| No God No! Say it Ain’t So! This is the almighty $$$$$$ at work. Usually, the first move will be to clear house and consolidate positions. Next thing you know, Best Buy will be the place for MC. {maybe] | |
| Phono preamp hum No quiz. It has been back in the box for a couple years. I keep looking at it wondering what's wrong. Thought maybe I could get some help as I am no tube genius. Maybe I will give it away and let it drive someone else crazy. | |
| Phono preamp hum @lewm No it isn't. @Kokomo Nope, I have given up on it. I have another unit that works fine. | |
| 55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey 65" for sure. It might seem big at first, but you'll get used to it in minutes. | |

| Bluesound mode not really cutting it Look at the BelCanto E.stream at about $2000. Small but hefty, outplayed Innuous Pulse at $3800, No DAC. Small difference to CD's. | |
| Magnepan LRS+ resistors on the tweeters… which? I have had Maggies for over 25 years. Lots of tinkering with placement and room interactions. For me, the best way to fix what I call a "hissy top end" was to put a sound absorbing panel directly behind the speaker more toward the top of the spe... | |
| colibrie "Long haired country boy" by Charlie Daniels needs to be played. | |
| Infinity RS 1B - How does the 'old dream speaker' compare to today's speakers? I love line source speakers. Keep in mind you must have a room they will work well with. Expansive sound means a larger room. | |
| Clipping with Separates with change of Power Conditioner[?] @carlsbad2 +1. I get no distortion or haze from high quality wall receptacle. No conditioner in my future. |
