| Your vote: Most Useless Audio Adjective "Night and day" Overused. At night it's dark, in daylight it's bright. A real night and day comparison would be the first TV set I saw in the 50's, compared to the new HD sets being offered now. | |
| Ready to try vinyl About five years ago, I decided to make the jump back to vinyl. I've got lots of old records that I was never able to part with, and with reading all that was said on these forums, decided to give it a shot.After a lot of reading, I came to the co... | |

| Any vets among the Audiophiles here? Served in the Navy in the late sixties. Was in Corondo, San Francisco, and the Phillipines. Didn't know what "high end" was in those days. | |
| What items do you rarely ever see offered for sale Working, perpetual motion machines | |
| O.K. Fess Up. Come Clean. Sing Like A Canary. The lifter in question can be a bear to install, and get working properly, but once done, works great. A small chunk of blue tac will hold it in place | |
| Is the Ortofon Kontrapunkt A compatible with MMF-7 This is what infuriates me, has gotten me going to these high end sites less and less. A person posts a question. Many may think it's a stupid one, but a question never the less. The idea is to get people with more experience to help out. He eager... | |

| OK, I said it... Isn't analog fun? No matter what you do, someone will say its wrong. It's part of the hobby to find out what works with what in YOUR system. | |
| Is heavy vinyl worth it? Pbb, didn't you once state that too much bacon was bad for your chlorestoral? | |
| Differences in CD players? Am I crazy? Zoya, I know that it's possible that the disks used were not the best example of the new medium. But SACD is touted as the next level of improvement. It should be as obvious as can be. One should not have to strain to attempt to hear the differenc... | |
| Differences in CD players? Am I crazy? I feel your pain. I think the problem with this sort of thing are the reviews. They say things like: "the depth of the soundfield is astonishing!" "I rediscovered my record collection all over again" "The difference was day and night" I don't have... |
