| buyer beware of late It's sad that these jerks are trying to sabotage this site. I have had many transactions with Audiogon members without a single problem. | |
| Why do new cables needs to be "broken" ??? First off let me say, I have no idea why cables need break-in nor I have I ever heard a satisfactory explanation for the phenomenon. Many here dismiss the phenomenon as non-existant because it can't be explained. There are many phenomenon whose ex... | |

| A trick with Scotch Whisky Mimberman,Had a bottle of 25 Talisker. UNBELIEVABLE!. Unfortunately, it's all gone. Read: Sad Lament!As for the original post: I find the thought of liquid smoke extremely distasteful and nasty. You should be ashamed of yourself. Now go stand in t... | |
| Why are CDs so hard to open? If you use the Goo-Gone, do it outside. That's some nasty stuff. I wouldn't want little kids breathing it. It does work though. If some residue remains on the plastic try picking it off with a piece of the tape you've already removed. Usually work... | |

| a great take on big$ cables If I've decided there's do difference in cables (my dogma) and I'm stubborn enough, I'll probably never hear any difference in cables. That doesn't necessarily mean there is no difference. It just means that I refuse to hear them. That's fine, wha... | |
| Could some one explain how to buy best cables? A few things to remember. 1. Anyone can build a cable (no credentials of any kind required). 2.
