| What is the forum code word for "listen to this stoned". I'd like to use it on these two: Yeah, right. Crystal meth, window panes, crack, it’s all legal, man! 🤗 | |
| The Physics of Electricity Good catch. I didn’t necessarily mean my list was all inclusive. Shielding geometries, active cables, damping, magic boxes, all sorts of special innovations by various manufacturers pop up. My list is a good place to start. 🤗 Actually, the case co... | |
| Buyer is claiming damage that was done by him! As fate would have it even getting full insurance sometimes can’t save you. Because it’s much more difficult to get the postal services to pay off on damage claims. It’s not automatic, you know. They’re not giving money away. This is a case in poi... | |

| A little History lesson on, "High- End" cables: I’m not sure I would reference NASA as the source or inspiration for the MasterBuilt cables, you know, what with the fire 🔥 in the capsule, crappy Shuttle solid rocket 🚀 seals and lousy Shuttle 🚅 thermal tiles. | |
| Buyer is claiming damage that was done by him! Uh, I’m aware people often remove grills. Maybe a photo would reveal of the speakers knocked together during shipment, which actually doesn’t make sense if only one box was open or became open somehow during shipping. How? If the grills were pried... | |

| Buyer is claiming damage that was done by him! Just curious, why would he try to remove the grills? | |
| Miracles in Audio, by luck, by good choices,by design or by tweaking... No funky foam ear pads for this kid on my Grado SR-60s or 80s. Ruin the sound and the ear should be closer to the transducer. I use gel half circles around the circumference instead. I isolate my Sony Walkman with 2 Hz iso stand. Everything is cry... | |
| New Maplenoll Ariadne owner needing advice I had a Maplenoll Ariadne Special Edition with 50 lb platter back in the late 90s. Here are a few tips. When I first set mine up the large metal piece that is part of the platter support didn’t fit right and I had to order another one. I used 500 ... | |

| Barometric pressure, temperature, moon phase? Ironically, perhaps, Einstein was wrong about black holes and quantum mechanics, believing they were not real, two things he would have been unable to observe 👀 with his senses. | |
| Barometric pressure, temperature, moon phase? Einstein was a bit of an old fogey. He would have made a very bad audiophile. You have to learn to trust your senses! There are a great number of audiophiles by my reckoning who don’t really know what they are hearing or where their sound stacks u... |
