300B Speakers, Reynaud & Reference 3A

A Little Hypocrisy?
I do not purchase "retail" priced software because of the high prices (have well over 1000 CD's and LP's, each).I would equate it to people complaining about gasoline prices (when they take a hike). Regardless of what gasoline engine one uses the ... 
Leviton 5262 Hospital grade outlets
Hi Marty:I was running an Audion Silver Night 300B stereo amp @ the time and started to loose midrange forwardness and clarity. HF's also became harsher during this period and I was using a Bel Canto DAC 1.0 DAC (one of the smoothest around 1.5 ye... 
Leviton 5262 Hospital grade outlets
I tried one of these (think I paid close to $20) and it was a waste of time/money. The sound became worse and worse over a period of three months (I had forgotten about the new outlet and ended up checking everything else before figuring out what ...

Cleaning vinyl - am I using this thing right???
Jimbo: Yes, as 4Yanx mentions the Ebay vendor will sell the item direct (I checked this out with the seller/manufacturer recently and posted this info @ AA in the Vinyl Forum along with the contact info - do a search of Groovmaster). I was told th... 
Cleaning vinyl - am I using this thing right???
BLW: I used a device called the Groovmaster (they are sold on Ebay). It seals off the label portion (both sides @ once) of an LP so that it can be placed under running water, or completely submerged if you wish.I now use running filtered/warm tap ...

Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit
