OCD audio guy naming shady Audiogon dealers by name I can kinda see this guy selling you a nice all Mac system with some Wilsons or Focals, coming out to the house and setting it all up with some nice lamp cord. | |

Speaker massage ... I only had one pair of speakers that changed during break-in. It only took 24 hours. Just playing music the drivers will go through a million cycles in a very short time. | |
Large room acoustics - thoughts on taming echo? How do you kill echo? Kill it at the source, first reflection point. | |
Why should audiophile deniers be allowed on an audiophile forum? Until audiophiles allow or at least accept blind testing, they'll likely never be taken very seriously. Agreed. Audiophiles are already out on somewhat of a limb already but if we were to restrict debate and criticism we may just find ourselve... | |
