Is there such a thing as too much power?
@millercarbon Hey I own a 78 911 SC ! Not the fastest car out there, but like you said well designed to use the power that it has all day long! To the extreme I just sold my 96 911 993 Turbo that was modified 600,hp/595 lb of torque That car was a... 
Has anyone painted or refinished their dunlavy spekaers
I used veneersupplies.com for my subs. They have a version with an adhesive backing that makes it as simple as peel and stick. If you are careful you could remove and replace only the lifted area, or anything up to and including refinishing the en... 
HELP! - Need a Repair Recommendation for my Raysonic Amp
Shouldn't overheat merely being left on. If it did, the transformers would be the last to get hot. Transformers don't generate hardly any heat in normal operation. They tend to last pretty much forever. But they are made of coiled wire, which if p... 
Unusual(?) spade connection
Yeah, bi-wire is a bad idea. But the spade thing will work just fine. 
Pass and ARC
Synergistic would be a nice match with those. Don't see an IC right now but the Cable Co usually has some. If you need a PC there is a killer deal on SR Master Couplers https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa24fi-three-synergistic-research-a-c-mast...

Wood refinishing is wood refinishing. It sounds like the veneer is lifting. Where and how much?(You aren't really a fluffer, are you?) 
How Low Can You Go?
Yeah I deleted and decided to go another way precisely because I could see one of the usual suspects completely misinterpreting it, misrepresenting it,and  flat out lying about what was said. MDS. Its a thing. 
How Low Can You Go?
Two sorts of ways of looking at this. The noise floor that is the noise you hear when the volume is turned up, this noise hardly even matters. In my system this noise level is so high you can hear it from the door. Its totally obvious from the swe... 
NYT on Electric Recording Co. vinyl
Yes but unfortunately its five minutes wasted on whatever narrative the NYT wants you to believe.  Its not even good writing. Check it out: "I am often skeptical of claims of vinyl’s superiority, but when listening to one of Electric Recording’s... 
Seems like a lot of folks are putting their Primaluna amps for sale...
Made in China. Better now than when the bottom falls out.  
Is there such a thing as too much power?
Stand by- Krell is currently working on the answer.  Current-ly. Get it? Admittedly not much of a joke. But then neither is this subject. I mean, the idea anyone still thinks power correlates with quality is mildly entertaining.  But its no joke. ... 
New old or old new?
In terms of sound and resale which system would you choose 1 to 5 year old electronics and 35 to 45 year old speakers or vise versa? Been able to think of little else all day now until suddenly it came to me:   In terms of sound I choose the o... 
SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass?
I go back to where a guy on YT did an experiment with the SVS rubber Isolation feet on his sub in sealed mode on a concrete slab and the output was significantly less when measured with a mic. Right. Makes perfect sense. Anything squishy, be it ru... 
I need advice on bi amping
  I am running a pair of re-built Veritas 2.4s. Would bi-wiring them add an appreciable difference? Seriously? No. Here's why.First of all, in order to benefit from bi-amping you need an active crossover that is at least as good as the passive one... 
Soundsmith - Thank you to everyone.
Mind fresh as a daisy, its plain to see.
