Good Product or Nonsense?
I make molds for resin casting. I spray mold release in the mold to keep the parts from sticking and tearing up my molds therefore extending the mold's usage. I have always been told to wash the resin parts with warm soapy water before prep and pa...

and Maggie is the only lady I can listen to without wanting to get up and leave the room....right Carol, Betty, Janice, Erica, etc!!?? ;-) I'm smiling and hope you can too. Party on brothers!  
What's Your Favorite Vinyl That Never Made It To CD or Digital?
Buckingham Nicks. Would like to see an authentic release of this great LP on CD without it being bootlegged  
Why is most everything remastered?
You are right Voodoo....I bought the Ebbetts MFSL to CD box set and I bought 3 of the new Giles Martin remasters. I compared the same 3 CDs of each version over a period of time and conclude that the "redbox" (I guess that term means regular every... 
The panic selling of tube audio had begun.
@larsman Yes "meat"...not "me". Yet in today’s world "me" seems more appropriate. I guess back in the day that is what I heard in my lower fidelity system. :-) ....and/or I am getting old and memory fails me? I’ll have to fact check myself in th...

Must be I am an insomniophile....fell asleep and just dream in high fidelity  
What is an audiophile? Are you an audiophile?
Sometimes, though having gone to bed, I can’t sleep for hours just thinking of the way I was moved by the music I just experienced for the last hour or 2 or 3. Didn’t think of the equipment just the joy.  
Is there any one piece of vintage gear you most wished you owned?
STAX CP-Y and ECP-1. Loved the line input phono set up. ....oh and the audiogirl in the OPs profile photo? ;)  
Magnepan and Bob Carver Raven amps
I am in a 15X21 room. They can fill the room without problem. (VTLs rated about 300 watts each) When I am dead and my hands are cold you can pry them away. Now my ears may still be alive...so be careful! :)

I run VTL 300s with my 3.7s. More than enough power and sound is wonderful  
What is it I'm failing to grasp?
I’ll clarify. I would not have gone out and bought the remaster version either. I never read a review. I had the studio LP for years and maybe played it once. Not my cup of tea as they would say. It was a gift from a friend. I put it on to see how... 
What is it I'm failing to grasp?
Though I am not a huge Harrison fan I like all things Beatles and from "the Inner Light" the farther one travels the less one knows is appropriate here. I put in dedicated lines to all of my equipment only to find through reading posts that is not...
