Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
Uh, oh, looks like someone just experienced the famous glubson wit and irony. In fact this whole thread has become a study in wit. Or half of one anyway. 
Please tutor me on some integrated amp basics.
Monster gets a bad rap for a reason. OK, it’s better than coat hangers, I’ll give you that.

Beware of new material claims - the case of graphene
China is technically underrated. In fact, they hold the current distance record for quantum teleportation. They are also rather adept at making iPhones and iPads. All tennis racquets are made in China, including Head Graphene racquets. Besides, no...
