| A vote for amber LED lights on components over blue lights. I can’t understand manufacturers still holding on the the blue LED thing? It’s not 1987-The Good Guys store closed decades ago.It reminds me of cheap Chinese audio gear. Note I said "cheap" Chinese audio gear(EVERYONE has something that has a Chin... | |
| How can music be sad? Play major chord vs a minor chord on a piano or guitar.A major chord tends to affect the emotions with a "pleasant" feeling. A minor chord may have you feel the opposite-tense, apprehensive, even sad.There's some science behind why our brain int... | |

| Why is there no love for Prima Luna? "Speaking of Chinese gear... "NO surprise there. Would anyone here be listening to their system regardless of brand, WITHOUT a Chinese connection? DoubtfulMade in USA =assembled with stuff we had to buy offshore, because it's cheaper. | |

| Mono vinyl, how do you know if really single channel mono or if stereo recorded to mono Once I understood and heard what mono is all about, stereo just adds to the "its not real, it's a recording" reality.Now and then, the mix in a stereo LP is believable. I just don't get the thinking-putting vocals on one side? Vocals should be mi... | |
| Mono vinyl, how do you know if really single channel mono or if stereo recorded to mono "Sorry, June Christy, not Julie Christy "lewm-You are referring to Julie London. I bring a 1955 mint mono copy of "Julie is her name" to demos/shows. It's on the Liberty Label. Always catches the attention of anyone in the room. It is a fine exa... | |
| Why is there no love for Prima Luna? jbhiller-Thanks for the link. Looking at the price of those caps, I'd have to think hard before taking the plunge. I have no doubt it takes the PL into the next league.f | |
| Mono vinyl, how do you know if really single channel mono or if stereo recorded to mono Enjoy it. Get some Beatles/Stones mono LP's if you're a fan. It's a breath of fresh air to hear those great songs coming from the center of your speakers instead of L&R.I wish all my LP's were mono. Some mixes are just downright awful.Even on ... | |
| If Nordost won't shorten & terminate it's own speaker cables who can please? Thank you! One thing Nordost will NOT do is shorten cables for convenience.If you purchased used cables that are too long, they will not shorten them.One thing I do question is their claim of "tuned length". I think it's a built in "safety" excuse for such r... | |
| Why do some think "music" (not gear, trading, etc.) is the ultimate end? Great story. It's the actual music that stirs emotions. Not the gear, cables, etc. You do see threads that appear to contradict my opinion though.If it came down to it, I would listen to a clock radio and be fine. I'm grateful having the opportun... | |
