I find this so strange
It appears 'Fine Sounds Group' was bought out last year by Mauro Grange and Charlie Randall in partnership with LBO France and Yarpa. Charlie Randall may have had a lot to do with changing the name of the now USA New York based company.Quote from ...

If I physically apply pressure to the power supply input and the usb input cables the hum will go awayBy pressure do you mean a physical movement pressure or do you mean a physical touching pressure with your fingers to the metal outer shells of t... 
Protection
I would be willing to bet the OP could buy a round trip plane ticket and spend 1 night in a hotel cheaper than what a lawyer will cost him if the deal goes bad. 
Protection
You fly to where the guy selling the item lives and inspect the item first before paying him with a certified cashier check. That's real protection from getting screwed.Plus $10,000 is a lot of money to pay upfront for a piece of equipment sight u...

Lorcar,I would imagine you are scratching your head about now.Not the same answers you received on Steve Hoffman's forum are they?. 
Power Cord with a 20 amp female and 15 amp male ?
My shop inquired with them about it and we were told that the cord was good for 20A usage. As long as the connector is rated for 20A, which in my case the 330i presumably is, the orientation of the tangs is not important. 10-14-15: Reynolds853Exam... 
DAC drops out when Furnace starts or stops. HELP
Douglas_schroeder,I use a 2 meter digital coax cable myself. I don't think anyone here said a 1.5M was the magic length. I think Al, (Almarg), and Kijanki offered a more technical reasoning why the digital cable made the difference and the fact th...

DAC drops out when Furnace starts or stops. HELP
The AE cable is only one meter while the GH cable is 1 1/2M. Is it the length of the cable that could be the culprit or is it the design/construction differences?10-09-15: JadedavidHopefully someone like Al, (Almarg), will chime in. As for the AC ...

Power cable "Break in" question
Like Lowrider57 said. It has to be connected to a load. If you buy one of these you could connect it to your refrigerator. The new power cord needs to be at least 14 gauge wire though.. 
Power Amp Repair Question
They had a $100 estimate fee and I assumed I'd get an estimate with a diagnosis. After one month, the shop doesn't know what's wrong but says I lose the $100 if I want it back. I asked if they might know in 2 more weeks and they said probably not.... 
Heat heat and more heat??
Daveyf,Curiosity killed the cat. Did you disconnect the Sub from the amp to see if that was the cause of the heat?(I assume the heat is coming from the power transistors heat sink fins on each side of the amp.)If you did disconnect the sub and the... 
Hear sibilance on Krall, Famous Blue, D. Fagen?
All is well until she gets to the word "soon [we'll be without the moon…]." The letter "S" in the word "soon" is very strident. 09-04-15: RebbiShe sings the phase twice in the song. Neither passage of the words "soooon, we'll be without the moon",...
