| The Music Room is Hiring - Audio Repair Tech Wanted I don't see any problem with it. I've never seen The Music Room trying to use the forums to promote sales (unlike some other very annoying vendors) and there are a lot of pretty technical people on these forums. This might be someone's dream gig. | |
| Audio Research VT100 MK1 and LS15 HELP!!! Not to insult your intelligence, but are you sure your speakers are connected correctly? Looking at those speakers, they have internal jumpers and you need to turn the screws to connect the jumpers if you don't have the speakers bi-wired. | |
| bluesound node 2i with chord quest There are a lot of variables to consider regarding wifi and whether that will be good enough for your system. First, what kind of download speeds do you have? Are you using the built in wifi in the router supplied by your internet provider, or d... | |
