| Buying large audio equipment Maybe off topic....but what makes some of this stuff so heavy? My speakers weigh 130 pounds each with metal bases attached. I understand that...large magnets, lots of structural stuff to keep them rigid etc. But, my amp (250wpc Madrigal Proceed HP... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? tdimler, a friend of mine saw Dylan in the early 90s. Said the same thing. | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Saw The Struts last night at a small 1000 person venue last night. They are a newish glam/pop band in the Queen mode. Incredible concert. Very tight playing, superb vocals. Totally engaged with the audience. Crowd in a frenzy all night. I was exha... | |

| Mac Mini as a music server Sorry about the double posts. Audiogon has been functioning poorly for about a week now. Can't even delete the duplicate. Audiogon needs to fix the mess. | |
| Mac Mini as a music server No experience with the Mac Mini but I recently put together a low budget system with a 10+ year old iMac. I'm currently using just iTunes because I could not hear a significant difference between that and iTunes with BitPerfect or Audirvana. This ... | |
| Best building material for vibration free shelving I still think of myself as an audiophile outsider, so its easy to poke fun looking from the outside in. I've got other hobbies about which I obsess and that likely seem silly to others so I get both sides. | |

| I am a "Moron" boxer12 said:"I like handling vinyl. I'm kind of sick that way..."I thought that was the whole point of vinyl, the ritual, the participation, fussing over stuff, measuring, balancing and aligning, up and down between sides, paying 4 times as much ... | |
| Does this image give you claustrophobia? tomcarr said:"Looking at it makes me think I'd rather spend the money on a Porsche 911 GT3-RS."Yep. Active participation and beautiful SQ too! | |
| Does this image give you claustrophobia? Heat load? I'm sure there is a cooling room behind all that...generating perfect temp and humidity.teo_audio: I think you might be right about written communication....but I do not believe it is ultimately a flaw of words. No, words are not suffic... | |
| Best building material for vibration free shelving skyscraper, I was poking fun....at us...there have already been assertions that over damping causes some undesirable sonic qualities....why not over draining? Surely the concept would make room for another new and hopefully expensive and exotic pr... | |
| Underrated album: Sonics AND Music Walk around your workplace and find someone who can name a song from "Two Against Nature" or even the album for that matter, spin the radio dial all day long and see if you hear a song from the album, ask any earbud wearing millenial if they've ev... | |
| Does this image give you claustrophobia? Audiophiles are nuts. How can you expect half decent SQ from anything less than pictured?George Carlin once said something to this effect: Anyone driving slower than you is an a--hole and anyone driving faster than you is an idiot.This seems like ... | |
| Best building material for vibration free shelving Don't we have to be careful about over draining? |
