| Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark Well noted @mashif; having spent a significant portion of my career on supply chain technology I would further note that no one culture or region has a monopoly on technology or quality. While TQM (total quality management) concepts have their ori... | |
| Beware poor sounding media Another agreement; I have purchased new vinyl that was either physically flawed or reflective of a mediocre mix. Other than QA flaws, some pressings are just better than others; hence the genesis of Betterecords.com. My first reaction was who’d p... | |
| Why are people paying these stupid tube prices? Free market capitalism without government price regulation and the individual freedom to purchase, not purchase or find an alternative. Its all good man (Better Call Saul). Vendors should price at what market will allow (that is real price). Apo... | |
| Best audiophile earwax removal system? Local hearing specialist charges $99, it only takes about 5-10min with safe equipment and an expert tech. No pain and great results. Never thought it was necessary, but glad I did it. Probably not something needed more than once a year or so. | |
| Thinking Hybrid Integrated. McIntosh MA352; after one year it just gets better and better | |
| Placement of AMP and Turntable in-between speakers I agree with all; not just to agree, but it all makes sense. So much depends on the room size, type of equipment, room treatments; maybe even type of music. About a year ago I bought 30min from Jim Smith (Get Better Sound). Nicest man ever; he ... | |
| Does Formula 1 racing and high end audio go together for anyone else? Thanks for posting the question; yes it does! I watch F1 on my AV system which is separate from my 2 channel. Nothing like cranking it up at the start of the race! I had the chance to finally get to the USGP at COTA last year in Austin TX; whil... | |
| Intergrated Amp suggestions for B&W 805d4 2nd on the McIntosh MA352. Have tried it with B&W towers and the Mac brings out the best in them. | |
| Let me explain something to you jive turkeys. Peace ✌ Love and Rock & Roll | |
| Turntable - The Next Step Why not stay in the Musical Surroundings family? Clearaudio Concept or Innovations and Hana SH or SL cart. Your excellent Phenomena II will handle MC or MM; I'd go MC. These MS components are designed integrate together very well. | |
| Isolation Feet for Laptop Peace, love, rock&roll and vibro pods. 😉 | |
| Whole new world Just before making even more audio investments I had my hearing tested at Costco hearing aid center (it's free). Not a bad exercise; I'm normal for age; I guess Led Zeppelin in my teens did less damage than I thought. Hearing technician did sug... | |
| Another Subwoofer Cable Topic Apologies if not reading your question correctly; I'm using two subs. My IA has left and right sub RCA outputs. Each sub has L and R RCA inputs. I'm simply running the L IA output to the L input on one sub and the R IA output to the R input on t... | |
| Inflation Let's see: Demand-Pull Inflation or Cost-Push Inflation or M*V=P*T (if you know you know). Why are we on this topic? Yes, @noske, the FEDs are top economists in the country and recent inflation cycles don't comply with our daily existence. But... | |
| Inflation As Economics Prof would say, "inflation is neither good or bad; you need just enough and not too much." BTW, inflation is managed through the Fed, not the WH (but that's already been pointed out). |
