| Flexi-Rack Maintenance Question Hi Kenny. I'd expect the oil to as a solvent, lifting up the gum; if you wipe the excess off vigorously, I expect you'll be in a decent place. John | |
| The Harbeth phenomenon I'd take their advice, Banyon; who should know better than these artists how to electronically reproduce their craft?;) | |
| The Harbeth phenomenon EL34:"I'm not saying this to sound superior."All respect, but as I'm sure you anticipated, you handsomely succeeded in doing so. You do raise some interesting issues, though. I'm shopping for a flat screen TV to watch sports. Will LeBron James or ... | |
| Anyone heard/own the North Creek Big Kats? Hi Lake513. Nice system!! :) If I go for the Norths (I'm also considering Salk, Selah, Legacy, and a few others), I'll have Lee Tatlor build the boxes; he did a lovely job on my Eskas. I notice you have a pretty large room and lots of breathing sp... | |
| Flexi-Rack Maintenance Question Hey Kenny. Before trying anything drastic, I'd try some 3 or aught steel wool and more walnut oil, and some very clean rags yo finish. The walnut oil might have gotten a bit gummy, esp. if there was a bit of excess on the surface, which could attr... | |
| Low Volumes Like Avguygeorge, I have some experience with managing rentals (8 years as a resident manager). While I agree that the presumption favors the complainer, and if it's audible at all in other units, you may get shut down, many jurisdictions have lan... | |
| Anyone successful in dealing with Tinnitus? Nicotico:Your thoughts on car noise are interesting. Ear plugs impacting wax should not be an issue, if your ears are clean. The over the counter Murine kit is easy to use, though it may require repeated application, and it is not unlikely that re... | |
| Cowboys Junkies: playing live in my area Have seen CJ numerous times, most recently last year. I'm always happy I saw them; they've been doing it a long time, and it shows in their very well put together shows. Margo is also very nice (in addition to being a hypnotic performer) and still... | |
| Select Your Less Than Ideal System C in a landslide. Next question: if you set out to follow plan C, and had to compromise on another link, where would it be?John | |
| Anyone heard/own the North Creek Big Kats? No Kat lovers? | |
| Computer Speakers - $200 -$300 price range I have Swan M200s, which I enjoy, and would recommend. They have been updated, and the new model costs a bit more, but I suspect you could come in under 300, esp. if used. John | |
| Is there a good 5 disc CD player out there ??? For 4-5k you could get into a computer-based system with a very nice DAC (I like my PSA Perfect Wave). I expect you could make it sound quite good, and you'd have *more* of the convenience which is presumably a central attraction of a changer. John | |
| Duane Allman: An Anthology I & II Nice memory, Chazro.I saw the post Duane Brothers in 81 or 82, at Cornell University's Barton Hall (site of some justly famous Dead shows). Place was a half full, maybe a few thousand people; you could wander right up to the stage. 45 minute encor... | |
| Duane Allman: An Anthology I & II On the Allmans doing the Band, they do "Dixie" on the Band tribute "Endless Highway." The Allmans' performance there might not be their best, but the disc is more interesting than a lot of tribute albums (though the recording is a bit tizzy on my ... | |
| Computer Do Over Sorry about the crash!I've always been a MAC guy, though of course both sides have partisans. If you go for a MAC, note that you will probably want some sort of monitor, and a keyboard. When I did the math, I came out ahead buying a Macbook laptop... |
