| Vinyl Records - Shipping, max/min temperatures Thermostatic Controlled Reptile Heat Mats are quite cheap in the US, these are commonly 12V and will comfortably keep a space heated to a Temp Range of 10 Celcius to 25 Celcius.

| Vinyl Records - Shipping, max/min temperatures I don't think you have anything to worry about. If you're paranoid about condensation forming when you open the boxes at the destination, just line the shipping boxes with plastic bags, fill with LPs, and then tie the bag to seal the records.

| MICHI 8 Amp(s) @ozzy did one of the Goertz cables short? How did that happen? | |
| Burning CDs of downloaded music @sealegs I am not familiar with Macs, but I have burned thousands of CDRs on PCs. You need to burn them as audio CDs. It sounds like you burned the .wav files as data. Data CDRs won't play in a regular CD player. Look for audio burning software. ... | |
| Burning CDs of downloaded music @sealegs you need to convert it to .wav first. | |

| Dc voltage sent to my speakers If a preamp is outputting a little DC, is it always because of faulty output coupling caps? Should those caps always be expected to block all DC? I had one tube preamp that would trip the protection circuit of one of my amplifiers due to DC leak... | |
| Aurender Conductor V4 issues Aurender is extremely glitchy, period. There's an Aurender Facebook group and 50% or more of the posts are complaints. I hope they figure out their software, because if they don't, it will sink the company. I recently had an issue with my stre... | |
| What Holiday Gifts did you ask for or Give to Yourself? I bought a Bob's Devices SUT a few weeks ago. It wasn't a Christmas present, but now that I have about 12 hours on it, it's proving to be a very nice gift. Everything that I play sounds better than ever. | |
| When to choice XLR over RCA ICs. Thanks @atmasphere. I already have 2549 single ended ICs at a few location in my system, so converting them to balanced is what I’ll do. | |
| When to choice XLR over RCA ICs. @ketchup Mogami Neglex is the gold standard of high quality balanced cables in the studio. They employ oxygen free copper and polyethylene dielectrics (the only thing better perforamance is Teflon, but it does not prevent oxidation of the conduct... | |
| When to choice XLR over RCA ICs. @atmasphere Can you recommend some good bulk cable? I'd like to make a few balanced cables to try in my system. | |
| Polishing a Micro Seiki RT 3000G Gunmetal platter I may have misinterpreted the question. but looks like you're getting a variety of anwers. Good luck. --Jerry Well, the OP didn't say what condition the platter is in, so it's hard to know what it needs. What you recommended is on point if t... | |
| Polishing a Micro Seiki RT 3000G Gunmetal platter @carlsbad2 is right on. Stopping at 3k will probably give it a very nice finish, but if you want it even shinier, I'd end with a metal polish. | |
