| The Cartridge and Stylus makes a big difference. 1 - First off, I take it as a given that anyone who posts here understands how critical the cartridge and stylus is to good vinyl analog sound. I don’t know why that would be a revelation, as others here have pointed out. 2 - the cartridge/tonearm... | |

| What albums, in your opinion, sound unquestionably better on Vinyl rather than Digital? All other things being equal, which they are usually not, I’d say vinyl. Some disks are available only on CD. Since my vinyl collection is ten times larger than my CD collection, I’ve spent 10 times more on the vinyl playback equipment than the CD... | |
| Personal vs. Market Values No one has asked if you could hear the truffle oil. An important consideration imho. Certsinly i I wouldn’t use the stuff as record cleaning fluid. | |
| What is the most memorable concert that you had attended so far? I just remembered a few more, and how could I forget these:Astor Piazzolla - at SOB’s. I was sitting near the stage, he invites a special guest onto the stage, a petit but statuesque woman sitting right next to me, elbows apart, at the next table ... | |
| What is the most memorable concert that you had attended so far? I forgot one:Miles Davis at The Bottom Line. During his jazz fusion era, maybe 5 years after Agartha recording. | |

| How do you store and catalog your vinyl? I have about 5,000 LPs. They are stored on shelving that consists of 42 cubes, 15 x 15. I built them myself. They are divided into into three more or less equal sized categories: classical, Afro Cuban, and everything else. The classical is divided... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? Geoffkait,blind tests are how science is done. i worked in pharma marketing for 25 years. Your meds don’t make it to market without blind testing with control groups. The rest is superstition, demagoguery, snake oil ... | |
| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay Audiogon community:Harold’s tone, syntax, grammatical style and emotional posture are suspiciously similar to the seller - a different name - that I had the unfortunate experience to contend with. Yes, I consider the case closed, it’s been a year.... | |
| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay It is “technically” owned by Paypal. As a a practical matter, it is  probably gonna sit in our mech/boiler room for a very long time. Yes, I found another from a seller that lived a couple hours away. I drove over, auditioned it, he had a scope so... | |
| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay Harold:wow. What a rant. You sound similar to the seller I had to contend with. What do you have to hide?I had examined the photos very closely. There was nothing that stood out as defective in the imagery. Even after the item arrived, it was real... | |
