Pet Stories
Wow. Lucky 'skippie' didn't electrocute himself. I understand those are very good calbes and it speaks well of HSL to repair them for you. We've had coyotes chasing neighbours' cats. One of the neighbours went out her door to hang clothes last sum...

Thanks to all of you for these great stories. I enjoyed each and every one. We've got some budding writers here...cheers, Bluenose 
Top Ten Tweaks
In a more serious vein. I do believe Ezmeraldah's suggestion of separating the wires and cords is right on. As Dekay correctly pointed out, some tweaks work so well they become necessary. I found this with the cords and wires after I had tweaked e...

Lyle's "Live In Texas" is smoking. I have his first 3 releases on vinyl, the rest on cd. "If I Had a Boat" is still one of my favourite songs....I have a group of friends at Peak Audio in Halifax, NS, who try to hunt out new artists, one of their ... 
Best vibration tweaks
Yes, vibrapods do work But first try lifting all wires, cords, power supplies and conditoners off the floor. Stryafoam is ideal for this. This is cheap and works. Use bubble wrap to isolate wires from power cords....then you can start tuning in er... 
Music that You Have JUST BOUGHT, and can
Opps! Happy Canada Day.....I didn't check me spelling. Bluenose 
Music that You Have JUST BOUGHT, and can

Best tweak
My monster and panamax conditioners used to sit directly on the livingroom floor. I lifted them one day and placed a combination of thick styrafoam and bricks under them and was simply amazed at the improvement I heard. It was on the level of an e... 
Are Sony SACD Machine Owners Crazy??
Hifiho, just a follow-up. I believe I read somewhere that Sony and I think it was Tascam are working on a recordable SACD. For all of us analogue buffs out there does this mean that some day our rare, precious copies of vinyl can be archived on SA... 
Trivia: 1st Lennon-McCartney song in US?
In the same vein, what was the first release in Canada? I'm guessing "From Me To You"...anyone have any idea? Cheers, Bluenose 
Fired up the TT for the first time
Isn't it a wonderful heady feeling, David? The vinyl fix will have you hunting out garage sales and used vinyl shops gleefully hauling away those precious records to clean and play......You're in for a lot of enjoyment. Good for you! Cheers, Bluenose

Newform Speakers...your experience?
Hello, Whatjd. I've owned Newform Research r-8-2's since sept93. I prefered them to martin logans of that age in the showroom. I didn't have the MartinL's in my livingroom. The Newform are easy to drive, the ribbons do take awhile to break-in but ...
