| No grounded outelsts Yes, that is why you need to use a ground tester. Also, I doubt a reputable electrician would stand by the cheat that uses the skrew in the outlet.Mine wouldn't. | |
| Tired of Problems with Tube Equipment Aw shucks. The only interesting people at a party are the ones who come over and just stare at all the pretty lights and the fantastic McIntosh blue faceplates.It all sounds kinda good, too. | |

| Adding a Squeezebox - Upgrading Path? Squeezebox is the best 'bang for the dollar' when using an external DAC. Careful, when you access the favorite's internet live feeds, such as RadioParadise, you might even be spending a bit less time in iTunes from your computer.Go for it. | |

| Apple Computers--MIDI Settings Thank you. Do i do anything here when I activate my wireless connection to my slimdevices Transporter? | |
| Tube amp recommendation I think we are diverging from the original question.For the money and quality...and what I think will fit your listening needs, get yourself a McIntosh 2102 amp.100 watts/channel, runs problem-free and is somewhat sensitive to tube rolling (ditch ... | |
| Power Receptacles - Review and Comparison For the money, Porter Ports are a really good investment. | |
| Wall Insulation Even though your basement is dry I still suggest the mold resistant (Fiberglass instead of paper) sheet rock available at Home Depot. It meets all code for both regular sheetrock and for green sheetrock used in a shower.Yes, you should insulate as... | |
| internet music same for any tuner? Streaming internet music has pretty much replaced my tuner for home listening. I still listen to the radio in my car. There are some really wonderful internet stations that don't have commercials. Radio Paradise being one of them.Also most radio s... | |
| Why the Blues Really Hit The Spot First, get the box set of CDs, Martin Scorsese Presents THE BLUES. This is from the PBS special...the re-mixing is some of the very best and will sound fantastic on a high-end system.I play lots of the Blues, but not too often with company.Anyone ... |
