Another great gone, this time its Charlie Watts
All we can do is make the best of the time we have and Charlie certainly made the best of his.   A fine musician and a better person.RIP Mr. Watts.  
Does listening to music increase your IQ?
@pauly     I think that is what is referred to as "Mensarbation". 
When are people going to wake up and realize listening is a skill?
@three_easy_payments    "That guy".     Everyone knows someone like him. He has knowledge, but he uses it as a club to beat the uninformed with. Anyone that knows less than him is treated with distain and ridiculed. The weak are impressed by his b...

Hey, Miller.    Tell us the truth.    You are actually that guy in the Dos Equis beer commercials.     You know, the "most interesting guy in the world".    "By the time I was an instructor myself it was easy to go out with those same Intermediate... 
Check Your Tidal Accounts for Unauthorized Users/Fees
Unfortunately, I live in Canada which is a Qobuz-free zone.    As soon as there is a viable option, I am done with Tidal. 
TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS
Even if that is true, what kind of person brags about getting in people’s heads? He is an arrogant bully that some people tolerate. Kind of like a certain former President. 
TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS
@millercarbon    "Rent free"Is that what you say when you have no response?    Very convenient. 
TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS
"3 of my tweeters both sides including both centers were fried, my fault got carried away I push the impact more than they are capable of. No warranty covered."I am surprised. With a "400 Watt power handling" I wouldn't think you could completely ... 
Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool?
You might ask a friend, relative, neighbour or search Craigslist for a local handyman. Moving a 75" tv without another warm body to help is, quite frankly, a recipe for disaster. 
I'm looking for a pair of interconnects that won't shatter the bank....
@stereoisomer    Why ask a question and then go on vacation?    The least you could do is respond to the people that are trying to answer your question.    Perhaps you just want to poke the bear.    
Gryphon Mephisto
"You should go listen to the Sim audio 850p, it is way better than the Gryphon, but it costs $32,000 US. Phenomenal preamp."    If you want to be taken seriously, hyperbole should be avoided at all costs. A Porsche 911 GT3 is "way better" than a H... 
Best kept secret in AC line filtering conditioning
@hilde45    "JImmy agrees."Never trust people that have facial tattoos or people that speak about themselves in the third person.    Unless, of course, pomposity is a quality that you admire. 
Bass sensation like a loud car system in home?
My only question would be, why?Unless I am watching a battle scene from Avatar or Midway, the last thing I want is bass that is disproportional to the way it was recorded.     
Is your now then?
My first "job" was working and the Pacific National Exhibition in my hometown of Vancouver, Canada. I was paid $1.17 / hour to clean up after the farm animals. I used the money ($200.00) I made to buy a pair of big German speakers. To me they were... 
List your breakthrough products that you’ve discovered on this audiophile Journey.
@Glory    I am curious about your definition of a "bottom feeder".Is it anyone without the financial ability to buy the very pretentious sounding Theoretica Applied Physics Bacch-SP Adio 3D Sound Processer or is it merely everyone that doesn't sha...
