Throw it out!
Does anybody know of a place that buys entire record and CD collections that will pick up or have them shipped? If so, please let me know.  I am pretty much done with vinyl and CD's since discovering streaming and only want to keep a handful of e...

First Bi Amping Experience
Regarding wattage and for what it's worth,  I normally don't use more than a few watts per channel, but DO use every bit of my available 7200 watts at @8 ohms in one of my rooms when I want my fix, and before someone makes some condescending comme...

I discovered that technique long ago with anything or anybody that annoys me 😉!  
Upgrade Nakamichi PA 7All power amp with mono blocks
thriftyaudio OP In response to your question and If I may give you my advice, don’t fall into the trap of taking reviews, comparisons and hype as fact.  Specs can give you a reference but definitely don’t rely on them to tell you how musical any ... 
Upgrade Nakamichi PA 7All power amp with mono blocks
Between the options you listed, PS Audio M 700 Mono Blocks without a second thought. They are a huge leap! You won’t miss absolutely anything from any amp class and wonder why you never heard such sound before. The improved stage, separation, dyna... 
Dog pissed on speaker
That’s the problem with pets! Had a cat years ago that scratched all the pieces of a very nice new leather living room set and tried to start using my speaker grills as a scratching post. The cat and owner were politely asked to find another good ... 
Customs delay from China. How long should I reasonably wait?
I have only purchased one audio component from China, and it took around 15 days to arrive at my door. As far as your item being chosen randomly for inspection by customs, that only takes minutes to open and tape back. I know this firsthand. We ar... 
You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them?
While some reviewers speak the truth, they cannot be 100% trusted because at the end of the day only your own system, room and ears can properly judge a new piece of equipment, regardless of what they say or their experience level. I may watch oc... 
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
  tlcocks  No offense to you or anyone but I gave Schitt a try by buying 3 components for a guest room and all 3 had issues of some sort and had to return them all.  Horrible customer service and subpar product in my opinion, and yes I am talking... 
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
mirolab  Thank you, someone recommended that one to me.  Although I know they make good stuff because I had a few components long ago I am no longer into McIntosh.  I know that their newer stuff is more neutral as opposed to their older warmer sou... 
Nakamichi ZX-9 Azimuth Adjustment Wire
ddzstereo OP: I would just use a very sharp metal drill bit and use cutters not of a scissoring action.  I have no idea about a replacement though.  Most of that stuff is unavailable.  You could contact a place like Mouser Electronics and perhaps ... 
Recommended RCA sub-woofer cable? Thank you.
vinylfun As aforementioned, budget is "a thing" if you want recommendations, which is why I recommended what I did on my first post, the least that I would settle for assuming low budget, otherwise my recommendation would be AudioQuest Fire, but ...
