Thoughts about these forums
J.D.,I'm usually not at a loss for words. He he. Reading what you have written mirrors what now moves me. Like you, I've come to understand that our alotted time on earth is too short to waste. Bickering in these forums drags us down a destructive... 
Ls 3/5a sound without the price.....
Linn Kans, especially the originals at around $400 per pair used are exceptional.

Joe (Jphii),I got A Love Supreme today. Thanks. First listen, I got it. Too cool. Reading the book really helped. If you can't find a copy let me know and I'll send you mine. The story of what he was doing makes me wonder if other artists have bee... 
About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone
Lots of happenings at the Lugnut house. First, a short note about my health. I'm responding well to the Taxol. I received my third treatment on Tuesday after visiting with the oncologist. I now get a break of one week from treatment and since I ha... 
what speaker cable would you select?
Biggest bang for the buck audiophile speaker cables are the Speltz anti-cables. I bought some out of curiosity and have been passing them around our audio club. They are generally accepted as excellent. They could be difficult to work with as they... 
Shelter 501 MKII vs. Sumiko Celebration on a P25?
My opinion is worth what you're paying for it. I like the 501 better than the 901, so a good choice. The Celebration is one of my favorites. I doubt it enjoys the qualities that some golden ears seek but it's one of the most enjoyable cartridges I... 
Why "Cryo" anything?
I'll do the right thing here and offer an apology for some of my remarks. No, I wasn't serious about the brake offer. It was a response to the alleged requirement that parts must first be tempered to recieve the benefits of cryo. Normally I would ... 
Greatest of the Greatest Hits on Vinyl
Dunno if this qualifies since I think it more of a compilation. Did these guys even have hits? I've never heard them on the radio or seen them on TV except PBS. Still dunno but Asleep At The Wheel's "Texas Gold" is great.

Ray,Back in early February when I got my first treatment I did get mine cut off before it fell out. Back in the late 80's when I was being treated for lymphoma I plugged up every drain in the house. I was smarter this time. Nobody seems to care ab... 
Best Neil Young Album?
One line in Greendale makes it worth the price of admission. "I won't retire but I might retread"..... 
About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone
I thought I'd share a few things with you guys today since I'm taking a break from what should be an easy task. My Safety Raiser needed adjustment after the new cartridge and, man oh man, I'm having trouble. I will persevere! Becaue the ZYX has a ... 
Why "Cryo" anything?
Jordan,I mean no disrespect either. Though this thread was posted under the "tech" section I fail to see why it's scope should be limited as you suggest. The threadhead did not ask to keep replies to known measurements Or whatever other "true" sci... 
Why "Cryo" anything?
This thread is hilarious. The naysayers don't trust their ears! And, it seems that they won't even try to listen. Success of every audio product I know of is dependent upon anecdotal evidence. No matter what the gizzmos that measure things say, if... 
What stole your attention from HiFi?
Pardon me about exploding. I'm sorry. The thing is I just sold it last week and the reason for parting with it sucks. Guys, this was the real deal. Drove it a lot and it was very dependable. As far as hooking up goes I just recreated a Chrysler su...
