I picked up a ROKU, I am wanting to cut the Cable TV cord.
Broadcast TV s**ks! All the best shows are only available on the cable/satellite/telecom pipeline! For this you have to pay - and pay! TANSTAAFL!   But look outside! See that cable box junction? Got a nice long piece of wire ...oops, waveguide ... 
Who makes budget speaker cables which are truly “good” or “exceptional” in quality?
RCA 14 ga. works and sounds fine on my KLH Nines and Ohm Sound Cylinders! 
Infinity Kappa 9's sound terrible...HELP
dstechlabs on the Bay has new and improved crossovers for the Kappa 6, 7, 8 and 9. Prices range from $345, 395, 445 and 495 - with free shipping within the lower 48! These address and remedy the below-2 ohms impedance of the stock x-overs. Overall... 
What do you listen to when no one else can hear it
The MC5 "Kick Out The Jams"!!! 
Falling out of love with tubes
Get a First Watt F5! A killer amp by the master Nelson Pass! 25 watts of the BEST class A sound you will ever hear! 
Can I hook up a DCS Puccini player/preamplifier directly to an ARC GS150 ampilifier?

Can I hook up a DCS Puccini player/preamplifier directly to an ARC GS150 ampilifier?
I'll bet it can! And going direct into the amp will eliminate another active stage. This is good! The volume control in the Puccini is high-quality and will work fine! 
Why do my new Transparent cables make my system sound muffled?
Wait until the new Rotel preamp arrives! No sense making a hasty judgment! 
Need some Speakers with sensitivity >90db
How about either the JBL 4312's or the 166's?High sensitivity and work well with low power amps! I have both of these and prefer either over present day gear! 
How does my amp stack up
In the same class sonically as those other preamps! Enjoy! 
2018 exactly what is ‘High End’ audio?
+1 bdp24! Let's just call the "High End" gear that matches the Bentley in the garage - and costs the same! 
Anybody watch the Grammys tonight?
pumper24: I was joking! I know who Bruno Mars is and if I were a teenager I'd be listening to him (and Kendrick Lamar)! My musical tastes tend to the extreme's - The Fall (Hex Induction Hour), Can (Soon Over Babalooma), Peter Brotzman (Machine gun... 
Replace monaural SS radio for talk show
+1 for the classic KLH radio! I listened to that back in 1969-70 while at work when FM rock radio out of NYC was great! 
Can anyone listen to side 1 of Tchaikovsky "1812 Overture"?
A terrible piece of music! Try instead the last movement of Gustav Mahler's Symphony 1. My favorite on LP was the DG Ozawa and the Boston Symphony. 
power cables where do I start?
The gall of the cable swindlers has no limit!
