Mapman, I thought everyone knew I was now a reviewer. On Audioasylum you have to register as a reviewer, but not on Audiogon. I here of late have put a good deal of money into my system because I really could not do without what I was buying. Of c...

Mcondon, Jazzonthehudson, Czarivey, and, of course, Mapman, why do you bother posting here? Are you guys self-appointed snakeoil police? If you guys think those of us buying the HFCs enjoy their expense or that we seek the awe of those coming to o... 
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
Rdiiorio, KLH 9 for 42 years! Any repairs? I replaced mine with Infinity ServoStatics. I doubt if many of them can even be found working or not.

4orreal, I received a call from Miguel right after I posted this who clarified what he was saying. Initially, I thought he was talking about the Thor grounding wire from the Signature to the house ground. I did not know his power cords had a groun... 
Cable Costs Relative to System
I really think this is an obsolete thread. I well remember giving little or no consideration to cabling, isolation, ac filtering, racks, or how clean the records were. I also remember having about $2000 in my entire system, including my expensive ...

What is the best phono preamp you have heard?

What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Schubert,Yes they do work. They also work negatively, namely such as saying, this mediciNe will make you sick would increase those who reported being sick. The scientific method is a faith, but it also requires "proof" to peers. God seldom confirm...

What is the best phono preamp you have heard?
Jafox, the Koda is a line stage and the MCCI is a phono stage. I have always thought the BMC MCCI was their best piece. It may have been a coincidence that the Koda blosomed just when I put the HFC URR on it, but I'm not taking it off to check thi...
