| Need Help Ripping My CD Collection I read a review that said Bluesound Vault 2 took 15 minutes to rip an average CD using it's built-in CD drive. Is that right? If so, it would probably take me the better part of a year to rip my CD collection. Can you at least listen to the CD whi... | |

| Axpona audio show. Is it worth seeing(hearing)? droleg,If you are a hi-fi enthusiast, and if it's nearby, I suggest you go and experience an audio show first-hand. Unless you are in the industry, or in a major metro area with lots of hi-end shops, you'll likely never have so much access to so m... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? I’m listening to Radio Paradise (again!) tonight. Honestly, if broadcast radio was this good, I’d have to get a tuner again. Do you guys listen to RP internet radio? It’s friggin’ awesome IMHO. I have my little Raspberry Pi music streamer/renderer... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? @boxer12,I'm truly sorry to hear about your loss of a great friend. Hopefully, sharing a final excellent music experience with him is a memory that will live on with you for a long time..... | |

| break in I just ordered a new phono cable today. Because it's not possible to leave the TT playing 24X7, I paid a few dollars extra for break-in service on a cable cooker. Don't know if it will make any difference, but I felt better spending $10 CAD ($8 US... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? fjn04,I would love to see Beth Hart. I hope she teams up again with Jeff Beck or Joe Bonamassa. Would really like to see that (especially with JB). | |
| Best budget integrated choices portlandlay,I'm sorry to hear that your Sugden A21 died an untimely death. I've been in the hobby for nearly 40 years and I've only had one component die on my watch. It was a USA made tube pre-amp that had just returned from the manufacturer for ... | |
| Best value record cleaner/cleaning system The Spin Clean is inexpensive and effective. It's not cool, or glamorous. But it gets the job done pretty well, for not very much money. | |
