| How long does Class A have? @sgreg I’m a hypocrite and use class A amps, but… are you denying climate change? LOL | |
| How long does Class A have? @perkri I’ll glad take that VFET off your hands if you don’t build it! | |
| How long does Class A have? “The amplifier does not require any maintenance. While the design is conservative, this is a hard running amplifier, as single ended Class A operation is the least efficient operating mode. In fifteen years the electrolytic power supply capacitors... | |
| Do you all agree when Prince said the 60s, 70s and 80s were the golden ages of music? I often come here for advice, but when someone compares Prince to Green Day and calls him “overrated” I realize how absolutely idiotic forums can be. | |
| Technics SP10 MK3 Restoration @chakster Here is an old Japanese TOHO cast iron base for TechnicsOoooh that's quite interesting! Similar to the Micro plinth that was made in super low numbers, in a way? Kinda hardcore, but I respect the vision! | |

| Three cheers for Keith Herron I’m addicted to what the VTPH2A gas brought to my system! Lovely guy in all my communication with him, so nice to hear this story! | |
| Types of speakers to create nightclub style sound? Ignore the Klipsch suggestions. And tbh F1 sucks at midrange. Martin Audio, L Acoustics, D&B Audioteknik, Danley… or just go with JBL. | |

| klipshorn speakers Heard a lot of people’s Klipschorns, in a lot of different rooms, even in 4 corners and even stacked, and been impressed maybe twice. It’s one of those speakers that posers buy for the name and don’t dial them in well. Shouty and piercing more tim... | |
| warmest speaker cables you've heard? Wire is not a tone controlOr perhaps everything is tone control | |
| Dolby Atmos - is it for Audiophiles? Been to all the pro demos, heard in a few environments. It’s just simply not good for music. It’s a theatre effect at best and a gimmick at worst. |
