What direction should Hi Fi tune fuse be installed
Penn & Teller's "Bullshit" series is smart, funny, and accurate, although maybe too much for the simple or classically religious...get permission from an adult before watching it. 
New KT150 tubes?
Tubes and VU meters...I put my Squeezebox on the VU setting a lot. It makes digital seem warm and comforting.

I HATE SPELLING ERRORS...so I thank Almarg for alerting me to this one, and encourage others to be so diligent. It was supposed to be "disparate." Also, I'm a fan of interesting interior design, architecture, blah blah...(especially Blah Blah) and...

Penn & Teller did a hilarious expose' of Feng Shui fraud by having a few "experts" (they say it's a science, NOT an art) secretly filmed while applying this "science" to the same room, and all of them were utterly disperate with one even tryin...

Feng Shui is nonesense, although design of interior space is interesting anyway. My next great idea: Tiny (I mean really tiny) damping rubber bands for fuses...only $127.50 each. You want these...I know you do...come on now...

I think it's lame to design a tube amp that doesn't allow you to easily see the tubes...The Rogers EHF 200 gets my vote for current KT150 design champ. 
Turntable on suspended floor - shelf or braces?
Not sure is this is relevant, but I bought an older but clean Linn table a few years back and stuck on top of my rack where it was NOT happy...then (of course) read the "official" manual which suggested a lower firm table and it's worked perfectly...

The true value of this thread is that it allows Bo1972 to post amazing things about which others can derive pleasure from responding to. One needs to see beyond the vacuity of the original post to appreciate the art of what should now be referred ...

Diatribalist. I think that's the apt term here...

I have RCF drivers in Mackie and EAW (they own Mackie or Mackie owns them...something) speakers, and Yorkville is one of the best pro audio companies out there. I have a strong reaction to what I consider bullcrap which has little or nothing to do...

I hope Bo1972 never stops...seriously, it's like some demented poetry...ahem: "When an audio system plays in full 3D you see a much bigger smile on the faces of people. To create a higher level of blacks makes instruments and voices come alive. Cr...

To expand on what Macrojack says, and because I enjoy addressing this dude: Bo1972 is apparently unable to comprehend the message from others that his absolutist stance on exactly what comprises good sound is annoying and makes him seem like a foo...

Wait...it's been another 2 days of waiting for Kal's testing results...I can't handle the suspense...I'm in audio LIMBO...

Short cable issues, woofer "speed" myths, bizarre testing claims, and yet another suggestion of what people "should" listen to based on unsubstantiated nonesense. It just doesn't get any better around here.

Item number 2 in my Get Rich Quick scheme: A unidirectional fuse! That's right...along with my previously mentioned "Deconfuser" testing apparatus, I plan to market a fuse to the confused that can be used in either direction with less chance for f...
