A good universal remote that works changing inputs on new 8K Anthem MRX and AVR's
That is most odd, @balooo2! You might want to ask Anthem if they'll give you the remote hex codes. Some are posted with links right on its website.  
Esoteric VRDS-NEO not reading discs
stereo5 I do not think shipping your CD player to Esoteric for around $200 both ways is too much for a 20K product is unreasonable... +1. I know it can sting, but I consider occasional costs such as this just part of the hobby, even if obvious...

The 650 is a learning remote. If you have the original Anthem remote, you should be able to get it to work.  
IsoAcoustics Gaia feet on Oracle Delphi turntable
I had a Delphi III years ago. The secret to getting the best from it was optimizing its finely tuned suspension. I don't think adding suspension to the turntable is likely to offer benefit and is more likely to hurt its performance.  
Is Forte Free Agent still good for Newsgroups?
jjbeason14       ... What's a pay to play news provider? Someone like Supernews. The newsgroups were near dead last time I checked them a few years ago.  
Qobuz Payment Question
Check your bank's website to see if it offers virtual credit cards.  
Innovative Autio in NYC just hung up on me
bubba12 There is this false narrative about dealers being helpful and nice. I have not necessarily seen that. They don’t let you really listen at your leisure. They control the music selection ... You've been visiting the wrong dealers.  
Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this?
yogiboy I’ve never have seen an audio component with a 20 amp cord. Have you? Yes, absolutely. Audio Research, D’agostino, others. It’s not necessarily that they need the full 20A at 120VAC, but that the manufacturer recognizes the advantages... 
Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this?
gs5556 A true 20-amp circuit has a 20-amp receptacle, which has a different blade configuration so a standard (15-amp) plug won't fit into it. Are we talking about the US? A 15A plug will fit into a 20A receptacle. The opposite is not the case... 
Synergistic Orange and purple fuses popping
jerryg123 Fuse standards are not UL. Safety standards are set forth by the N.E.C. in the US ... You are mistaken - UL most certainly sets standards and issues certifications for fuses. Some info specifically referring to fuses and fusehold... 
What is the best way to clean Vinyl?
rsf507 US do a great job at cleaning BUT are a PITA to use. That’s why there are units such as the Klaudio (and Audiodesk). The one-button simplicity and ease-of-use simply can’t be beat.  
Isolation transformers output voltage higher than wall
erik_squires Acceptable AC voltage range in the US is 110V to 126V. That is mistaken. Nominal US voltage is 120VAC, most states regulate that at ±5 percent, so the range is between about 114VAC to 126VAC. That's actually explained in the link ... 
Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
kuribo And why we are continuously subjected here in this non-commercial forum to these blatant commercial ads is sickening. Perhaps you are visiting the site too frequently if your frustration and sickness is continuous. Perhaps you shoul... 
What is the best way to clean Vinyl?
I prefer ultrasonic. I really like the one-button convenience of the Klaudio, and there's also the AudioDesk. They're pricey, though.  
Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube!
rbertalotto ... is it total nonsense when YouTubers play music to suggest you can hear a difference between components ... It’s nonsensical to me how anyone can use a lo-res source such as YT to judge audio quality. Yet there are some YouTuber...
