| Is there any such thing as a bad sounding DAC these days? After reading his NYT interview, ask Chad Kassem if there are any good DACs out there. | |
| Does anyone listen to the radio anymore? I'm listening to the radio as I type this. What can I say, I grew up with it, listening to the growth of the FM stations in Chicago. I love WFMT plus I really like all the college stations at the bottom of the dial. They're a great source of ne... | |

| BEST SPEAKER THAT COMES TO LIFE AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS Well, if no one else brought them up, Quad 57's. And if you want to take them to the next level, remove the grills and you might want stretch a shear cloth over the fronts. I used black polyester cloth and painted side panels with black paint.

| What Speaker Cables Taught Me About Audiophiles @erik_squires ' we audiophiles need to be conscious that sometimes our preferences are unique to our culture and that the "normal" consumer may not share them at all'. Or that you were wrong about which is better. A few years back, I had a sim... | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! @oldaudiophile It was a simple question; Has anyone tried Mofi's Ultra Record Wash concentrate for ultrasonic cleaning machines? In stead, outside of other methods of cleaning. you recommend mixing/making my own. When I asked you how to make my ... | |
