| GROUNDING - assistance on how NOT to shock yourself another Wisconsinite here and I can attest to the aridity. In my case, I simply touch the metal base of my "equipment lamp" that is next to the turntable before I lift the tonearm, for some reason this doesn't create the same "POP" and I don't fee... | |

| Having a Flashback Friday - Airplane Induced @jsalerno277 all good! There is (was) nothing in the world like a Grateful Dead concert and I don't think there ever will be. I feel, well, grateful that I was able to experience some of that magic. And you are spot on with Phil - guy was a ge... | |
| Having a Flashback Friday - Airplane Induced Another deadhead over here, but I love the studio albums as much as the live stuff. Saw them over 100 times back in the day and enjoyed every show, even the tepid ones (including Jerry's last show here in Chicago). | |

Of course, at 13 years old, everything see... | |

| Dual Subwoofers? I'm considering a pair of martin logan subs, heard them and like them. Lotsa setup/control features. | |
| Solid State Preamp to replace tube unit I've been using an ARC LS7 since 1998 and have never changed a tube. I also leave all my gear on, 24/7 unless there is a power storm or I'm going out of town. I don't understand how tubes can last this long. I generally listen for at least a coupl... | |

| Physically Comfortable Headphones Open back headphones have been revelatory in my hifi journey. I use Stax, which are admittedly ugly, but they sound like new (and they were made in 1979). They are easily the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. |
