| I think some cables are just a little too expensive. I'm waiting for the $100K speaker cables! Audio Note are you listening? | |
| Need help finding a phono/preamp Schiit Mani phono stage - $130. And a 5K ohm stereo pot connected to your long cables to reach the active KRK speakers. | |
| I think some cables are just a little too expensive. How many pairs will Transparent sell over the next 12 months? Certainly a high-profit item! Just what the well-heeled need to complement their $21K Transparent ICs! | |
| Any ECM fans here? In 1976-77 I went to Record Hunter on 42 and Fifth Avenue NYC twice and bought a total of 50 ECM LPs at $5.99 each. Excellent SQ and fine contemporary jazz! That was for my first high-end system! | |

| Is it a gender disorder? My father said "Turn down that music! It's too loud!" That was the live Creedence Clearwater LP on the KLH 9's! Keep On Chooglin'! Sounded real good loud! | |
| Remember the Ringmat? You should! Ringmat is made of compressed paper. Obviously better damping than a steel mat! Sell that steel mat if you can! | |
| Remember the Ringmat? You should! Rock, paper, scissors, steel. Paper beats steel! | |
| No Improvement With Transparent Reference RCA Interconnects For Naim NDX 2 Streamer "Tuning" ICs! LOL! | |
| No Improvement With Transparent Reference RCA Interconnects For Naim NDX 2 Streamer Too bad you can't walk into that Transparent VP's office and throw those ICs on his desk! |
