| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits @roxy54 Counterfeit Chinese Cables. Gone..... but not forgotten. I'm thinking we should start another thread by the same name, but this time the subject will be "are the people making the cables actually Chinese, or Counterfeit Chinese" Should ... | |
| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits @ronkent And therein lies the $64,000 Dollar Question. It's become a big crap-shoot when buying any used cables these days. The short answer would be just don't. Otherwise Let common sense prevail. Insist on the original invoice for the manuf... | |
| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits @ronkent Before we start yet another thread on this topic, check out this thread that is up to 19 pages of comments and still going. Everything that can be said, has been said. Cheers. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/counterfeit-chines... | |
| A GOOD dry record cleaning device @jasonbourne71 Sounds like the roller I used to get lint on my suit. Put it under the tap and the lint washed right off. https://www.amazon.ca/bluederst-Reusable-Washable-Cleaning-Remover/dp/B07WWFNBBW | |
| A GOOD dry record cleaning device I don't believe you should ever touch the surface of an LP with anything. I use an ultrasonic cleaner to get everything out of the grooves. Why would you ever use a brush or cloth that could push stuff back into the grooves? Defies logic IMHO. | |
| I don't get it...Exile on main Street-Blue Musicians rating LPs is very much like film critics rating movies? They often relate to things on a different level than the general public. Just go to Rotten Tomatoes and see how often the "Critics" will rate a film 90 - 100 and the general pub... | |
| Classical "Gems" If you can find the 250th Anniversary Beethoven box set, about 120 CDs, for a decent price, I highly recommend it. I was lucky to buy it new for $450. | |
| In-wall cable Any reason you are looking at stranded wire instead of solid copper? I believe Romex 10/2 (2 wire + ground) is the standard choice in this situation? Will handle up to 20 amps. | |
| Turntable prices. Is my mind going? @ptss Happy Easter | |
| Kind of Blue I'm surprised how few mentions of Joe Henderson there are. He's always been a favourite of mine. State Of The Tenor is a must have for any jazz fan. And the subtle treatment he adds to Idle Moments by Grant Green. | |
| eBay @thedoc2004 List on AudioMart where it is free. I have sold every item I have ever listed on that site. Why pay any fees when there is a site dedicated to Audio equipment. Ebay may give you exposure, but AudioMart gives you exposure to the r... | |
| Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review There are lots of people out there that do not have the in depth knowledge of an "audiophile". Is it possible you are not the target market for this review, and most others? The type of review you are looking for might be over the head of the ... | |
| Kind of Blue +1 for In A Silent Way. | |
| Movie Soundtracks @curiousjim Just looked at 3 copies for sale 5 min ago. All Barbarian. Cheers. | |
| Movie Soundtracks @curiousjim Just go to Discogs. No shortage of available options. |
