| Talk me out of buying Monoblocks and into a stereo amp instead If you get the stereo amp now, you will always wonder how much better the mono's are.... | |
| Mixing XLR and RCA outputs when biamping? I started out with Adcom separates in the 90's. MHO is that Adcom was and is, starter equipment. You can and should go for something better. | |
| David Johansen has passed away I was watching a blues special featuring several veterans when David came out and did a killer cover of Howlin Wolf's "Killing Floor". You might be able to find it on You Tube. Worth your while. | |
| Has anyone tried these SnugPlugs? Go for a better outlet. I noticed a bigger improvement in sound over new a/c power cords. | |
| Mystery with woofers. Help! Remember that jumpers are part of the speaker cable line and get good ones. I replaced standard stamped metal jumpers with cyro treated strand jumpers and it made a big difference. | |
| … "And the government shall be upon his shoulders" Yes, wrong forum for this subject, but to hear this music on an excellent pipe organ and choir is very moving indeed. | |

| Shrink Totem 1's? Here is a solution.....Hollow out 4" of the wall to make room for the speaker. Tim Allen will come to help. | |
| Ugliest Component of the Year 2024! I could never buy an exposed horn speaker like the one lubachi has shown, or Avantegarde no matter how they sound. For a positive comment, those Vitus amplication products from Denmark have me drooling for an upgrade. Just gorgeous. | |
| The rat’s nest of cabling. Large transformers in components. My discovery. All of us with tinnitus don't have to worry about EMI or other noise in our gear. | |
| Help me identify an amp Man, this should be in the HI-FI hall of fame. I would love to hear what it can do after you get it in working order. |
