most annoying neighbor?
My old neighbors were priceless.Off to work at 3:30 AM - Turn car on, drive it up to my bedroom window, let idle, get out for coffee and leave 20 minutes later.He'd restore old tractors and let them idle. For hours. And hours. And hours, my whole ... 
New Rotel Class D Power Amps
Mapman,While I don't want to get into a "better" or "worse" argument, I found the lower power Rotel class D to be more to my tastes than the CIA D200s. With my system (room, ears etc) The Rotel was livelier with more immediacy and helped bring my ... 
Tonearms without anti-skate, damage to records?
Lately I've just given up with AS altogether on my Project Perspective Carbon. I just can't stand the sight of that weight swinging back and forth, knowing it's attached directly to the tonearm.It has always sounded better without the AS weight at... 
Why does New York radio station sond so good?
While I do enjoy 96.3, I think that 93.9 (NPR station, music starts after 7 PM - Check out "New Sounds" program after 11 for tremandous variety of great music) sounds even better. More "Row F" than the "Row N" sound of 96.3, to me. Can't begin to ... 
Whats the best record cleaning fluid?
Dumb question, but where do you think the dirt from the record goes?Into the brush which then requires cleaning itself?Or is the dirt removed by the RCM vacuum action?Or another way, is the RCM more of a cleaner or a dryer?I'm open to percentages ... 
Vr4jr's and sub
I've been thinking of subs as well for my VSR VR4JRs.Although I probably don't need more bass at loud volumes, I think the ability to use subs as a tone control (since I don't have one on my pre) at lower volume is attractive.And while the JRs do ... 
SoundCity Speaker Outriggers
To add nothing of value to your post, I'll agree that these look like quality products, and at a reasonable price. Been thinking of adding to a Velodyne subwoofer but I think I'd need to get the drill out. 
Speltz Anti Cables
Just ordered some bulk speaker cable to try out. My monoblocks are close to my speakers, so it'll cost me about $9 per side to biwire. 
Record Cleaning Machine Fluid
Was RRL purchased by MFSL?I just searched in MusicDirect for RRL products and it looks like MFSL is either rebadging or now owns RRL.Any information on this?-Thanks 
What music is your system setup for?
Just for fun I put on some of my teenager's pop music on my system, and it was very shrill and nasty sounding. If this was the primry music I listen to, I would not have the eqipment and overall balance that I have now. So I think that yes, the ch... 
Anybody play any musical instruments...........
Drums, although I haven't played with anyone for years. Just play with myself.I think that with drums, it's harder to keep up the interest than with instruments that cover a wider range of emotion. (Sorry, but when drummers jam, they rarely want t... 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
Huge MotoGP fan here, and I do like Nicky. Not always the fastest on a single lap, but mature for his age on and off the track.I too have grown weary of watching Suzuki's dust the field in AMA.My celebrity claim to fame: My neighbor (Anthony Fania... 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
Boa2,Do NOT answer "It's not the motorcycle" 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
Tboooe,Re Isle of Man TT - I used to work w/ a Brit who told me that they have "Mad Sunday" there, where they leave the "track" open and let anyone out on it!Don't know if that's still (or ever was) true but can you imagine??!!'98 VFR800 
Speaker disappearing act?
I think that for many of us, the goal we set for our equipment is to have it sound as little like equipment as possible. A speaker calling attention to itself by saying "Yo, I'm right here, dummy" will surely be perceived as a mechanical piece of ...
