Perfect Vinyl Forever
I use Bug and Tar Remover and 0000 steel wool to clean old, rusty metal car parts.  I glanced over at my vinyl collection and rejected the concept of duplicating the process.  It was one of my better life choices.    
user poll on seperates vs integrated
It would be interesting to do an actual survey of participants related to this subject.  Key questions could extract a lot of raw data from the group, and could be viewed in detail, or summarily.  I can think of a dozen, or so, questions off hand ... 
Has Your Hobby Changed?
Other activities have encroached on my listening sessions.  I'd say the trade offs have been an overall positive change for an aging audiophile.  Even with significant hearing loss, those listening sessions remain very special. Enjoy the music.  ...

I’d just like to say that the gals who tolerate us boys and our hobbies are the nicest, most patient, loving and accommodating people in the world. I’ve seen this across mulitple spectrums/hobbies. They are the best of the best. Here I am, talkin... 
How rare is an audiophile
30 years from now the young people of today will be in their 50’s and "listening" to perfect music transmitted to their brains telepathically. Then they’ll say to each other: "Ah, remember the good ’ole days when we danced around and enjoyed liste... 
How rare is an audiophile
There are tons of people out there who "like" music. They want their music close by, but don’t want to be tethered by the physical or mental constraints of being an "audiophile" and/or music "lover". The diference being that the music "lover" is c...

@ozzy62 "You can mention the speaker brand," Okay ... drum roll please ..             Cornwalls I discovered a lot about Klisch a very short time after the delivery truck arrived at my store. Such as don’t remove a Cornwall off the truck ...
