| California Audio Labs Icon @bigkidz +1 They replaced a laser in an old Kavent CD 731 CD player. Breath of life in a great older player that would have unwarrantly hit the trash. Playing like new every day. The key to bringing the old stuff to life is finding the right doct... | |

| Phono preamp for a Denon 103R cartridge. +1 @jasonbourne71 I have an older Schiit Mani that I bought as a backup 5 years ago. I had to swap it in place of my expensive main phono preamp that was tubed and modified with all new caps , etc. I threw my Benz Micro Glider, 1.1mv, via my Vpi... | |
| The Allure of Vintage Audio Gear I have a "vintage" Sonic Frontiers SFP1 PHONO PREAMP that I bought here on the 'gon in 2007. I bought it as a relatively "newbie" that I paired with a Benz Micro Glider MC cartridge, 1.1mv. it sounded great for years. I upgraded several compone... | |
| What is your "holy grail song" that you cannot find? @thecarpathian Thanks for the suggestion of the 45's on Ebay. @mitchagain And thank you too, for the suggestion on the CD compilation. I am going to look into both options. Appreciate it! For some reason, I know that song by heart within my h... | |
| What is your "holy grail song" that you cannot find? Hot Smoke and Sassafras, by the Bubble Puppy. I heard that song in the early 60's and totally flipped out over it. Can't find an LP or 45. | |

| Creativity on artists I dislike @shtinkydog I am still ony ass recovering from total uncontrollable laughter at your band names. Totally funny and entertaining. @tony1954 I think it's all in good humor and these days we all could use a laugh 🤣 | |
| It Pegged the Needle on My "BS Meter". Now, I'm A Believer. Ever Happen to You? @waytoomuchstuff I don't have experience or any input to your discussion. But I will say this; you are an excellent writer, for sure. You have a great command of words, an invisible sense of intelligence that comes off as purely inquisitive and i... | |
| You're not a true audiophile unless... You are not an audiophile until you spend 3k on a piece of gear that you let sit in your rack for weeks and don't crank it up for fear that it might not work or cause a malfunction or might not sound like an improvement over the gear you replaced ... | |
| Anyone at home at Krell? I had tried to get some help regarding an amplifier issue with my KAV 250A. This is well before Rondi had passed (rip, prayers). All tech support voice mail boxes were full. So I tried sales extensions. All sales voicemail boxes were full. Imagin... | |
| Why are high efficiency speakers preferred for low volume listening? I would never buy a speaker with a sensitivity level below 92db. Please pardon my lack of knowledge and inexperience as a technician, but lower sensitivity speakers, at least in my experience requires the amp to bring them to life. Oftentimes I ... | |
