| Will audio gear be ok in unheated house I let my equipment, including tubes, get down to around 55 degrees fahrenheit in the colder months of the mid-lower South. If in the higher North, I'm not sure I would trust in house temps in the 20s. Friends have a camp in Adirondacks that is clo... | |
| Benchmark or McIntosh.... I love my Mac gear but not sure you need more Mac with 7 subs. Never personally heard Benchmark but the discussions here about that line have usually been positive | |

| Help us build our playlist for our next show in November! Amen on Goose. Those boys can jam. A great studio track is Andrew Gold's Lonely Boy. So crisp on vinyl. | |
| Jay's "Ugly Truth" video I have not a piece of equipment in 4 years. However, I found some of his discussion enlightening and prompted some self-reflection. | |
| What was your first record? I think my first was ELO "Discovery" . Hard to remember that far back. Could have been Queen "The Game" but I think it was ELO. | |
| Costliest Brainfart After a 6 pack of IPAs, I tried to clean a small tuft of dust off of my stylus with a can compressed air with the small tube still connected to the can of compressed air. I thought it would work best if I pointed the contraption of doom right at t... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? I bought on a whim Patti Smith Group "Wave". I am blown away by it. Spectacular doesn't do it justice. What a great recording. Does she do better than this LP? | |
| Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem?? This is not limited to technology. I brought my Stihl leaf blower in for servicing to the store from where I bought it. They said sure, you can leave it and pick it up in 6 months. I asked if I could discuss my problem with one of the repair peopl... | |
| Why Can't Modern Tube Manufacturers Make a Proper Tube? Tony, I believe your thesis is incorrect in regards to my situation. It may be true in regards to others. I recently (3 years ago) replaced 18 year old Gold Lion KT-88s and ax-7s with the same. Flawless replacements. I'm positive they were not N... | |
| Stephen Stills Both are fantastic in their own rights. Let's not take away from the fact both probably rank in the top 5% of performers. But you can not overlook "The Last Trip from Tulsa", by Neil. In my mind, it gives him the edge. Just an eerily wonderful per... | |
| Curious to know what you guys think/like about Pink Floyd's early work Syd would love these posts. Mostly insane with slight touch of reality! | |
| So you just took a gummie...What song is on the menu? The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars | |
