What do I do with these Cartridges
Thanks Elizabeth, sounds like they need to stay in the box that I have them sitting in, I'd need to get a Ruby cantiliever on the Dynavector, soundsmith gets $250 plus I'd have shipping both ways and shipping again when I sold the thing. Or if I e...

ULTIMATUM? FORCE?IMPENDING DOOM?SLAVERY? AGGRESSIVE SHOVING?I thought we were just talking about listening to a few tunes. I enjoyed mine last night, all redbook stuff downloaded to my PC. Beats my old CD player... you remember when CD's were DOOM... 
Converting Flac to Wav & Upconversion
Hi Mezmo, I guess I confused you as much as I was confused. I wasn't trying at all to articulate why it would be better, but simply find out if it could be. My experience mirrors yours. Usually I prefer Native resolution playing files, but there w... 
Focus on 24/192 Misguided?.....

Loud thump then whistle.. Speaker is dead
Have you switched speakers from left and right channels to verify that it is indeed a speaker and not an amp channel? 
Pioneer m90 and c90
Beautiful pieces to look at, nice build quality, but what it comes down to, when you compare sound quality at the price, they just won't hold up.... I'm with Slikric3000, I vote no. 
Muse Audio contact?
I'd suggest trying to email Kevin @ HRT.http://www.highresolutiontechnologies.com/ 
My system's high frequencies hurt my ears
If you have had the Mirage's for along time and this has not been bothering you, then you have to look elsewhere... First, I have no idea how old you are, but it isn't abnormal that as we age, Our high frequency rolls off and we become more sensit...
