| Does your pet listen to your system? My Mitsy, a 24 lb white Spitz, absolutely listens. She knows where the sweet spot is: my armchair which she quickly jumps into when I get up to get something, but otherwise right in front. She responds by twitching her ears and tilting and turning... | |
| turntable recommendations I have owned a VPI HW with a Sumiko MMT arm since 1985. Bought as an HW MK II, with a Benz Micro. About ten years ago, I considered an upgrade to the VPI Classic. I noticed a change in the design philosophy so I called Harry to ask wassup?We had a... | |

| Who are your three favorite female singers? I am going to disregard "3" also, because I think that a goal of the exercise is that it’s worth getting names out that people haven’t necessarily heard and deserve attention. If I had to pick three that were my favorites, ... well, I can’t really... | |

| A Couple Little Things I'm Wondering About I have placed my speaker cables in the nearest inter-galactic black hole. As a consequence, I have zero interference and noise. I don’t hear a thing, as a matter of fact. | |
| All New Magico A5 Loudspeakers // Biggest "BANG" For Your BUCK On The Market ?! Might be the biggest bang in my wallet. There will be no doubt about that part of it. | |
| To venture back into vinyl or not,...that is the question. At $500 CDs are better. At .... I don’t know, $2,000 and up, $4,000 and up?, vinyl is better. Jssmith, I grew up with vinyl. My first LP was The Rolling Stones 12 x 5, age 9. Since then I’ve added 6,000+ LPs, About 200 45s, and 300 78s. I listen t... | |

We spent an afternoon in Woodstock doing some window shopping that evolved into real shopping as often happens. I saw a small copy of the W... | |
| Think fast: What would you take? I’d take my memories. And once I’m resettled, I’d put some thought into why the fires are happening, how my lifestyle may be contributing, and make some course corrections. At the end of the day, our audio hobby is just stuff. In the meantime, the... | |

(Is that a straw man argument, or, lacking other evidence, simply taking the argument to its logical conclusion?)TWO:A ... | |
| Leave tube amps always on? I have a pair of Futterman OTL3s, modified from pentode to triode. If I’m listening and have to walk away for up to an hour or two, I leave them running. Otherwise, I turn them on, wait a half hour, and when I’m done, they go off. Reasons:- fire h... |
