Be careful with this stuff. I had removed all of it from my Audio system connectors long ago because I did not like how it masked the sound.I think, after a few months the painted paste loses its moisture and becomes a dry mess.Recently, I was los...

Killing BluRay, new Oppo BR 83
Macdadtexas , So you were able to download a 720p video and standard audio from the internet in 30 minutes. Big Deal.Thats not Blu Ray quality!!I am still going to rent Blu Ray discs and play them in full 1080P and fantastic surround sound on my O...

Eggleston Andra IIIs at CES
