| What cause tweeters hiss ? Easy solution: don't stand so close to the speakers! Just enjoy the music! | |
| Top 10 vintage cassette decks Nakamichi 1000 was the king as far as I'm concerned, if you can find one in survivor or reconditioned shape. Much cheaper but still quality: Tandberg TD310 (controls non-solenoid and a bit clunky); TD330 (solenoid controls, much better aesthetics... | |
| Where do you buy your vinyl? eil.com (eil.co.uk) especially for original uk releases | |
| Keeping your components Dust Free If you feel anxious and the equipment is vented (holes or slots on the top of the case), just remove the top cover every few years and vacuum the dust out. Make sure you unplug first! If equipment isn't vented, don't worry about it; it'll be cle... | |
| What are we objectivists missing? If we knew what the missing measurement parameters were, we'd be using them and they'd no longer be missing. | |

| How to secure a large power cord to a piece of equipment? But has the sponge been cryogenically treated? Inquiring minds want to know! | |
| Chris' latest cables. Shill | |
| Bybee Technologies Crystal Series Plug-in Speaker Bullets. Gosh. A couple of connectors flanking some potted gobbledy-gook, for only $3000? From a real physicist? From my standpoint, another don't-need-it audiophool product, but YMMV. | |

| My last Integrated Amp: $5-10,000? +1 Luxman 590AXII | |
| Integrated Amp Suggestions 250 wpc? With the speakers you have, that's like buying a Challenger to drive back and forth to the grocery store. 30 (class A) wpc with my Forte IVs is more than enough to drive you out of the room screaming. | |
| Beware poor sounding media Oh no! Not poor sounding media! How will we ever survive? I'm sure no one has ever had poor sounding media before. Thanks, OP, for bringing this to our attention. | |
| Ridiculous sale +1 @rbstehno Same thing with any of the premium Mustangs (Shelby Cobra Supersnake) in the last few years. Premiums in the 10s of 1000s added to MSRP. Supply and demand; you may not like it, but there it is. |
