THE Show 07
Baxel, Baxel, Baxel.The internet is your friend. Why post questions here when so much more information is available if you look for it? Three clicks and I was here. This is a list of exhibitors for T.H.E. Show. I think it is an overstatement to sa... 
"What's Your Best Price?"
Jmcgrogan2, I agree with you that best offer can indeed be higher than the asking price. To me best offer also includes other factors such as "I will send a postal money order via priority mail" vs "will you wait for my personal check to clear". I... 
Tact Pre Amps 2.2XP
I purchase TacT new from Aberdeen Components.As Mike pointed out, even though TacT is targetd for a primary listening point, the entire room benefits. Arguements that it makes the rest of the room worse are not true and generally misconceptions fr... 
"What's Your Best Price?"
Goatwuss, Our complaints (well at least mine)are because, for the most part, WYBP buyers are not really interested and just waste our time. If they were serious about purchasing the item they would make an offer.Of course the buyer wants to pay th... 
"What's Your Best Price?"
Onhwy61,You nailed it for me. I put up a number so now it is time for the buyer to put up a number. "What's your best price" especially irritates me when it comes five minutes after my ad has been posted.As someone else pointed out, I have never s...

I can't remember what gauge I ran for my 20 amp dedicated circuit. I know it was to code. Does anyone know what NEC recommends for a 20 amp circuit? Yes, I know it may be different locally but I think CA conforms (eventually).

what do you put under your sub?
My floor is a concrete slab with carpet and padding. The factory-supplied spikes for my two subwoofers were too short. They did not couple with the concrete. I was able to twist the subs a little in each direction. The subs seemed to float on the ... 
hifi audio in movies
If we want to degenerate to TV, one episode of Smallville prominently displayed some electrostats (I think they were Sound Labs) at Lex Luther's mansion/castle. If I remember correctly they did some wild back lighting of the speakers. I think Lex'... 
Am I the only one purchasing hybrid disc's.......
That is why I am refusing to buy any additional SACDs (hybrid or otherwise). 
Power cord that improve the soundstage the most?
Tplavas, Will the PCs be just new models/products or a new brand as well? In other words, do you have other products/PCs on the market that I may have heard of? 
Power cord that improve the soundstage the most?
Nsgarch, Great post. Thanks. 
PS Audio Noise Harvester
Does anyone have experience using the NHs on non-dedicated circuits while their audio/video equipment is on a different, dedicated circuit? 
Hybrid amps that can play 1 ohm loads
Bob, Are you not finding the magic you want with a good tube preamp and SS amp? From the replies so far it seems like 1-ohm tolerant hybrids are very rare and expensive. Not to mention they are not the most well known brands. I have been burned by...
