| Decided to try a SPU cartridge boothroyd Preferably a tonearm with an overhang adjustment such as SME’s Horizontal Tracking Adjustment base The SME base allows for adjusting overhang, not HTA. Overhang and HTA are two different things. | |
| Ridiculous resale price of vintage equiment If you want to accurately assess a market, you have to look at actual sale prices. Taken alone, asking prices mean nothing. An item's market value is the price agreed upon by a willing seller and a willing buyer. | |
| Improving Comcast modem signal fuzztone Sure you can buy your own. Every person I know of that has done that has reverted. When the signal fails (too often) they always blame you and want to bill you for a visit ... That has not been my experience. I’ve used Net... | |

| Luxman M-900U in bridged mono or McIntosh MC1.25kw with B&W 800 D3 Bridging an amplifier increases power into the one channel but it also increases distortion and reduces the ability to drive low impedance loads. I don't think it's ever the preferred solution. | |
