| Love getting new equipment, hate the break-in I remember when I was an audiophile newbie, I think in the late 90's, there was a buzz about a "state of the art" CD player, Ultech UCD 100, a unit that was rated in Stereophile recommended components. I bought it from a high end store in Chicago,... | |
| Amazon Prime ads making the site un-usable. I have an Android with updated software and I get pop-ups every 6 seconds. Driving me nuts. | |
| Where were you when you first heard ""Born To Run"? @zx10 I have to be honest, I don't really like most of "stinkstien" either. Probably about 6 songs all told. But, seems as if free speech only works, unless it doesn't fit your narrative. Go to Truth Social or X, but get off of Audiogon and... | |
| Where were you when you first heard ""Born To Run"? @howardlee could you define a bit about what post you are talking about? And if it was mine, I do remember sitting on the floor in my basement hearing the news that Kennedy was shot. How does hearing a popular rock song become tied in with a ... | |
| What A Drag It Is Getting Old I have never EVER had such a great time on an Audiogon forum. I have never laughed so much, nor been so impressed with such good hearted wisdom about aging and continuing on in our lives with our beloved hobby. At a mere 67 years old, I feel so... | |
| Tube Pre-amp Suggestions. Ok, made in China. But this preamp brought magic alive in my system. I've had it for over 2 years now with narry a glitch. Miles above any preamp in the same category. http://www.audio-gd.com/HE/V1HE/V1HEEN.htm | |
| Looking for new speaker cables Check out Signal Cable, a company in New York. Set aside the reputation of all the big names and all the hype about the sound quality. These are custom cables at affordable prices with attention to high audiophile standards. If you don't like th... | |
| Help! Pre amp turning on by itself. @winoguy17 @larsman Wino, before I even got done reading your post I already anticipated larsmans response. You have to admit some of these responses were pretty funny. On a serious note; my wife has the same issue with her iPad. She'll c... | |
| Should I buy another flat screen now while they are still relatively cheap? @bigtwin entry is correct and accurate. I have a Sony LED that I bought 16 years ago. That TV owes me nothing. I use it approximately 15 hours a week , sometimes more. Never fails me ( of course tomorrow it probably will crap out). I dread loo... | |
| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? I'll keep it simple. I have been a member for over 20 years. Do I recall there being a more active era of members with enhanced knowledge and great personalities? Yes. Thing have changed a great deal. But I still learn so much from the regulars on... | |
| Shakti Stone @unclewilbur I agree.. | |
| Get yer Alice at Axpona @jasonbourne71 I have to agree with Jason. This is kind of ridiculous. BACKSTORY! I was maybe 12 years old when the song, "Schools out for the summer" was in the top 40 on the radio. I loved that song. I was a budding musician then, but really ... | |
| Power Cords/ Conditioner/Surge Protectors @bigtwin In response to the OP you wrote: "I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF WRITING A SNARKY ANSWER TO THIS REPETITIVE QUESTION.WHEN I REALIZED NO ONE IS MAKING ME READ POSTS THAT HAVE NO INTEREST FOR ME. SO I DELETED IT. TALK AMONGST YOURSELVES." ... | |
| A life sentence!!! My Dunlavy SC 3's. They are over the top. Sound as good now as they did 20 years ago. | |
| Upscale Audio is up front with customers @hilde45 , great post. I called them to get advice on retubing a prima luna integrated amp. I was also surprised, as one mentioned in this thread, that they said they don't give tube recommendations. They weren't rude at all. In fact they were ver... |
