| Premium Power Cable Survey: The Results Are IN @westcoastaudiophile @thyname And, just when I thought it was safe to jump back in the forum ...

| Premium Power Cable Survey: The Results Are IN @bigkidz "if/when you changed the component, did the premium cable still have the same effect/impact." Yes, this would have been a good one. Next time? | |
| What was the best (most impactful) piece of new equipment to hit the market in 2023? Lots of new innovations hitting the market. But, I am sadly disappointed that the return of the hollowed-out Dishwasher body has not materialized.

| Was 1971 the high point of popular music? @roxy54 Absolutely! And thanks for the topic/posts. Very enjoyable conversation. | |
| Was 1971 the high point of popular music? @roxy54 My reference to "a brief moment in time" was intended to be a little broader than 1971 -- perhaps a 20 year period (+/-) from the fifties to the early seventies. I am in agreement with you that some of the pioneers of popular music had p... | |
| Was 1971 the high point of popular music? @roxy54 For a brief period of time, all the stars lined up and we were gifted some of the best examples of "popular" music in history. 1971 could represent the pinnacle of a concentration of talent and genuius that our great, great grandchildren... | |
