| HELP - Electrical / Wiring with new build of home Walkelin - Why do you think copper is better? If you are worried about impedance you can get more mho per $ with aluminum. If you are concerned about safety, that is not a concerned shared by the electrical construction industry (assuming proper t... | |
| Cats and audiophiles I've been told that they help cancel sidewall reflections if you have them stuffed and stack them about halfway between your listening position and speakers. FWIW. | |
| HELP - Electrical / Wiring with new build of home Tin plated copper looks like aluminum & is sometimes used, fwiw.Anyway, aluminum wire at the service entrance to my house, that was landed on properly designed terminals, would not bother me in the least. The small gauge stuff, and connection ... | |

| BAT's house sound Trcnetmsncom - Hi Tom. Coming back to me with a different perspective on price to performance is fair and appropriate. My guess is that perceived value has a lot to do with how well a product matches our preferences and personal taste. Happy Liste... | |

| Poor man's IC cooker? Agreed with others, oughts to work fine, couple thoughts tho. Twere it I, I'd probably drop the resistors from 100K to the minimum I could get by with without taxing the source and probably have the tuner sitting on a station that played music sim... | |
| What is the future of redbook players? If you mean that they are much much better now, esp. when you look at value with inflation factored in, I agree with you. If you could get something like a music hall mmf7 in 1980 for the same relative dollars, people would have found it a lot mo... | |
| What is your idea of a Perfect Album? The Concert for Bangla Desh succeeds on several different levels. | |
| Ah Njoe Tjoeb vs Marantz dv 9500? FWIW. Another option is to buy the base model Njoe & see how you like it. I broke down and ordered one a few days back & they confirmed that there is not a price penalty for waiting and then going to the upsampling chip down the road if yo... | |
| Reviews with all double blind testing? My take on the article was that J.A. was being deliberately obtuse because he has no intention of ever doing db tests. It also seems unreasonable to argue that any difference which can not be detected unless you know which component you are listen... | |
| See it frequently: What exactly is a "troll"? This topic and all the above answers are stupid!I.E. Something like that :). | |
| What numbers are important in SS amps specs FWIW - Watts ain't watts, you've got to know measurement conditions before even that measure is meaningful.Anyway, your speaker manufacturer should provide you with a specification for minimum reccomended power & approximate nominal impedance.... |
