| Worth purchasing infinity irs III without the emit towers? noobie1 OPNot sure what I’d do with them. But I mean dirt cheap $600That's a good deal if the drivers are in good condition. The control woofers alone are worth about that. The servo unit, if it's included, also has value. | |
| How much should a person spend to get a decent power conditioner? helomechPeople invest thousands in conditioners and power cables because of their audiophile nervosa/insecurities and placebo effect. What an odd claim. Use of power conditioners aren’t confined to audiophiles, but are also in wide commercial use... | |
| How much should a person spend to get a decent power conditioner? helomech If you have audible buzzing, hiss or hum, try using a "cheater plug" for your amp and preamp cables. It's fine to use cheater plugs for diagnostic purposes - they can be very helpful for that. But it's not safe to use them as a "soluti... | |

| Interconnects and non-believers ganainm Cleeds: "That doesn't mean that everything we've heard is illusion."Couldn't pass this up! Maybe it is!You're certainly free to believe that unless you are blindfolded everything you hear, see and feel is an illusion. I think that's a ... | |
| Interconnects and non-believers jssmith I always ignore subjective views and my viewpoint is "if you didn't hear it blind, you didn't hear it." That's absurd. Most of us hear things all of time, yet we're not living our lives blinded. That doesn't mean that everything we've ... | |

| Recent retip(canti also) Dude where did my soundstage width go invictus005Retip is a waste of money as I said from the beginning ...That's a pretty broad statement. I've had excellence experience with a retip by Soundsmith. I'd recommend them to anyone. | |
| Talk but not walk? kosst_amojanWhy's there this sideways expectation that folks aren't legit audiophiles unless they indulge in all the snake oil? There is no such expectation. | |
| Talk but not walk? jf47tI have my own audio forum where we report on audio issues as we empirically test them.Perhaps you mentioned it earlier and I missed it. Would you please tell us what forum that is? | |
| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES jhills In fact lower amp equipment should not be used in high amp circuits. If something fails, something might burn before the breaker trips.That's silly - properly installed 15A and 20A lines are equally safe. In each case, the breaker's fun... | |

| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES handymannmAccording to UL and NEMA, the only difference between a 125 vac 15 amp receptacle and a 20 amp receptacle, is the plastic cover governing the type of plug it will accept.This is mistaken. A 20A receptacle is designed to safely conduc... | |
