| WHY NO GENESIS HIGH RES LOVE? You saw ELP at the Civic! Evidently that puts me in the cool factor as well. With Kieth crawling all over his Moog assy. And I also agree about Genesis & their recorded sound quality. It was like having a towel over the front of the speake... | |
| Sam here again.Is new remastered vinyl fake vinyl? Hey Sam, I kind of agree to an extent. Some LP's were so good originally having that 16 track tape sitting around for 40 years crystallizing can't be good for it. On the other hand some of the 40 year old music was so poorly mastered by some bon... | |
| What was your most disappointing album purchase? "Ummagumma" by Pink Floyd. Only LP I used for skeet. | |
| Youngsters these days. I'm kind of like the OP. I have all this old(er) type equipment as well. I'm in my 60's and like it all. It makes me happy and that's what matters.My wife & I joke about when we kick the bucket our daughter will break out the snow shovel an... | |
| Ksa 300s sfstereo: That is an extremely good point that I had completely forgot about. FWIW - I was using balanced. | |

When I read about him dumping Martin Barre like a hot rock a while back and what Martin had said about it, I thought he’s really flipped his lid. Ian stated that ... | |
| Audio reviews: too many analogies, never simple, but most of all, never clear. Reminds me of what (I believe) James Michener once said, "I takes me 100 pages just to say hello." | |
| Monster Cable m2.4s bi-wire I have had the same wires for years. If you have room try connecting both hi & low wires to the same spade stud. On my Infinity speakers there is room, but they offer bi-wire studs so that is what I use. On the amp side the are crimped tog... | |
| How to remove ground pin on power cable If your going to remove the end might as well replace it. They make male plugs with removable ground pins. They just unscrew. If it doesn't fix what ails ya, screw it back in. | |
| Child Damage Mitigation cd318; " Short sharp shock . . . . "Nice audiophile quote. Pulled that one out of the woodwork from say, 1973. Good one there. :')" I didn't really know I was drunk at the time." | |
| Break in time that extends to months or maybe even years!! I like Douglas Schroeder's claim. Re-enforces my idea of buying used. Well, I am a cheapo also, but don't tell anyone. | |
| How do you sort your LPs? Theo's got it. Same way we file companies and paperwork at work. Continuity. Got to keep it all the same. Doesn't take much to ball me up. |
