Cheater plugs with amplifiers?
I have always assumed that let's say an ungrounded power amp (at the power cord) would be grounded by the IC's running to a grouded preamp and or something else that "is" grounded down the line.. Is this faulty thinking?

I would submit the Quad 303, 33 and Fm3 as being "cute and sexy," I was younger when I owned them and kept them far too long even after they had been sonically surpassed by better gear in my possession. To be honest I kept them almost 20 years (pu...

Gallaine: I have two sets of the least expensive "Surefoot" points on order. The bad news is that Fed Ex and possibly Mapleshade screwed up the shipping info and they are being returned to Mapleshade, and not delivered to me. I was at least able t...

PS: So what's good (no major flaws) at $300.00 and down? 
How Much Do You Need to Spend on a PC?
But, what are the $200.00 and under cords that the members have had good results with? Did everyone start with a three to five hundred dollar on up cord? I use the Harmonic Tech Pro II PC on my DAC (previosly used it on my all in one player) with ...

Can't believe that I forgot these guys, "The Climax Bues Band" the yellow album. I picked it up in Hawaii in 72 but it was not available in the Continental US for some time after that.
