Anyone listen to entire albums?

New Dedicated 20A Circuit Wiring Questions
IMO. 15 amp is plenty, 20 amp is overkill. Two 15 amp separate circuits, in two convenient locations is smarter IMO. 1.0 amp slo-blo Fuse of my McIntosh mx110z Tube Tuner/Preamp. 3.2 amp slo-blo Fuse of my Fisher 500C Tube Receiver 6.3 amp Fuse...

Does Every Track Sound Great on Your System?
IF your system is capable of sounding great on some tracks, bass/mids/highs and not others, it’s the fault of the recording, not your system. musicians, placement of musicians in a space, specific mics used for individual instruments/voices, prop... 
Anyone listen to entire albums?
I was just laughing to myself about this. Went to change tracks yesterday, forgetting it was an LP. LP’s, usually all the way thru, and I definitely want the original order. I like extra tracks as long as they are added at the end (CD or LP). Re... 
how to remove a woofer from b@w801n
Not familiar with the connectors or if soldered connections. IF you need to cut the wires, pick a spot that allows easy re-connect, and arm yourself with a connector set. Bullets allow connect/disconnect, and are a good way to add some extra wir...
