| What is your favorite low-tech tweek? Ppridday:I believe Cramolin to be the same as another product currently/recently available, but unfortunately I forgot the brand name. It might be one of the Caig products.When I ran out of Cramolin I used electrician's alcohol for a while (not go... | |
| What was your latest LP find?? 1. Three sealed copies (found a dozen @ the thrift) of "Rebuild Thy House" featuring the singing of Shlomo Carlebach & Sholom Katz on Elana Records. My wife once mentioned Shlomo being an old friend/neighbor (not certain if this was in NYC or ... | |

| Audiogon Abbr. Dictionary A couple of odd, but widely accepted ones are:IC = interconnect (instead of integrated circuit)PC = power cord (instead of personal computer)Both are fine with me as they work in context. | |
