What devices have you found useful when inspecting your stylii for cleanliness?
I don't wait for it to get dirty to clean it. I just simply cue the styli up and down 4 or 5 times on a piece of Mr. Clean magic eraser after every couple records. It never gets dirty.  
Acoustic Panel Help
@audiodidact  First thing first. What part of the sound are you trying to improve? Clarity, bass, soundstage, depth? That will tell us what direction to go.

Having a Flashback Friday - Airplane Induced
Circa early 70s, Golden Earring in a small club located in a castle along the shores of lake geneva, Switzerland. I'll spare you the psychedelics used that night, but I remember making an eye to eye connection with their lead guitarist for most of... 
More potential bad news for some big names...
Get over it.  
Gustard X30 DAC

Gustard X30 DAC
LOL @sls883  All I know is the X26 has always been the hottest running component in my equipment line-up. Twice as hot as my Parasound Halo A21+. First 6 watts of pure A. 2x500 watts @4 ohms. Let's just say, over time, it's uncomfortably hot. How... 
Gustard X30 DAC

Gustard X30 DAC
I would imagine it's another winner from Gustard. I have been a Gustard guy for years. I have both the X26 and A26. The X26 sounds excellent but can be a tat grainy in the highs so I moved it to a secondary system. The A26 took care of that issue.... 
Yet another Sub Question
It's like boobs, two is best.  
Bose buys McIntosh
Rest easy, the blue/green lights will remain.  
Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say?
Don't lie is always my advice. If asked, tell it like you see it. In the end, it is never helpful to lie in an effort to please someone. It will eventually bite you in the rear end. And the person lied to will live and learn on fake advice.  
An audio component you just can't let go
It should be a lot quieter on TV now.  
Quincy Jones has passed away
RIP.  Condolences to his family, specially the actress Rashida Jones, one of my favorites.  
DarTzeel’s new direction
Never heard of Dartzeel that I can remember. However, kind of interesting since I will be in Geneva next week. He is in Plan les Ouates, just a couple miles away. May pay them a visit if feasible.
