Six Degrees of Separation
The six degrees of Kevin Bacon holds that we are all no more than six degrees. Plenty of us are less. Kevin Bacon after all is Kevin Bacon and so zero degrees for him. This pretty much proves the theory right there.  
Thank you millercarbon
you can't consider it a reading comprehension test when nothing is read. Good point.  
Thank you millercarbon
Way up towards the top of the page I posted review excerpts translated into English. Literally the first sentence of the review explains the name, that M101 is the Pinwheel Galaxy, etc. Literally every day around here is a reading comprehension te... 
An excellent paper on routing cables to avoid interaction and noise injection.
Or you could just keep them all a few inches apart, and at 90 when this isn't possible.  There. Now THAT was a pretty easy read!😂

What's the most overrated or overpriced piece of equipment you own, have owned or come by?
Fortunately this is the one thread where getting something wrong is allowed. We had it created special for this purpose. All other threads require absolute fidelity to the truth. You will be banished for life to ASR for even the slightest infracti... 
How does a REL subwoofer add dimensionality and depth to a sound system?
It's nothing to do with REL, and all REL does with stuff like this is reinforce the perception of being first and foremost aggressive marketing driven.  The pertinent question is how does really good deep bass reinforce the perception of dimensio... 
Would you sell for cash?
The Fed is not our country. The Fed is not our government. The Fed is a privately held central bank, and belongs to the BIS, the central bank of central banks, based in Basel. Not even based in the US. These are all easily verifiable facts. Maybe ...

There is something related to age, don't know the reason why yet, but a lot of stuff that younger ears take as detail we find increasingly annoying, fatiguing, sometimes even painful. Fortunately the same things that improve sound quality also imp... 
Would you sell for cash?
teo_audio: MC is right though. the fed is a private company run by faceless oligarchs who’s names you don’t know. they literally give a handful of nothing to the treasury and when the treasury reaches for it, it becomes ’real’ in the form of YOU... 
House Wiring Does Make a Difference!
Going from grit and glare to liquid natural is classic result for what you did. My system AC has been changed/modified/tweaked over the years half a dozen ways at least. Out of all of those the biggest for the cost was the first one, eliminating t... 
Something Millercarbon has preached Be A Better Listener. Do not get mired in data.
We will. Count on it.  
Would you sell for cash?
Cash is a euphemism for Federal Reserve Notes. FRN are created from nothing and loaned into existence. That is why it says right on the face, Federal Reserve NOTE. A note is a loan, an IOU. Long ago this made sense, the note was redeemable for gol... 
Is there any merit to assembling a same stack system to achieve excellent performance?
A lot of what audiophiles think of as settled and proven turns out to be bunk. System matching is one of the more frequently misunderstood. When you go looking for a component it should be with a clean slate. Unfortunately sometimes you may find y... 
Thank you millercarbon
Thanks Lubos, appreciate it. Always happy to help. There was a dealer Stewart Marcantoni who helped and mentored me back when I was getting started, and helped Caelin Gabriel back when he was building his first Shunyata power cords. Lucky me, to b...
