Technics 1200G - clamp record weight or no record weight?
I've tried with and without clamping using a VPI clamp on my 1200GR and can't tell the difference. For this reason I say no clamp. BUT, I also use a Herbies mat that could offset the sonics of the stock rubber mat if used with clamp, which combina... 
Headphones? I could use your experience/thoughts.
I have a pair of Grado SR80e Prestige Series ($99 from Amazon) and I really like the sound, good idea to replace the pads with the thicker version. 
Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
sleepwalker: you may have missed my point. I was referring to directionality. The reciprocation of engine pistons was my analog not for break-in but for electrons; there is no net current flow of electrons in a wire propogating a musical, or alter...
