| How much does your system retail for? So much that if I told the truth, I'd be embarassed or institutionalized. With the addition of the room cost and the speaker cost, I unfortunately may have won the stupidity race. Bill E. | |
| Advice on building a dedicated listening room. I began with excellent equipment and then realized that I'd never get the room as right as a pro. I kept working on better design and finally threw in the towel and hired Reeves Audio. Give some serious thought to professional help. While there is... | |
| Why vinyl? For a long time, I wouldn't buy a TT or records. Everytime I heard a demonstration of why vinyl was better, it wasn't, but it was different in most cases from CD's. I based my audio experiences on CD's and concluded that clean, low background nois... | |
| What was your biggest priority? Relatively equal for turntable, phono stage, amps. Cables the highest cost due to long runs and the room equal to all cost of equipment combined. | |
| Will your cables live FOREVER? SURE!But I won't. I've found it best to worry about my lifetime not my equipment's.WHAT, me worry???Bill E. | |
| Where 2 buy 3x distilled water and 100 alchohol? Yes, I've been outed. I'm really looking for a substitute for my sudo-addiction to old armagnacs. Perhaps you've been right. Maybe I'm really looking for my record cleaning supplies.I figure 80/20 of the purist water to purist isopropyl alcohol is... | |
| When it's to good to be true? Albert,In my opinion, there has been much to much discussion of the purchase of the Brooklyn Bridge. As a New Yorker and a real estate owner/operator, I assure you that the Brooklyn Bridge would be a bargain at virtually any price, if tolls were a... | |

| Best bargain find ever ? My greatest bargain has been the relationships which came about as a result of buying and selling on Audiogon.Bill E. | |
| Addicted to Audiogon? What do mean ADDICTED? Just because I look at the site 10 or 15 times a day waiting for the perfect item to become avaiable at 1/10th it's value, you call that addicted? I don't think it's very funny to make fun of people with personality disorder... | |
| Static from Aesthetix phono stage when tt not on I've been through a series of trials and it seems that the TT produces static on removal of the record because it's an air bearing under the platter and the tonearm is an air bearing. In addition the phono stage is making funny ripping like crackl... | |
| Best Acoustically Untreated Room You Have Heard? Don Nigro had a room which was plaster walls, about an 8' high new sheetrock ceiling with a random pattern of joint compound as decoration and a t&g wood floor(yellow pine) with a carpet above. The effect was electric. He had drapes on the win... | |
| If you had a limo... I owned a factory formal Cadillac for seven years and was happy with the factory radio.Bill E. | |
| A/C noise How loud is the noise and how close do you have to get your ear to hear it? | |
| Is Audiogon worth it? YOUR RIGHT!If you perceive Audiogon as a hassle, then don't use it. We, the loyal don't need to proved anything to the uninitiated. Decide for yourself and act accordingly.It's worked for me. But, I don't know you and your integrity, honesty and e... |
