| Has buying and/or selling audio gear changed? Unless you can physically pick something up I would not buy used audio gear from anybody. Stretch and buy it new. I don't see very many good things on used anyway and you have no idea what the history is. It's no longer under warranty and God hel... | |
| Help me spend $100,000 on a new system do things gradually so you can appreciate the changes. Why would you want to spend $100,000 and have like eight boxes of stuff and then you put them all together and maybe it’ll sound OK but you’ll never know what does what in terms of a contribut... | |
| Was 1971 the high point of popular music? It was 1972. Meatloaf was the last album during the mid 1970s bat out of hell, that made sense. And then everything fell apart. | |
| Why isn't better quality used gear being made available? Interesting comments. I guess if you're spending 30 or 40,000 on an amplifier they're probably aren't too many of them and when they do happen to appear in an ad they are discounted nicely sometimes. Instant gratification to buy something like th... | |
| Have you seen the new McIntosh poster for $195? @mtbiker29 My guess is you're not posting this from A Federal prison so I would pick the second one.

| Where does music come from that streams? Is it possible that the streaming companies may be forced to choose from multiple pricing levels for what they get and in some cases they don't get the premium Quality Recording and pay for a cheaper recording and hope they can get away with it. | |
| Where does music come from that streams? So many versions exist on qobuz of the same album. Frankly I don't know what the record companies sent over. I don't care about the licensing. Tidal crops the top on the bottom of the frequency ranges to do their stupid Mqa crap. Sucks. I wish... | |
| Have you seen the new McIntosh poster for $195? @mtbiker29 Love your basement set up especially the rack and especially the table. Was this from a tree you cut down? | |
| Have you seen the new McIntosh poster for $195? Does this qualify as vintage art? | |
| Have you seen the new McIntosh poster for $195? They call it a light box. This is one of the most ridiculous things I've seen in my entire life. The logo is huge on the front. I like subtle logos Who is the brainchild that figured this out. So they're in a major big-time executive meeting and ... | |
| Have you seen the new McIntosh poster for $195? I was able to pick up several and will now auction them off on eBay. The first one I put up on eBay is now up to $715. I'm sure it'll go higher. I'm gonna make a killing. Maybe I should've waited. But I have so many to sell. Maybe I'll keep them... | |
| Speaker placement Quandary Do you do any DSP curves to measure the sound in your room? Before and after. I don't know too many people who actually do this because those dsp software packages are incredibly difficult to work with. The interfaces are horrifying and then you h... | |
| Speaker placement Quandary I really love the red room light and curious to know how you achieve it. Because it’s getting closer to Christmas maybe you should enhance the room with some green lighting too . My thought is to introduce a few pieces of furniture into the room t... |
