| Your favorite 'concept' album Curious as to how folks define “Concept”. | |
| What's the best and/or favorite piece of equipment you've owned? And do you still own it? Without a doubt it was my McIntosh Power Controller. I couldn't believe what a difference it made. Don't expect I will ever get rid of that thing, unless there is no room for it in the retirement home. | |
| Negotiate good price Anybody that kicks you out of the room because somebody else wants to get in there doesn't deserve your money. No reason you couldn't listen along with the other prospective customer. If they are interested in a sale, treat you as a sale, today ... | |
| Stupid Mistake Am I the only one that realized the MC just contradicted himself from one of his posts I read three minutes ago that appeared in my inbox about "Amplifier Warm UP"? | |
| Mixing & Matching Components @mahler123I think you are on to an interesting conversation. Specific manufactures' components may be more inclined to be better integrated with each other than other manufacturers. Some manufactures are known for quality components no matter wh... | |
| Mixing & Matching Components @jtcf @russ69 Thanks to you both. Appreciate your thinking and perspectives. I must admit that I almost have a fear that if I start trying other flavors out there, I may like them! I retired in January and I’m moving into the “fixed income” pur... | |

| I think I over treated my room. I can't hear anything. Thanks - Interesting post. | |

| Lumin U1 vs. Sonore SE Very Cool. Thanks for the reply. I'm anxious to hear your outcome. My Sonore SE Optical is still at my dealer's. He is demo-ing it on a system, which is fine. That is also breaking it in for me. I'm not ready to do all the cabling and reconf... | |
| Speakers which always sound good Sonus Faber has a couple of new lines at different price points and sizes. All beautifully crated. I’ve owned three of them and think of them as part finely crafted furniture. | |
| Try to train them...again, or simply shoot them? Ever since High School I have had a rule to not let my LPs out of my possession.I was at a used Record Store some time ago and the guy was "polishing" CD's playable side with a machine that looked like the what you use to buff out your shoes. A s... | |
| Upgrade DAC recommendation McIntosh D1100 would be an awesome addition | |
| I was going to give my son a system, with brand new Solid Steel rack but he has AirPods??? My daughter just started graduate school, and moved in with the Boyfriend. I gave them a McIntosh RS100 for their new apartment. They love it. Can't wait to show up and hear it. Obviously better than an Amazon Echo! Plus, now they are a proud... | |
| Your most indispensable "tweak"? Upgrading my Power Conditioner from the Niagara 1200 was a huge leap for me. |
