| un-becoming an audiophile @fbgbill Nice rig. I'm interested in your audio rack. Something you built? How are the pipe end connected to the wood? I don't see any brackets. I'm in need of some new shelving and that system looks very adaptable. | |

| un-becoming an audiophile An good read with my morning coffee. I've always found the use of the word Audiophile to be interesting. To me it means someone who has great knowledge on the technical side of hi-fi equipment. And there are plenty of "Audiophiles" on this site... | |
