Why Veneer? Theo, I disagree! Yes, real premium hard-wood CAN crack, IF it has not been properly cured (dried), finished, or maintained! By maintenance, I mean applying some premium wax every month or two. I like Renaissance Micro-crystalline Wax Polish. Used... | |
Why Veneer? Some quality manufacturers do use REAL hardwood panels, but matching, curing, and fabrication is much more costly than veneer covered particleboard. Some cheapos even use Formica or (shudder) vinyl contact paper as a covering for the particleboard... | |
Cable management Wire ties...various sizes available at hardware, electronics, and auto supply stores. As Thedautch said, keep power cords separate from speaker cables and I.C.'s! | |
Which speaker is the master of IMAGING ???? Bose 901's. Gives the "up-chuck" imaging! | |
Buzzing in my speakers w/ new amp I'll place my bet on the cable TV producing the buzz! | |
Biggest Live Miss 23 years ago today............ Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, "Brain Salad Surgery Tour", and Pink Floyd, "Animals Tour". I had tickets, but ended up selling them, AT THE DOOR. Different reasons for both missed shows...but same post reaction. I've been kicking myself in the ass for... | |
Rattle from Ceramic art pieces David99, can you remember the name of that "no-name". The two samples that I tried were definitely more sticky, tacky, and softer than Blue Tack, especially if they were warmed up (like summer time here in Arizona!) Let me know...and thanks for yo... | |
Rattle from Ceramic art pieces Blue tack is better than the no name blue poster gum that David99 mentions. The no name is MUCH more sticky and gummy, and tougher to remove. Also, any chance of placing a towel or wash-cloth over the ceramics while you are listening? | |
Terminology? My Medulla Oblongata must be wasted and/or fried! I thought the discussion was about "Inna-Gadda-Da-Vida"...someone pass the bong this a' way, please! | |
Marketing Ideas Be-gon..for neighbors that you'd like to get rid of! | |

Did I make a mistake with my Nautilus 805? Hey, Audiobugged, nice recovery! Your stand up shtick had me laughing all day! All is forgiven...you are no longer banished to 24 hours straight of Brittany Silicon an In*Suck played at maximum volume through your Koss Pro 4AA headphones. Cheers! | |
What's the ideal height for bookshelf speakers? Try to find an adjustable stand. The height of the speakers can make a dramatic difference in sound (I had a pair of Sonus Farber E.A.II's, and they were REAL tweaky about height adjustment, although I can't comment about the vertical dispersion o... | |
Did I make a mistake with my Nautilus 805? Audiobugged, thanks for your comments...I now know NEVER to enter into a deal with you!!! kimu_ito@aol.com, when you tighten down the screws, remember to tighten them down in a "star-pattern" (like replacing a car tire) and make two or three passe... |
