| Most Important, Unloved Cable... I'm copying this comment from another thread about speaker cable and pasting it here:I've experimented with cables over the years, and have come to the same conclusion that the founder of Monster Cable finally fessed up to: expensive cables are a ... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... Old_scribe, could it maybe be that Cable Theologians are also suffering from confirmation bias, otherwise also known as the placebo effect (I spent a lot of money on it, it must be good!) | |
| Record Cleaning Machine VPI. 16.5. Built like Ike a brick s--thouse, as the saying goes, and it works just fine. Only reason to spend more would be to go ultrasonic. | |

I've experimented with cables over the years, and have come to the same conclusion that the founder of Monster Cable finally fessed up to: expensive cables are a gimmick conjured up by marketers who figured out that audiophiles will pay a lot of m... | |
| Wife trouble My wife could not tell the difference in sound between a six transistor radio and my gear. Until recently, when after experimenting with five or six SUTs at $350 to $1000, I found one for $190 that actually works well and now she gets it. That sai... | |

| Living in Audiophile Hell ! Buenos Aires , Argentina 90s is old news? Oh my!Almost all of my equipment is from the 50s to the 80s, and I'm happier than a pig in ... a pigpen. I dont relate to all of this newest/expensive going-around-in-circles stuff, especially in an audio market that has become ab... | |
| Have you ever tried a pair of speakers and said this Is the last thing I will ever need. Btw, I recently had my Altecs rebuilt: new accordion surround, woofer, spider, high frequency driver. Caps in the Mastering Lab crossovers replaced with Jensen foils. Made a difference, even though there was nothing wrong with anything, if judging... | |
| Have you ever tried a pair of speakers and said this Is the last thing I will ever need. I'm probably going to horrify most of the folks on this thread. I started out in audio when I was 14 with a Lafayette pair of speakers, integrated amp and a Garard table with a Stanton cartridge. When i was 23, I swapped a pair of Warfdale bookshe... | |

| Selling speakers to a buyer in Russia? I have never sold through friends and family. I have heard from people who have that eBay does not offer their usual guarantees and protections with this service and have been burned badly as a result. I would recommend not to use this unless they... |
