| Aliexpress Marketplace practices, be for warned. I too had a negative experience with aliexpress, I ordered a couple memory cards and a usd card adaptor, all mid line brand name items. Both cards were fakes, labeled as 256 gb but only 8 gb capacity. The card reader was partially defective, the m... | |
| The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD Interesting view points! I personally like Cd's, a lot. They are more convenient to use than records and easier to store. I have the ability to create my own Cd's or DVD's to preserve whatever I want. Cd's work well in the car, providing far bette... | |
| What is your "holy grail song" that you cannot find? There are so many? As a Canadian I have access to many bands that are known in Canada and enjoy regular radio play here, but if they don’t crack the USA top 40 list they can’t be found on any of the streaming services, forget about finding a recor... | |
| Quick question for the Cables Don't Make a Difference Crowd. That's an excellent suggestion, to bad the millions of others who thought of it didn't do it? Perhaps it was because something still had to be plugged in which would require a special very expensive power cord to connect to standard inferior house... | |
| Audiogon seller's question There has to be a better way to run a simple sale with a little protection? I lost a purchase early this year due to the a-gon silly no contact rules, the deal was made, everything was good to go but there was no way to contact the seller to arran... | |
| Thanks to the Moderators It's a thankless but necessary job, I served on another site for several years. You can't please everyone, you can only do your best to cater to the majority. To the Mods; thank you for the time you spend on here and keep up the good work. | |
| New speakers for a new start? I too like Vandersteen's or better yet Dahlquist 10's or 20's. | |
| Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics? If you believe that hi end cables make a difference then it stands to reason that the mediocre sound produced by mediocre equipment will be transferred to you much more efficiently allowing you to experience the mediocre sound so much more thoroug... | |
| Do different speaker stands can really make a big sound improvement? Of course they make a difference, cables make a difference, weather, humidity, everything matters. You can spend enormous amounts of money building the perfect listening room with all the perfect gear and accessories then you walk in the room and ... | |
| Deals Gone Bad I will not buy sight unseen as I have no idea what I’m getting and there are many scammers out there. I will not buy anything that has to be shipped as I have not yet found a reliable shipper, none of them care and none of them are careful. I do t... | |
| I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do? Some people will only buy new cars, then they are afraid to use them or move for fear of getting a mark or ding on their new vehicle. Others prefer to buy their vehicles used and pre marked for a substantial savings and they immediately enjoy thei... | |
| If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it? Great topic, it definitely needs some thought, something that I refrain from doing whenever possible. To say what is real or not real is the question? Over the years music has changed constantly thanks to different materials, different production ... | |
| So, a reviewer just said something I need to talk about. I think reviewers often zero in on individual instruments instead of the entire piece? When an artist(s) puts together I good track the finished product far exceeds the sum of its parts. I have on occasion listened for certain instruments or passa... | |
| Why even bother? I have had similar experiences, sellers simply don't want to do anything other than place an ad expecting gear to simply go away by itself? I have had people not wanting to answer questions, insisting on pick up only, refusing to pack stuff, insis... | |
| Next step into Digital Streaming Thanks for the suggestions and recommendations, they are all appreciated. I have had my computer set up as a network server for several years already but it is inconvenient as I have to run downstairs and start it up or leave it running all the ti... |
