I agree with you Spencer, good idea.Audiogon has made many improvements to the new format based on member recommendations, I hope they can incorporate your suggestion. 
Acoustic zen hologram 2 with spades
They appear to be made to work with both 1/4-inch posts and with 5/16-inch posts.Are you sure they do not fit, even at the end where the opening is larger?AZ can reterminate them if you are not comfortable doing it yourself.if you want to hear the... 
Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
"There are many reasons a test can yield negative results so one must take results from any test with a grain of salt."  Agreed but, OTOH, many things we live with are subjected to testing from structural materials tests to make sure building mate... 
Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
Oregonpapa,I have been doing this for a long time too. I will not presume to tell you what you hear, no more than you can tell me what I hear, or don’t hear.Comparing whether one believes in the sonic improvement of a fuse with whether one believe... 
Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
Why, it's as if just bringing up the subject of controlled blind testing is supposed to scare the fuse affectionados into submission.Don't be scared Geoff, defender of all things unexplainable.  This fuse issue has been discussed ad nauseam.   W... 
Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
Lol Your test procedure is even more complicated than The Amazing Randi’s Million Dollar Challenge test procedure and that’s saying something. If you’re so high on your test why not do it yourself? Let us know how it works out. Now I understand... 
Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
Much discussion here about trusting your ears and how science cannot explain everything and yet, I am skeptical about the level of sonic difference (if any) that can be attributed to changing a fuse.   I am exponentially more skeptical about tho... 
What happened to the "club atmosphere" of Audiogon?
The sky is not falling....Blaming this site and/or the moderators for a perceived deterioration of the culture, or sense of community, here is IMO simply a cop-out...Audiogon has not victimized anyone.   A culture is made from the behaviors, be... 
QUALITY AND SECURITY OF "LITTELFUSE" PRODUCTS
I recently used the money I have saved on audiophile fuses, cables and other mysterious tweaks to purchase new amplifiers.  I do actually notice a difference in the sound between my other amplifier and the new amplifiers. 
Whats playing on your system today?
Going to see Robin Trower in concert in a few weeks.  Good to hear you liked his new album.   Thanks for sharing your RT comments, now I am really looking forward to it.   
Where do you guys buy tubes?
I have purchased from  Andy Bouwman at Vintage Tube Services, Jim McShane and Tube Depot.  All three provided excellent service.  That said, I just picked up 4 Amperex 7308s from a seller on ebay (Elderly Electronics in OK) and both the seller an... 
Dedicated Line(s), One Line or Two?
I agree with lowrider57, listen first and then, if it sounds good, simply enjoy.Had you asked before doing the work, I would have suggested installing 3 lines at 20A each or, if total available amperage was a problem, then 2 lines at 15A (for amps... 
theta prometheus vs veritas monoblock
No responses?Curious to hear from anyone who has compared the Prometheus directly with Merrill's Veritas or with the Acoustic Imagery Atsahs....or with the Mola Mola Kaluga for that matter. Thanks. 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
"OK, try this one......remove the "red fuse" and bridge out he the fuse holder with some copper wire," "I tried this with a pure silver fuse replica that was highly polished. After A*B-ing a few times... my conclusion was... the SR black fuse was ...
