| Time for dedicated outlets! lowrider57Something that I’ve wondered about, electricians use staples when running cables. Any audible effect ? (as long as they don’t pierce the jacket).I think clips are preferable to staples. That's what my electrician uses. | |

| FM alive and well here...curious question schubertSeems OK to me, WI public radio puts out an uncompressed signalThere’s no such thing as a real radio station that transmits an uncompressed signal. They all have signal processors in the audio chain, either before the STL, or before the t... | |
| FM alive and well here...curious question tablejockey is the sound quality of playing an online statin equal to a nice tuner?In a word: No. It's not even close. | |
| FM alive and well here...curious question The advantage to using a "real" antenna - by which I assume you mean a directional antenna - isn't just the added gain, but the potential for reduced multipath and the distortion that goes along with it. Whether that would be noticeable on your s... | |

I'd put Oracle and Linn at the top of the low-mass designs - I had an Oracle Delphi for years and it was superb. I've long since returned to a... | |
| Amp current - how much high current to go for yogiboyAny solid state amp that is worth its salt should double the power into 4 ohms,or come close to it!Sorry, but I don't think that's true at all. For example, many McIntosh SS amplifiers use autoformers on the output, so they are rated to d... | |

| ZYX Ultimate with carbon fiber cantilevers -- listener reviews? don_c55$15,000 for a cartridge.No matter what anyone says about the quality, that is absurd!It's a subjective judgment. I'd never pay that kind of money for a phono cartridge. But many people think that what audiophiles commonly pay for component... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... jinjukuI never said, or didn't say that the method is scientifically rigorous If you're not interested in a scientifically valid test, then this exercise is really just a waste of time, imo. But it's fine if you're having fun with it - that's n... | |

| Most Important, Unloved Cable... shadorneThe silence of the evangelists in response to your $2000 challenge is absolutely deafening. Any rational person has to ask, "how real can these claimed audible effects be if the evangelists refuse to pocket easy money and dismiss the ... | |
