| Clint Eastwood I love Unforgiven, one of my favorite movies of the modern era. Gran Torino, too. Hard to believe he's a Republican ;-). | |
| Seller has not contacted yet. How long should I wait... A few weeks ago I did a Buy it Now, and the Audiogon system instructed me to wait for an invoice from the seller before making payment. When I didn't hear from him for a few days, I emailed telling him about Audiogons message to me, and asked for ... | |
| Seller has not contacted yet. How long should I wait... Patience, grasshopper. 12 hours not very much time---the seller most likely has a job and family requiring his attention, the auction being a low priority. Nothing to worry about---yet. | |
| Jerry Garcia, A Legacy? Point taken, one and all. Music being so subjective and personal, there really is no point in arguing about it. I should take my own advice! Let me make two more comments, and I’ll shut up: 1- It has been my experience that a fan of Garcia is much... | |
| What did you own in the 60's? AR table w/ Shure M91e pick-up, Cecil Watts Disc Preener, Fisher X100 integrated (tubed, of course), AR 4ax speakers, Koss Pro-AA phones. | |

| Eminent Technology LFT-8b in Harry's system Good point about the LFT-8b maintaining it's resolution at lower level/volume. It's more like an ESL than a magnetic-planar in that regard. That Maggies need to be cranked to a certain level to fully "open up" is widely acknowledged, being somewha... | |
| Eminent Technology LFT-8b in Harry's system aniwolfe, why the ET's aren't as commonly owned or even discussed as are Maggies is a mystery to me. The 1.7i with the essential Mye stands cost more than does the LFT-8b with Sound Anchor stands, and are simply not as good a speaker (okay, imo). ... | |
| Eminent Technology LFT-8b in Harry's system If you’re in the northern Washington state area, there are a pair of LFT-8b available from Planar Speaker Asylum forum member "Davey". His asking price is only $1500, a ridiculous bargain. | |

| Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil Can't get any cheaper than empty paper towel and bathroom tissue cardboard tubes. They're free (you can't buy the paper without the tube)! |
