| Network Transport vs. CD Transport @mahler123I don't understand why you have crashes. You probably need to do a clean install of the OS and associated applications. I initially used an iMac and a MacBook Pro to wirelessly stream my lossless ripped CDs for over 7 years and switched ... | |

| Help! Apple TV go through irdac? The Apple TV should stream your digital files. I stream my lossless ripped Cds from a Mac Mini to two 3rd generation Apple TVs and use the optical outputs into stand alone DACs. It works perfectly.Does the LED light turn on when you access your Ap... | |
| Emotiva not so good The only Emotiva gear that I have are their DACs. I currently have 3 Emotiva XDA-2 DACs in 3 different systems. I have been using them for over 5 years. They have a rich, detailed, engaging presentation in my systems. Over the years, I have tried ... | |
| Dried up Ferrofluid? As the ferrofluid dries up, the speaker’s high end becomes dull and loses some sparkle. It may not be evident unless one compares it to a speaker with fresh ferrofluid. Typically ferrofluid lasts about 15 to 20 years with normal use. KEF recommend... | |

| Itching for better sound Leemaze -Just curious, what speakers are you driving with your Yamaha A-S801. I was thinking of getting one to simplify my office system. I did a listen a while back and was pretty impressed with the amp. | |
| Itching for better sound I would go for the Yamaha, it has the most power of the three and the lowest price. The Marantz seems a little under powered. The Cambridge does not have tone controls which may or may not be an issue for you. Of course the sound quality is the mo... | |
| Itching for better sound Your receiver really will be a limiting factor with whatever speakers you choose. The Klipsch are very sensitive and your receiver will drive them. The KEF LS50 requires a good amp with sufficient power to get the best out of them. These speakers ... | |
| Vinyl cleaning and alcohol elliottbnewcombjrI don't know what is in that Fisher Scientific Versa-Clean formulation but I believe it is designed for glassware. Personally I wouldn't use it on LPs but if it works for some people it might be ok.I wouldn't worry too much about ... | |
| Vinyl cleaning and alcohol Just to clarify, alcohol is a generic term and there are thousands of alcohols. I believe most people are referring to isopropyl alcohol although one poster mentions using ethanol. I would recommend isopropyl alcohol and not ethanol.Another generi... | |
| Adding storage to a MacBook Pro The early 2015 13" MacBook Pro and mid 2015 15" MacBook Pro are upgradeable. As "sfar" has pointed out the instructions are available at ifixit.com. It is a straightforward process and takes about 1/2 hour. I have done both a MacBook Pro and a Mac... | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters I am not aware of any sealant on the bottom panel, but I have never removed mine. I believe there is a gasket on the panel or the cabinet itself which may have softened over time and caused the panel to stick. |
