| Best Recording of Solo Tambourine The Lemon Pipers had a hit called "Green Tambourine". Although I don't think there is a solo, it still can be heard quite distinctly. | |
| Pet audiophile peeves - name yours My biggest complaint is not having enough "TIME" to enjoy the Hifi system(s). | |
| Please Help How would you grade an antique stereo? Many people place the value of these in the $100-$200 range. If you follow them on ebay you will never see one sell for over $100, and usually more like $50 or less. If you like it, I would just keep it, you will be only be disappointed if you try... | |
| Best sounding cd in your collection I have heard most of the recommendations on here and agree they are all excellent recordings. Thought I would add one that most people probably wouldn't think of, or ever hear. It is Deborah Allen-Delta Dreamland. Overall it is an outstanding reco... | |
| The Best Midrange in the World Right Now A speaker company that has been around for a while called "Fried", pronounced "Freed", has great "lifelike" midrange. At least in the ones I have. | |
| Weirdest Question asked when selling gear? Reading these posts made me laugh because I know they are true. My experience although not exactly gear was similar to some. I had a bunch of Stereophile Magazines for sale on here, for real cheap, like .50 cents or $1 each, I cannot remember exac... | |

| Is my ZeroStat Gun Toast ? Put your finger on the end of the barrel while you are squeezing the trigger, if you get "zapped" it's still good. | |
| Can anyone tell me what happened? Did you disconnect and reconnect any interconnects? I once left and came back to a big noise like that, no smoke though, but both of the interconnects were just the teeny-tiniest amount from being totally inserted and it caused it to go into this ... | |
| Where do you start? Is there any hope? There is always hope. I have a friend who has assembled some really great sounding systems for under $50 from yard/estate sale components. It's not easy, he gets there before anyone, and there are some risks involved, but it can be a avenue, and p... | |
| Textured Black Paint: How do I do it? Those textured finishes you see are provided by powder-coaters. I have gotten a few things done by them over the years. Look in your phone book under powder-coaters, or paint or sheet metal vendors can help you too. A little costly, ours has a $45... | |
| AR Turntable Gallery Pic of the Week I think we have found a host for a new show: "Audio- Makeovers"! John can come over and help me anytime! | |
| Shania Twain Best of... WOW I have always I don't know how it is on CD because I have only heard it on vinyl but the Dixie Chicks-Down Home release sounds pretty good. You might try some Allison Krause if you haven't yet. |
