| joy killing refridgerator I just went through the same thing. Researched as much as possible --bought a model that was touted as "quiet." NOT. I also have to turn off the pilot light in my gas fireplace because of the hiss. And then there's always the incessant scream of l... | |
| Pat Metheny Fans, Great Suggestions Please ?? Certainly a lot to like from Metheny/Mays.

| Review: Magnepan MMG Speaker I have owned my MMGs for a bit over a year now. I remember being frustrated, disappointed, and frankly somewhat confused by them for the first two or three weeks. The sound is, to me anyway, so radically different from what we are accustomed to he... | |
| Physical explanation of amp's break in? Sean is absolutely correct--all of the phenomena he mentioned do in fact occur. While electronics changes are perhaps more subtle and gradual than changes in speakers, they happen and are audible for one who has the ears to hear it. His reference ... | |
