| Who needs drugs when you've got music? I almost cried at a concert...I got my finger stuck in a speaker stand while setting up a sound system for a Pat Donahue show. After the show I told Pat that this concert had a strong effect on my guitar playing...he thanked me and then I told him... | |
| Legacy audio classics "Topic Beaten to Death" is in itself, classic. | |
| Thiel CS1.7 loudspeaker I want a 1.6...on my short list of audio wants. I will someday liberate one from somewhere...I mean two...I want two. | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? Wait...in denial about what? Wait...you're right. I admit to everything. | |
| Jolida 502 KT120 tube swapping There are a LOT of "small tube" suggestions around...I'm using "preferrd" 7025s (12ax7) from thetubestore, and recently added a pair of Mullard 12at7/4024s. Jolida's Jerred likes GEs, Michael Allen likes Phillips Mini Watt tubes...I like whatever ... | |
| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test I was merely pointing out that the test procedure, as carefully managed as it was, resulted in results that are useless to ME. After all, it's me that matters. I have done my own tests on my stuff with myself, and the result of de-coupling my Silv... | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? To make your herbal recreation choices based on the fact that some people shouldn't use it since they clearly have a propensity for abuse of it, shouldn't matter to the rest of us. I don't want to sound like a NORML crusader because I don't care e... | |

| Thiel CS1.7 loudspeaker I think the 1.7 replaces the 1.6, and will cost a lot more. | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? Reefer Madness. There really are alternative universes it seems. | |
| Speaker Spikes - do the shake test The entire test noted above was not performed in my house with my ears, and thus is rendered useless, especially since it didn't test my speakers or any other floorstanding speakers on wood floors using vibrapods. Also, the text of the post was cl... | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? I don't mind memory loss as it simply allows me to experience things multiple times as if they were new. | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? "So what is the loss you claim when attempting to benefit from an otherwise useless experience?"...mostly vitamin B. | |
| PSB Image t6 or Imagine T? No sub and rotel amp I think we need a moratorium on music style seeming important to speaker selection. "I listen mostly to streaming Bangra dance music and solo flute on 78s, with some Mahler and Tibetan Throat warbeling 45 rpm LPs"...I can't take it...please...I re... | |
| Elevate Floorstanders to Ear Level? It depends on the speaker of course, but I found some butcher blocks that fit under my Silverline Preludes perfectly (2 blocks per side) and painted 'em flat black. Raised them to exactly my ear level (added maybe 4 inches) and since the Preludes ... |
