Can you tell the difference between a $200 and a $200,000 guitar?
The difference in acoustic guitars is real and detectable to people who play. "Classical" guitars are a breed of their own. I play steel stringed guitars. IMHO, good to great guitars can be found (new) in the 2K to 8K range. Once you get above th... 
No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse?
audioman58 What were you smoking when you wrote that post? Might want to utilize the Preview button and proof your post, Not being snarky  but it really is difficult to make sense of.  
Am I right for this forum?
I sympathize with the OP on his feelings here. My interest in audio and gear has always been high. Much like in the sixties and the dawn of the muscle car era. Fond memories of lusting after the content of Car & Driver before I even had a driv... 
No discussion about the Synergistic Pink fuse?

Lotus Harmonic Enhancer by Tombo Audio
That many "Tweaks" reminds me of the early 70's auto malaise caused by fuel shortages and stringent emission control legislation. Car magazines ran many ads from some questionable purveyors of fuel economy improvers.  It got to where if you bough...

Help Connecting Computer To 2-Channel Rig For Video
Unless you search used OPPO is no more. Not enough info about your main system. Does your Pre or receiver have to old 3 wire AVI input?  
Hemi Sync Recordings
Elements of truth in much of this. Choose with care. In most cases, my guess is that the music hasn't changed. Your perception has.  
Seeking Budget CD Player Suggestions
If budget allows, Yamaha has an SACD player, the CD-S1000, for $1300. Sony lists their UBP-X800M2 player for $250 and says it will play most CD/DVD formats including SACD.   
At what point do you...
Depends. I have no issue buying open box or refurbished as long as it is from a reputable dealer or direct from manufacturer/outlet. Also look for an "as new" warranty.  
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/2669277  @dill. I take objection to your post. That attitude would seem to place you in the 1% crowd who seemingly has sufficient resources to continue to upgrade equipment seeking to lift that final veil and achi...
