What are the odds......
“I guess it’s safe to say when the odds are against you luck or chance alone will not suffice.“You conveniently missed the point again. Stop telling me what I think and say. Worry about yourself Mr. Libertarian. If you must at least try to get by ... 
What are the odds......
MC you selectively quoted me to make your point omitting where I asserted that chance or luck alone is not enough. So we agree on that, I think.  
Crosley should be arrested for selling junk
Just to be clear Crosley merely makes junk turntables.  Other people buy and sell it.   
What are the odds......

What sends shivers down your spine when you play it on your system?

Can flexible power cables sound good?
The next power cord I buy will be a nice one that also stays seated in my preamp easily with no special fuss.  The stock cord does that well.  Shouldn’t be too much to ask for I hope.

KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
Played “The Knife” off the Genesis album “Trespass” yesterday. An original CD mastering streamed off my music server. This is a cut I know well and have heard many times over the years with widely varying sonic results. It was most impressive on t... 
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
The Metas have been up and running for a few weeks now so a quick update. Initially I left the sub settings alone. Same as with prior ls50s. I started to notice a bit too much in the bass in the last week or so so apparently that settled in furthe...
