| What's with the buyers these days?? Ten years ago this site was a great place for hobbyists to by, sell or trade gear. Those days are gon for good. Progress marches on but it ain't always pretty. | |
| DIY Stereo Rack I used slate for mine. If you are looking at stone, slate is about as dead as you can get. The stuff is heavy though so you better have strong help when it's time to move it. Luckily I have a couple of rugged grandsons available. When I built mine... | |
| Sold in one day After reading Oregonpapa's excellent review of his ARC 75SE upgrade experience I took interest in the ad Taters noted. Sold in one day eh? Probably purchased by Wolfgarcia. ;) | |
| Amps that switch on when receiving an audio signal I have an old Harman Kardon amp from the mid 90s that has that option. As for subs, most powered subs offer this option.A while back I bought an amp on ebay (can't remember the brand) that was listed as "dead" for parts only. When it arrived I not... | |
| Best A'gon System Lou, I know which system your talking about but couldn't find it either. As for favorite? That would take some research but it would definitely be one with great pics. | |

| Ref-75-SE delivered ... Oregonpapa, I just went back and reread the entire thread looking for a bit of info and didn't see it. My apologies if I missed it. What speakers are you using? Also, this was a fairly testy thread wasn't it? | |
| Ref-75-SE delivered ... Sorry if I misread your intent Timrhu.TubegrooverNo problem. After rereading my post I can understand your interpretation. To be clear though, I'm 60 and suffer from tinnitus and a loss of high frequency hearing; probably from working around jet a... | |
| Ref-75-SE delivered ... Tubegroover, you miss read the intent of my post. | |
| Ref-75-SE delivered ... I've been in this hobby since the 1960's, a record collector since the 1950's and a devout music lover since the 1940's ... capacitors, resistors, slew rates and tube biasing be damned. *lol*Take care ... and happy listening.OregonpapaThis puts yo... | |
| Rotel DAC You also need to list the complete system.Zd542 How the heck would listing the complete system help in this situation? He asked sarcastically.Here's my suggestion if the dac truly is at fault: used on ebay.No idea who the seller is but probably ch... | |
