McIntosh MC7200 amp meter lights problem
I have owned a number of various Mc amps, pre-amps and had to replace bulbs in some of the earlier models. But only due to burnout of the bulb. The ceramic/porcelain base was always in tact, this is first time I have ever even heard of this issue.... 
Why do some dealers
I think that sometimes the reps are better salesmen than the dealer

New Forum Format Sucks
Maybe in time we will learn to like it, but why did it need changing?the old format seemed to working fine, maybe they could have added a few enhancements to improve it. I think Audiogon is government owned...the government mentality is "if it ain... 
record storage question
In my opinion, if the wall is insulated you have no worries. The outside wall is where your floor is the strongest and can support the most weight. If the vinyl gets a little cold, I can't see why it would cause any issues in playback. First off w... 
ARC Reference 10 melting polycarbonate cover
Lostbears, sorry for the delay in responding. But, thank you for your response. I have been told that there is a difference, but by a dealer. I appreciate an unbiased experienced response. 
The New Audio Research Reference 6

ARC Reference 10 melting polycarbonate cover
Losbears, you mention not hearing any difference between to poly or metal cover. Have you heard any improvement by not using any cover, or was the heat dissipation your motive? Just curious about my LS26.Thank you

Does anyone else think this
The question about the young, is why do they invest so much in car audio and giant subwoofers? Given time to age and mature, they will grow to love big speakers and amps to drive them. Heck, they may even develop taste in music! 
What is your recommendation on upgrading a Linn LP
I owned an LP12 with an Ekos arm, and the one thing I learned in owning this table is: Tune up. Have it set up by a reputable Linn dealer and he will be the best to make recommendations of what should be done. If you don't have a dealer locally, c... 
recommend good T shaped dipole antenna for FM?
I use the Magnum Dynalab ST 2FM with very good results. I also use the Monster Quad Sheild cable which I believe contributes. But if you want a "T" style, I have made my own in the past from 75ohm cable available at Radio Shack. You can make that ...
