Symptoms of UN-CLEAN power
@jerryg123   Sorry about that.  Thought it was a liitle dig at me.  We've chatted in the past and you know I don't have a problem with you or your views.  No matter how wrong they may be at times.  🤣  
Symptoms of UN-CLEAN power
@vonhelmholtz  Thanks for that suggestion.  As you can see from my rig, I'm not in the "anti cable" camp.  I just really struggle to understand the value of the high end Power Cable as it defies my common sense.  I'm sure I'm not understanding som... 
Symptoms of UN-CLEAN power
@vonhelmholtz Your answer, or non answer to be more correct is exactly why I have asked the question in the first place.  I believe I articulated the question in readable english.  But what I get back are accusations I'm trying to screw up this th... 
What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey
@grislybutter  My wife might say you're still not wrong in your original statement.  🤣  
What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey
@dman1974  I'm also a big fan of buying used.  If I can enjoy a high end piece of equipment for a year and move it on to a new home for close to what I paid, I'm very happy.  The key has always buying at the right price.  If you ever get a chance ... 
What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey

What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey
@dman1974  I struggle with the amount of equipment you have gone through in a very short period of time.  By my math you have swapped speakers every 3 - months, and amps almost as often.  Thats hardly past the break-in period for a lot of equipmen... 
McIntosh MT5 vs Rega 8 or 10
I own the P8 with Apheta 3 cartridge and am very pleased with it.  My two previous TTs were Music Hall and Thorens.  The P8 is paired with the Parasound JC3+ preamp.  Like most responses you will get, I like what I have.  Can't see any reason you ... 
Worth upgrading my cables?
@rocray With all the fake cables out there (just just over to the Fake Chinese Cable thread with it's 13 pages of comments) I would be very leary of buying on the used market thse days.  Just saying.....  
Worth upgrading my cables?
@designtaylor I own and like Morrow cables.  It looks like you are using their entry level product, MA1.  If you want to invest in better quality interconnects, I suggest you wait for their Black Friday sale when the better cables will be 65% off ...

Last week I bought what must be the worlds worst Thesaurus.  It isn't just terrible, it's terrible.

Streaming – Discovering Similar or New Music
Maybe off topic but I've always looked at who is playing on a disk I like and go in search of their recordings.  Looking to expand as opposed to similar?  It's worked well for me over the years.

How many psychiatrists does it take to change a light bulb?  Only one, but the bulb really has to want to change.
