| High quality in-wall UL-C2 rated 10-gauge A/C wiring ? auxinput1. Take two 50 foot lengths of 14awg romex. 2. Take the two black hot leads of both cables and connect them to the same 15A/20A circuit breaker. You'd need to check NEC on this as well as your local code. Also, note that only breakers d... | |
| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire Agreed, @nonoise, the NYT is flawed. Much so. I'm not willing to throw the gray lady out with the bathwater, though, or to proclaim it "the enemy of the people." | |
| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire millercarbon Here you have just one guy, a very well-read but otherwise ordinary audiophile, and he is able without any "reporting" whatsoever off the top of his head able to inform you better than the NYT.

| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire millercarbonLOL! And it only took the New York Times ELEVEN YEARS to report on it!"The paper of record", indeed!Cheap shot.

| I've never believed much in cables, that said... (USB) It’s always nice to read a report such as this from a self-acknowledged cable skeptic. That’s why I dismiss the arguments by those skeptics who simply refuse to listen or experiment. | |
| Rumors of iTunes Demise n80 I think some people are confusing iTunes with Apple Music. Yes, I think that's behind the misunderstanding here. It's a common error. | |
| Jelco Easy VTA on the Fly stringreen The tracking force is decreased when the rear of the arm is raised. Hmmm, I’m not sure how your arm could have circumvented the physics and geometry that apply to other arms. Does your pickup arm rely on some unusual dynamic VTF mecha... | |
