| American Made Audio Products @oddiofyl Yes, they sure do a lot of their work right in Binghamton. All of it I would guess. Just for the record though, they do use some parts made in China. I'm not talking about resistors, capacitors etc. Heavier stuff like heat sinks, spea... | |
| Best Basic CD Player (no SACD, USB, etc.) If you want the best bang for the buck, look for an old Harman Kardon HD 7600. The 7400 is pretty much the same but with less features on the remote control etc. Saw a 7600 on EBay a few weeks ago for $175. I've got a 7600 and a 7400. They sound ... | |
| What's the oddest thing in your music collection? I have the Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen version of Hot Rod Lincoln. | |
| Blank audio cassettes ARE still made, even in the United States I bought some new old stock cassettes a few years ago from a few different sellers but didn't have any luck with them. If I had to guess they weren't stored properly. They didn't record well, poor sound quality. I'm not speaking of what you're off... | |

| What's the oddest thing in your music collection? A lot of interesting responses here! @jc4659 I HAD to look up Monty Python's Matching Tie and Handkerchief LP with 3 sides. The interesting explanation from Wikipedia is: "The album's original LP edition is particularly notable in that it was ma... | |
| I can't believe this. The company should be spelled Ta-Scam. | |
| Songs of debauchery and excess @bikeboy52 You’re welcome. That’s one of the many joys of music. It brings up old memories. I never saw Ian Dury and The Blockheads live but that song played a lot on the FM dial back in the day. Being in high school at the time, we adopted it as ... | |
| Songs of debauchery and excess Without question, the song that says it all: Ian Dury and The Blockheads- Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll | |
| Only two tracks to test your system, forever! Led Zeppelin - Anything I grab from the shelf, it's all good Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture (1950's version with commentary & real cannon fire) | |
| Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there? I myself was SHOCKED to hear steel guitars are actually made of wood. Now that's a ripoff! 🎸 | |
| Types of Audiophiles I'm in a category not named, The Conservative. I'm somewhat like The Nostalgic except I'm not disappointed. I bought the best equipment I could afford at an earlier age. It was and is the best sound quality I ever had. I've never had better so how... | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? You're not getting soft edcyn. You're just being real. My whole system cost about $7500 in 1990. Though I recently had everything refurbished, I'm still enjoying it. It's mine, it was the best I could afford at the time, it sounds great to me and ... |
