table, bitchin' about how the beans give you gas while he's fouled his Depends.... Why there seems to be a tendency to couple ones' audio prefs to polit... | |
| When You Buy The Whole Album And Only Like One Song. I appreciate our 'new era' of streaming, streamcasting, Spotify, et all... No more buying an album, tape, or CD to find the 1~3 cuts that caught my ears were the only ones of interest. Since FM has mostly become pointless, what with the rotation... |
