| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? @tomic601 I'm in the frozen Northern part of Flyoverlandia. A double blind bartender.... now that's some real scientific experimentation. Results are inconclusive, we'll try again tomorrow... Cheers! Illegitimati non carborundum | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? I'm a DIY guy out of financial necessity. I make my cables, out of the best Beldon or Cardas I can afford, with the best hardware I can put my hands on. I freely admit I have copied commercial maker's designs. I have recapped both of my Kenwood KD... | |
| "Hardly Used / Less than 100 Hours / Took out for pics only"???? What ever happened to "Rode hard and put away wet?" truth in advertising is an oxymoron. | |
| Bose 901 Series V Questions I got to be on a first name basis with the apartment manager and a few of the local constabulary with introductions handled by a pair of 901's. They were hung from the ceiling in the reflex position. As I recall the Bose pre ran through an SAE 210... | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? Yup. Civility is dead. Several months ago I read a comment, or a post, from an audiophile even older that I am, who was wondering how to re calibrate suggested stylus force numbers to "wet". Man oh man, did the flamers come out. If it hadn't been ... | |
| Table,cartridge,phono...where to put most of my money? I'm in the stick with digital camp. I am of that generation that came up with vinyl and tape. Digital sounds a little harsh to me, yet I have CD's out the ying yang. I do stream a little; mostly to audition music I would like to own. I wonder some... | |
| Any other Pipe And Slippers Audiophiles out there? I'm more of a sweat pants, flannel shirt and loose laced tenny runners guy | |
| Aggrivated tinnitus from speakers? I also have tinnitus, here's my path...I do listen to one or more of my systems most of my non at work life. First thing was adjusting my expectations regarding "perfection" and I recalibrated my Enjoyment Meter (too many of us think a thing is th... | |

| Has anyboyd used this amp, your thoughts on it according to Glow's web site they will no longer sell amplifiers after stock on hand is exhausted. they want to focus on the speakers..... :( | |
| What to expect if I import an amp and preamp from a Japan seller via US eBay A quick google search will get you to the Official U.S. Customs lists for Japan. I didn't look for amplifiers, I researched turn tables. It turns out that turntables/record players (and associated parts, like tone arms--- I bought a tonearm from J... | |
| help choosing a turn table I vote, again, for the Orbit Theory. It's made in the USA with USA components. Solid wood plinth, cast magnesium arm, simple and accessible electronic speed control (33 & 45) and on/ off switch which has great knob feel. Three (easy to level, ... | |
| Prima Luna Vs Accupahse You are building your system like I am building mine. One piece at a time, when and where I can afford... I have an idea of where I would like to end up, but I have to compromise much along the way. If these two amps are local, maybe you can audit... | |
| Does a particular musician’s songwriting and artistry speak to you above all others? John Prine, Gordon Lightfoot, Neil Young, Joni Mitchel, Bob Dylan, Carol King, Phoebe Snow, Gene Clark, Jerry Jeff Walker, Lowell George, Bruce Cockburn, Janice Ian, and on and on. I admire singer/songwriters. I am jealous of their gift, their tal... | |
