Mega dollar systems. 200k on up. What are their professions?

"csmgolf, you make a good case. Do like I said, report him. We got one post removed." -- @millercarbonChuck, I got behind looking at the daily posts last week because I was under the weather, and there was a post that was removed by the Admin --... 
Do no harm to a signal! Does this mean.....

Is $2,844 too much to pay for a fuse?
"So, it's official. We've found an outer limit where even MC agrees, this is Bull$$$$" And lo and behold, yet another prophecy given to the Children of Fatima on May 13, 1917, has been fulfilled.  And there was much Rejoicing (yaaaaaaaay).http...

Wow!  This has to be an Audiogon first.  If anyone knows of another instance, please let me know ASAP.  Can you believe, there has actually been a "discussion thread devolved into a name calling argument" over the pros and cons and perceived audit... 
Turntable Speed
I have a mint condition Yamaha P-550 turntable that I bought new in 1983 that also has the strobe light adjustment.  I had it completely serviced to set up a turntable system for my youngest son a couple of years ago, and it dials in the speed lik... 
What about grannyring Helix interconnect cables and Helix power cords?
 "I have two of my personal double helix ICs built as above that may be available in two weeks.  Dismantling a second work studio system. If interested just let me know." May I ask the price?  Thank you.   
WHAT IS THE MOST UNIQUE SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD?
Pretty much anything by Godspeed You! Black Emperor.  The music collective from Montreal shows there is beauty in chaos.   
I have been on the hunt for the best turntable I can buy. Any suggestions?
"half off retail... with what you save you can send your kids to yale"@jjss49 -- He would only be saving $120,000.  That might cover 2 years at Yale....  
My NAD 3020 D proves your Class D tropes are wrong
Can someone direct me to a good source to get a better understanding of the differences in Class A, A/B, & D amplifiers?  I thank you in advance.

Anyone Successfully Go from Floor Standers to Bookshelf Monitors w/ Subs?

members and their systems
Also, don’t let some of the snarky posters get you down. They are the exception to this community rather than the rule. They spew BS at every opportunity, insult at will and stare at their screen non stop waiting for their next victim. In additi...
