Broken banana plug and stuck in amplifier
One other possibly is a set of dental tools which can be found at at most pharmacies.Weird shaped picks might be able to hook it right out.  
Cable differences -- power, interconnect, digital, and in what order?
In my rural area power and noise doesn't seem to be a problem. I do have a dedicated line though.The most profound positive difference was finding a really good pc for the amp.Next was the digital cable which took me many tries to find 'the one'.T... 
Turntable for girlfriend
My son's girlfriend is happy with her Audiotechnica and powered speakers. I gave her some decent cables and footers to welcome her to the club;-)  
Múnich 2023 Pro-ject Dark side of the moon turntable
It is gaudy but I like how it looks too.But the clamp catching the light and flashing while the platter spins would get on my nerves  
Caveat about the Cable Company return policy
I've bought things from the Cable Company in the past also.A month ago I bought from them  a digital coax that so impressed me that I bought an interconnect of the same brand - Voodoo.So I inquired a few days ago about a loan of other Voodoo produ...

This thread made me really curious.I bought a pair of  gold colored ICs called "Cardas" for $27.I have no idea which Cardas the pair is trying to emulate but it does indeed sound way over the top warm and fuzzy. Two things I enjoyed were the vocal...

A Serious Subwoofer

Taylor Swift Concert Prices
I've still got ticket stubs from the $5.00 dollar concerts attended back in the 70s:-) I can see paying a few hundred for the VIP meet n greet tickets for a favorite artist. But 1k,just no.  
Triode wire silver statement power cable vs Verastarr grand ilussion power cable
I have two Triode Wire Labs pcs that I use on my digital components. They didn't impress on my amp or preamp though. If you're looking for a dynamic silver pc ZenWave silver ribbon pc is one to consider. No experience with Verrastarr.  
Poll: Most impactful component
Right now my source is the weakest component. But my room is not great either.  
A ridiculously cheap cable riser.
Do they come in white? :-)  
subwoofer buzz - how to eliminate it
Check out Primacoustic Recoil Platforms. I have them under each of my three subs.They work best flat against the bottom in between the feet.Not expensive and they're returnable No more rattles and tightens the bass significantly.  
Any Thoughts?
Hmm...Jim never asks for a second cup at home
