| Recording vinyl woes Do a search on Amazon for Music CD-R. There are some of them there. ebay has a lot of them. It appears that Maxell is still making them. | |
| OCD audio guy naming shady Audiogon dealers by name If this guy thinks he can determine the sound he’s going to get from the equipment he takes home by how the store he buys it from looks, he’s in for a surprise. GHT may be a great dealer, but there are many great dealers operating out of less lux... | |
| New to computer audio The Nucleus does not have an internal DAC so you'll need a separate DAC to play music. If you have a Cd player that has a USB Digital Input, that should work. The roon app has a volume control so you can go direct to your amp but you may find t... | |
