Amplifiers weight
Get the cheapest lightest amp you like the sound of. :)You mean the sound it makes when it hits the ground? 
Turntable, Two Arms, Stereo and Mono: Is your system ready for 2 phono???
What is this word, "digital"? 
Amplifiers weight
This just in! Exciting news! Amplifier science (like climate science only credible) proves amplifiers fall at the same rate regardless of weight! But- and here's the catch!- only in a vacuum! Which raises the question, how likely are you to be dro... 
A philosophical question.
Oh yeah, same thought has crossed my mind many times. There are brand new records still in the wrapper just sitting on the shelf. Bought for whatever reason but then when there’s time to listen what do I put on? Something I know. Its the same when... 
Just another Orange fuse thread
As Millercarbon stated too many people don’t know how to listen. That  not only applies to music ,their stereos but others as well. When I go to a business meeting with people I am not too familiar with I watch to see who are the talkers and w... 
Tonearm lift
Expressimo, that's the teeter-totter design I was thinking of but couldn't recall the name. Very elegant simple mechanism, you could built it yourself. The trick is its balanced on a lever arm such that the very small sideways force of the arm is ... 
New Santana Album "Africa Speaks"

Broken Nakamichi CA-7A phono
You got a bad phono stage in there. Shipping back for refund is a hassle, but will come to be seen as a lucky break once you find something better for the same or less. Good luck. 
Speakers Don’t Matter As Much As We Think They Do?
They have Wilson’s like that at Definitive Audio, as part of a $1.3M total cost system. Flagship Audio Technica, D’Agostino, etc. Major bling bling. Well there’s a lot of Microserf, Amazealot and Goolag money here in Seattle. So anyway, I have ind... 
What Possessed Me to Do This?
When I remodeled my house I did it a room at a time. So the living room ended up in the family room for a period of time. It was a pain but made more sense to me than hauling it to storage for two weeks and then back. When I remodeled my hou... 
New Santana Album "Africa Speaks"
Orpheus10, apparently not following his own thread asks:"Seriously, no one even thinks to comment on the way a once great talent completely sold out to the dark side? On an audiophile site? Circling the drain, we are."Millercarbon, could you expan... 
All the brands I don't like...
Jokes on you guys. Read the post again. Carefully: All the brands I don't like...In order to save time and energy and contain the fallout I’m just going to start listing all the famous brands of gear I don’t like here. You should all be thanking...
