Best building material for vibration free shelving
I already mentioned I’m not a fan of carbon fiber. For wood I suggest using only a thickness greater than 1 1/2 inch for stiffness. I’m also a fan of granite and bluestone for their mass and stiffness, especially very thick slabs. Balsa is an unkn...

Both BDR Cones and BDR Shelf are made of special carbon fiber composite that includes resin. According to the BDR pages on Music Direct, anyway. Comparing both types of BDR cones to cones that are *very hard* such as steel cones or NASA grade cera... 
Fuse upgrades? -- 6.3 amp 250v 5X20mm fast blow fuses
@whitestix SR hasn’t sold 30,000 fuses for no reason.

That’s fine if you’re a Japanese businessman. But the favorites of real Japanese audiophiles are Isoclean, Furutech, HiFi Tuning, SR and Audio Magic. They eat the Bussman and Littelfuse for breakfast. 🍳 🥞 ☕️ 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Dave, stop projecting. I know you are but what am I? 🤪

My relationship to engineering is that I am one. And my understandings are by no means unique. Actually, my understandings are rather with the majority of high end audiophiles. Better luck next time.

So sayeth The Iron Sheik.  Pro wrestling at its worst? You mean there’s a best?

People are free to believe what they wish to believe. But I wouldn’t expect audiophiles as a group, who demonstrate a good amount of skepticism, to necessarily automatically buy into any hog swallop that might be tossed their way, but I also suspe... 
Are audiophiles still out of their minds?
Question. Would you rather have great sound or $10,000 of great massages plus all the great beer you can drink? 🙄

I mentioned Audioquest since power cords are obviously in an AC circuit. No, I’m not an Audioquest sales guy. Would that make a difference? Do you think Audioquest is lying? I’m talking about all wires, obviously. To be honest, I’m not sure you ar...
