Epos K-1
I haven't heard them, but I know Cable Company sells them. They should have demo's available to send out to you. I'm pretty sure they are made overseas, so I would want to listen to them before I bought them. 
CD Recorder Died - Best Replacement Option?
You can always use a computer and there's plenty of good software for free that will make copies just as good as your Sony. You won't even have to buy CD-R's for music. Just regular ones will be fine. If you really need a stand alone CD burner lik... 
Kef 104/2 or Vandersteen 2ci - vintage shoot-out
If this is your first pair of Vandersteen's the main thing to worry about is setting them up properly. The manual goes over that in great detail, its pretty easy to do. Also, Vandersteen's benefit greatly from full double biwiring. That's 2 separa...

"02-08-15: JugheadAudioconnection, I own AQ jags, k12 and mont blanc cables I've pulled battery packs off and heard no difference."Those are all great cables. I still have the Jaguars. You can't just pull the cable off the DBS and listen to it. It... 
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
"Btw, that sure didn't take you long. Is there anything else you do during the day? Just curious."Nope. Its Sunday. I'm in church using my new wifi enabled tablet. Just don't tell Schubert or he'll flip. 
Audiophile Fakery
"02-08-15: ViridianDoesn't every solid-state amp have sand in the chassis?"It should. But you have to watch what these guys do or they'll cheat you on that too. About 50% of these clowns don't use audiophile grade sand. Can you believe it? If you ... 
Equalizers - Graphiic, Parametric & Channel Balance

Creek 5350SE Startum hum?
I used to have one, its fine. I still regret selling the one I had. You may have to have the pots cleaned sometime in the future, but its nothing to worry about. 
Starting a thread and then disappearing
I think, for the most part, one of two things happen. They either get the info they are looking for and just take it with no response, or they see the issue sparks a lot of debate with some of the members here and just don't want to get involved. 
Michell Gyro SE running fast
I think they give you more than one belt groove on the plinth. If that doesn't help, you'll probably need to get a speed controller. If you don't have a good dealer to work with, Try Hollywood Sound in FL. All he does is TT's and sells a lot of Mi... 
Need advice on cooling fan
If you have a Tiger Direct near where you live, that will probably be the best place to go. Corsair are very good and not too much money. They also make speed controls and silent power supplies. Given the application, I would get a modular power s...

"02-08-15: CsontosI think you're arguing with yourself. Carry on."Sorry, but their you're posts. You just don't want to be wrong. "And before you come back and start arguing with me, can you back that statement up with something real?"If you had a...

"02-07-15: Jugheadzd542, actually I was talking about the Chicago Cubs trying to change the subject. no disrespect was intended."I know. You guys have no sense of humour. Well maybe After_hrs, but that's it. 
Help with a secondary system
"1. Speakers? Should I go with, say, the Stereophile-acclaimed Pioneer SP-BS122 ($129). A used pair of Triangle Titus when they come up for sale? What would you recommend?"I tried a pair of those on my computer. They're a pretty good value and the...
