What in the world is going on.....
Czarivey…read my previous post. First line. Less people would have been aware of African music without Simon's use of the African musicians like Ladysmith for clearly what were HIS songs, and remember that he also had the first U.S. commercial reg... 
Subwoofers.... one 10" or two 8"?
My 8" REL t108 II is absolutely a true sub, and I use it with a REL 10" which is from the same era. Speaker size is less important than the overall design of course, and although the 8" REL is rated to 23hz or so, it works as a fine musical sub. I... 
What in the world is going on.....
Older guitarists "tend" to develop wrist arthritis? Some might, but otherwise that is utter bullcrap, and to compare Clapton and Beck to Santana who, although arguably soulful, has never really had the chops of most great guitar players (saw his l... 
What in the world is going on.....
Haven't heard his latest but the last album was sort of a "meh" for my tastes…however, I recently listened to my (I think) original LP of his first solo album and was impressed with how good it sounded. 
Corner Placement
I disagree…headphones always sound better when placed in a corner. 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Sorry Papa, I can only assume your check from SR is late and you're grumpy…this thread should continue in it's mindless and unfunny worship of overpriced pseudo tweaks any time now...

I put those PS audio plugs in years ago as they're great for my antique iron lung collection. And you have to wonder how many people would install good wall plugs and after 29 days would think, "gee, these things just don't cut it"…and friggin' se... 
The Davone Ray-S Speaker--A unique speaker that is worthy of your attention and audition
Remember the KLH (I think) speakers sideways on the groovy stands? Part of a packaged system maybe, but that Jetson's vibe…yeah man... 
Atmasphere amps trustable?
Wait…can't I simply get a screwdriver and remove the transformers from my amps? And where do all the unused transformers go? Is there a pile somewhere? Is there an opposite amp that is ALL transformers? These are the sort of sophisticated question... 
The Davone Ray-S Speaker--A unique speaker that is worthy of your attention and audition
I like it when designers do something other than "stick drivers in a box."  My main speakers at least have plastic rings covering the woofer screws...Although the 8600 Clams price puts these in a damn competitive market, they're undeniably cool. I... 
sub with totem staff
I’ve used the skinny Silverline Preludes (even smaller woofers than your Totems) as main speakers for years with REL subs and no room correction other than occasionally having to adjust the output of the RELs a little when a recording is bass heav... 
Corner Placement
Note that if you live in a yurt or a dome or any other sort of round building (former missile silos, grain storage towers, water tanks), corner placement can be difficult to accomplish due to the lack of corners. This explains why Audio Note speak... 
Atmasphere amps trustable?
Atamasphere amps might sound great but the "trust" factor could be an issue. I've heard that these amps can go through your personal items when you're not around, and there was one incident (not verified) I heard about where on of these OTL amps r... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
It's difficult to refuse the fuseless who claim a fusion with fancy fuse users. Oh, and the answer to Geoffkait's list of questions is: All of the above.  
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
What geoffkait does to his colon is certainly his business, and may be part of why he feels compelled to promote mythological faith-based tweaks like bags of rocks and "directional" fuses. Unnecessarily discomfort during his medical procedures cou...
