| Are these fake? I see it on the receptacles but you're right a generic box. Just realized same seller as these Accuphase SC's which also must be fake. Nuff said. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Accuphase-speaker-cable-Spade-Plug-Hi-End-2-5M-8-ft-Pair/222519979063 | |

| Advice/Warnings for a newbie @millercarbon Apologies, it was obnoxious to post all those specs, I just had it all noted in 1 file for quick reference and copy/pasted here. I appreciate the advice. I’m a touring DJ, used to large systems in large rooms for large crowds, so I’m... | |
| Advice/Warnings for a newbie @mrdecibel Unless I pull from my box of random power cords, I do need to purchase 2x for my amps (that idle at 300w), 1 for my pre, and 1 for my turntable PSU. So, I will be buying SOMETHING. Was going to start here (keeping it a one-stop shop): h... | |
| Advice/Warnings for a newbie Thanks for the insights @minorl - yes there are about 10,000 records in my room I'm about to RE-discover! Going to cool it on the buying for a bit.@cd318 - I too love the Nagaoka designs, unlike most people. I may just step 1 or 2 models up in the... | |
