Notice how many SACD collections for sale?
Bye. SACD ain't no great success but it's still dandy and I, for one, will be enjoying the ones I have and the new ones (3 today!) for a long time.Kal 
Speed bumps as a cause of hearing loss.
Slipknot1 asked: "Will our MD's on the forum PLEASE weigh in on this one?"I am not an MD (although I do train them) but it is my background in anatomy, physiology and neuroscience that moved me to ask for any evidence for this heretofore unknown p... 
is music hall out of business?
Not implying anything. He asked 'does anybody know if they're still in business?' and my answer of 'As of a few days ago, yes,' should be pretty clear: My information is a few days old but YES!I find it surprising that someone cannot understand su... 
Speed bumps as a cause of hearing loss.
"I am a chiropractor and can verify the fact that speed bumps will absolutely mis-align the tiny bones in the ear..."Is there any real evidence of this?Kal

Question = High Definition Radio Capabilities

Move to NYC Apt -- Vandersteen 3A Speaker Woes
It really depends. When I moved to an apartment in Manhattan from a big house in the suburbs, I had a similar concern and I ended up disposing of a lot of stuff that I later regretted. You can always sell/swap it later when you know exactly what y... 
Plugging an Int Rec Pre-Out into another receiver?

Bel Canto eVo 6 Gen2 v Cary Audio Design Cinema 5
