SCAM ALERT ON MULTIPLE CRAIGS LISTS - Watch Out!
Another scam is to get you to send the funds as a family member to save fees. Really its because those transactions are irreversible and with zero buyer protection. Called PayPal fraud on a suspicious case one time, that's what they told me. 
Blown away with 2 speakers hifi sound!
I upgraded my CD player and the sound I am getting from Paradigm Studio 20 speakers is truly amazing! So you upgraded the CD player, and credit the sound to the speakers.I agree. That is truly amazing. 
So I gained a few pounds and that lost love!
Another one, believe it or not, I have actual experience with!When I first discovered BDR Cones the effect was so amazing I started carrying them around trying them everywhere. Including to a party where the stereo was even less than expected- pla... 
What's more important in a difficult room, room correction or higher, clean, power?
I should have clarified my reference to 'power' in that I'm not looking for cleaner AC power but whether my 150 WPC Nova 150, for example, is a better amp/integrated solution than say an amp/integrated that is rated at a lower WPC but has room cor...

What to do with old set of audio equipment?
What you got there, once everything is refurbished back to like new or at least reliably useable, would probably be a pretty cool keepsake. More than likely could be made to look and sound awfully good. What you would do for that is completely dif...

What's more important in a difficult room, room correction or higher, clean, power?
You don't need to take the plunge, and you don't need to ask other people. This is something you are perfectly capable of figuring out for yourself and all by yourself, and you already have everything you need to do it.Plop your sub down somewhere... 
Best Way for my TT to reach my Pre-Amp!?
Think of it this way craigert, electricity is like water. The signal coming out of a component is like the water coming out a pipe. In order for the water to do work, blast off the driveway say, it takes a lot of pressure. That's voltage. But you ...
