| You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them? Opinions are like AH's, everybody has got one. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Some room correction might be a better solution. | |
| Bootleg bust I love Neil's music as well. His Youtube concerts tell most of the story. Read his book, you will love it. And understand his wierdo hippy brain a little better. | |
| Stuff You Tried To Love Grado Ref. moving iron cart. Didn't have any liveliness regardless of phonostage settings. Seemed to be in between somewhere, and I finally gave up on it. | |
| Rockport Lyras This is not a thread, it's a frayed knot | |

| Tip for blues lovers @tomcy6, Listened to Harry Manx last nite. Very nice, relaxed. That Indian instrument must be something like a sitar, sounds similar. @ scp. Don't have Tidal, that playlist looks awesome. Internet radio tuner has AArdvark blues out of Hous... | |
| Tip for blues lovers @tomcy6 I am up for Harry Manx, will try tonite. | |
| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? So lets call them standmount speakers instead. Hardly anyone puts them on a bookshelf. | |
| Why do people like reel to reel players? The first time I heard one, I knew it was something special. More space between the notes etc. Yet expensive and impractical. And very small selection of titles. So I passed on it. |
