@oddiofyl  "Will the folks that support 432 EVO be around in a year or two?    " Doesn't matter. The spiel changes to suit the inventory.  
Why can’t “Side A” and “Side B” be a bigger font?!?!
@larsman  I spent 50+ years listening to records and although I do agree with there being a decision by the artist/producer regarding the sequencing of the songs on an individual record side, I don't think that they think of a record as having a ...

@roxy54  I don't think common courtesy and respect for the dead is either silly or superstitious. Would you tell the bride at a wedding that her dress is ugly?

Sorry to hear. RIP Mr. Kihn

Although the majority of records don't technically have a "first side" and a "second side", there are certainly some that do, such as symphonies and operas. You could buy small adhesive coloured dots and place one on the first side.  
Jack Russell
@roxy54  It's an opinion when he is still alive. It's not, when he just passed.

@roxy54  I don't know what possesses someone to insult a person that just lost his life. You could just ignore the post, but you preferred to make a snide remark and offer insincere condolences. Truly baffling.  
Subwoofer Advice
Just my 2 cents, but placing the subs next to the Martin Logan mains may not solve your bass issues. If the lack of bass is caused by where the mains are positioned within the room, then adding subs may do little or nothing to help.  
Audiogon seller's question
@inagroove  "too many uninformed/misinformed folks with political agendas spread their BS" Sad but true.   
Creativity on artists I dislike
@judsauce  Yes, these days we do need a good laugh, but I think there is always a line that we shouldn't cross. Maybe I am just getting old, but once we lose our sense of what is right or wrong, what do we have left?

When I read the OP's post and then the responses, I thought I had been redirected to some juvenile Reddit site. Queer? Yankadick? Christina Uglyera? The Bestiality Boys? Where are the moderators when you need them.        
Deals Gone Bad
Personally, I would never buy anything out of country (I live in Canada) or from sites like Ebay. I trust Canuck Audio Mart or Marketplace. That's it. Everything is either cash or EMT (no PayPal) and the buyer has to have a good transaction histo... 
Orchestrated Rock...Uriah Heep and others
"Elton John" by Elton John. Paul Buckmaster did the orchestral arrangements.  
Orchestrated Rock...Uriah Heep and others
Check out David Byrne "Live From Austin Texas" Saw him do this same show in Vancouver, BC in 2001 and the DVD is well worth watching. Great musicians, the always entertaining Mr. Byrne and a small group of strings.    
I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do?
They are out of my budget, but I am guessing that one can find excellent speakers under your $50,000 budget. If you worry about depreciation or buying used, then perhaps you should adjust your budget to a value that you are 100% comfortable with.
