| Funniest sales pitch Basically any one that indicates they bought it new just two weeks ago only to sell it for 50% less on Audiogon. | |
| REL Q108E, strange review, somewhat confused. I feel this way about most REL subs when I read about them. Then, by accident I heard one (Storm, Strata, I don't remember) compared to the bigger Martin Logan sub (I was comparing speakers, not subs at the time). I was suprised at the differences... | |
| Monster Power vs Panamax Conditioners I have both Monster and Panamax conditioners (a different one in each system). They are a couple of steps below what you are considering. I plug my receiver and amp directly into the wall, everything else into the condidtioners. In this way, they ... | |
| Best way to store LPs? At my house. | |
| Speaker Wires on Carpet Wait! Are you guys serious? If you are, then cable elevators and the like are...are...are....worthless. :--)) | |
| Best transport for redbook and HDCD? Reubent, I traded in my Sony S7700 for an Arcam DV-89 after an A/B comparison with Arcam lower level CDP's. The DV-89 has virtually identical audio sections along with terrific video sections. There are other brands as well who pay close attention... | |

| Please help- Arcam AVR-300 or B&K AVR507 I own the B&K and have other Arcam equipment. I listened to the Arcam recievers and they are a bit more refined sound-wise with a little less power which probably won't make much difference with most speakers. Both companies have good customer... | |
| Need Cabling suggestions I use BEL-the wire I/C's with my B&K equipment. You don't mention what speakers you have. Here's a start. | |

| Hum Problem with Grado Grado's are unshielded cartridges and hum is common. I also use a Grado. My amp has separate gain controls on the back which I adjust down. The hum is still there but only from very close to the speaker not from the listening position. I've also r... | |
| Kudos to Keb Mo & Los Lonely Boys My cousin in So Cal just made and sent me a CD of Los Lonely Boys. They're terrific. It's not likely I'll get to see them cause there's not much call for Mexican rock bands up here in Montana. Maybe if they play "The Gorge". | |
| window near my listening point and excessive bass Try putting some oversized pillows or blankets on the floor in the corners and see if you hear any difference with the bass. This might lead you to purchase official bass traps (or not if they work and you can live with them). I use a body pillow ... | |
| Is this rude? Bigjoe brought it up and Slappy refined it. None of this is about products or the feelings of salespeople. Products will sell themselves or send you on your way somewhere else. This is about the salespersons time to shine as a helpful person. I ma... |
