Best speakers for Pink Floyd?
I've heard the clock-chime sequence merge into the "scene from an acid drenched western" on big honkin' VMPS towers. Breathtaking...  
Has anyone had trouble acessing the Industry Directory Page of manufacturers??
I agree. Another thing that bugs me is the way AGon removed the "scrolling arrows" from item pictures. Now you have to click on every picture (of a for-sale item) you want to look at, back out, then click on the next one. A pain. 
Help With 60Hz Hum PLEASE
If you have a cable TV connection to your audio system, it is probably this. I've had hum problems with my phono preamp that was corrected by re-orienting the equipment to a different location.

"Thriller": A great demo disc!
Quincy Jones is an awesome producer. 
Audio Research discontinuing lower lines components?
As a Costco shopper (bought my Superbowl steaks today!) I’d like to explain the three-for-$50 steaks to ya. At this price, they were undoubtedly Prime cut and at least two inches thick (I know, Prime ain’t what it used to be). So this nice steak c... 
What's your biggest surprise in hifi?

What's your biggest surprise in hifi?
Biggest surprise? How many new players enter the market every year.After all, this is a "dying hobby" right? So why so many new entries? 
Noticed the Patriot Act's effects on PayPal?
phd: If you think the march was a big deal, why didn't you tells us what it was about?  
Treating Floor in New Construction - Reducing Footfall and Vibration
A person I knew had a giant listening room (30 X 30) over his garage.This room has NO BASS! We speculated that the plywood flooring was soaking it up. I'd go with heavy ceramic tile flooring to keep the bass in the room. 
In Memory of Glenn Frey...Favorite Eagles song?
Life in the Fast Lane. 
Toslink/optical cable recommendations
O.K., let's start making tweeter diaphragms out of stainless steel as they will be less likely to get dimples from children's fingers!I'm willing to bet that when Google (Alphabet) wires a town with fiber optics they don't use plastic.

So, someone who doesn't make glass fiber cable say's theirs is better because it doesn't "fracture" if you bend it? No vested interest there (do you believe everything you read?). Also, the Wireworld isn't a single "large" filament but many smalle... 
Toslink/optical cable recommendations
"without fracturing the way glass-based cables might" um, yeah...

Wireworld Supernova 7 polished glass-fiber works well for me.
