Does anyone have a good or bad experience using a PC server rack for audio equipment?
If vibration becomes an issue, you can always add something like the IsoAcoustics Gaia's to support the entire rack. Most racks come with threaded feet, so it is just a matter of replacing them with the weight-appropriate Gaia's. If the threads do... 
Pro re-design limited edition 3D power cord
No offence, but how is the reader supposed to know who "Rick" is? I finally figured out that it is Rick Schultz, the chief designer and owner of High Fidelity Cables, but why make it so difficult?

Upgrade Digital Cable Review
@timkeough1964 "Wow! Those $700 cables really change those 1's and 0's! They add such color and clarity. With just a hint a timber to the mids  and an open and airy humongous sound stage." If this previous comment by yourself is true, I am not s... 
If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it?
@hilde45 "Ah, so it's just their present state of development, and you have no objection to AI in principle -- it's just not good enough. I feel the same way about butter substitutes, but not about art." Why would I object to AI until it has don... 
If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it?
Very interesting question. On the whole, if the music moves me, then I would probably listen to it and I wouldn't boycott Qobuz if it was part of their music library. However, when it comes to replacing actual musicians, that's where the issues ...

Grounded Speaker Cable
I can't find any reference to an Audio Envy SP14 speaker cable with ground. Is there a link?  
Time to change
If you are looking to purchase a new TV, I would highly recommend you take a look at the  LG OLED55C2PUA. Fabulous picture quality. Regarding your "decluttering" your components. I would perhaps ask that question at a home theatre specific forum ...

1990 Radio Shack catalog
I was surprised to see Hilary Clinton on the cover. Who knew?  
VICTORFABIUS' Sales Here Are Scams
So, why are you still using the name "victorfabius1"? Wouldn't it just be easier to distance yourself from possible ramifications.  
Changing a speaker color
I would also recommend doing the vinyl wrap. Similar to what they do with vehicles. It is very durable, has no problem being applied to a high gloss surface and can be removed if circumstances change. Added bonus is that you can literally any su... 
Comparison of various subwoofers for 2 channel audio
I use 4 subs in a distributed bass array (swarm) and have never had better low frequency reproduction. From what I have read, the integration of the subs is more a result of the interface/crossover and less about the brand of sub used. I have 3 R... 
Eversolo A6/A8
If you are potentially buying a product that will have problems and also have substandard service, why not just switch to a streamer that has a long history of quality and service. They also don't have the quirky software and interface that many E...
