Upgrade from martin 40i
I have to say I’m very curious as to what the final result has been with your ML 40is.   Did you get your new tweeter installed?  Did that solve your problem?  Thanks.     
Are There Improvements that Can Be Easily and Quickly Made Without Buying More Stuff?
+1 for earwax removal.  Sounds silly but once you try it, you’ll understand. Avoid q-tips whenever possible.  Just use something like Debrox and then shower. Almost free.     
Favourite Guitarists
I’ve been fortunate enough to see some of these folks live so let me give an additional thumbs up to Robben Ford and Tommy Emmanuel.   Peter Green is another all time fave, though I’ve never heard him in person.   Mark Knopfler is often passed o... 
Vinyl - One Word - WOW!!
I always find these analog vs digital debates entertaining. Many good points on both sides here, but they are unlikely to convince the many folks that are heavily invested in either, or confused about which path to follow. In some fundamental way... 
Improve sound
You would have to do something very bad to blow a tweeter.  And chances are you heard it when it happened, if that is what happened.  If this is not the case and you are just not getting the sound you are looking for from one speaker, consider tro... 
HELP!!!! Newbie looking for a decent 2 channel power amp in the $1,000 range
I stumbled on this thread too late to be of any real help, but I have to chime in here even though I know you’ve made your choice already. I recently swapped out my beloved Khartago for a Parasound A-23. At first, I only noticed the things that s... 
Not sure what to think or do...
I think @sunshdw is closest to the answer here.  Wharfdales would seem to me to be the polar opposite of JBLs.  Aficionados of either of these speakers brands are unlikely to love the other.  Synergy, break-in or electronics are not the problem h... 
RIP Christine McVie
A little known gem from her 80s solo album is One In A Million. It features vocals by Steve Winwood and drums by a pre-Heartbreakers Steve Ferrone. Great song. But my very first FM album was Bare Trees and it has been my favorite ever since. So i... 
What selections do you play when showing off your system to others?
When pressed it can be difficult for some people to come up with a song on the spot.  Especially when surrounded by hundreds of CDs and records.  But if someone has made it into my listening room, then the odds are good I know at least a little so...

@bikeboy52  10-4 Good buddy.  Will do.  One more for the road?  Let Me Live - Roomful of Blues  😎   
Car songs
bikeboy52 Alternator IS a great friggin car tune. And Truckers Speed is a great truckin tune. Thanks for turning us on to Fred Eaglesmith. So many cool songs here. It’s Immaterial. Cool song/Cool video Kaleo, Kelsey Lu, Jan Hammer’s Crocket’s The... 
Car songs
Finally, a topic near and dear to my heart -power cords notwithstanding.     I love playlists.  My “Going Mobile” playlist is a six hour, 96 song, ode to cars and being on the road and features many of the tunes suggested here.  It evolved over s... 
Why do so many sellers take offense to offers on their listings?
I have to say this has been an interesting and useful thread. I made it all the way to the end so far, and that doesn’t happen very often.  So many good comments.   I’ve been an A-goner for a while now but rarely buy much, other than accessories.... 
Balance control?
Lewm and Slaw are correct. Using the placement of a vocalist in the mix is not reliable. And if your problem is not electronic you could be obsessing over something that could have you chasing your tail for some time, instead of enjoying your reco...

In law school a friend and I would converse in SD lyrics to the befuddlement of others. "No marigolds in the promised land." 'Oh, no, Guadalajara won't do." Etc.   hickamore  “…solamente un tonto…”  🤓
