| Do I need a machine to clean ? Besides the convenience of being less labor intensive, the more expensive machines do a better job because they have more powerful suction. I had the entry level AA machine and it never got all of the fluid off the record no matter how long I spun... | |
| Stands make a huge difference with ProAc Warren, I cringe when I read posts from people who claim that they have found the holy grail and that the way they are doing it is the only way. While your stands are designed around a valid concept, just because it works with your speakers on you... | |
| Dealing with an unstable, vibrating wood floor... If your walls aren't strong enough to hold a spice rack then you need to move. | |
| Impressions on Talking Heads Box Set What box set are you referring to? | |
| Is solid state on the brink of extinction? It is impossible to comment since you only listed one piece (Acoustic Reality eAR 2 MKII Class D amp) in your post. Not knowing what you had, and what you now have, makes it impossible to assess whether you upgraded or not. Less expensive, current... | |
| UPS is in bed with the devil, It wouldn't be so bad if they had charged me an overweight fee AND delivered them, but to charge extra and then return them is not right. I did look through their 24 page legal disclaimer and the fee is in there and it says it is their option to d... | |

| Differences in CD players? Am I crazy? "Admittedly, I have cheaper components. An entry level Kenwood receiver, and cerwin vega speakers,"I think you have analyzed the situation properly. You need to compare the two in a higher resolution system and then see if you hear a difference. | |
| DYI Speakers. How good can they be? I wish you luck but the Wright Brothers maybe shouldn't be your role model. They may have been first to fly in 1903, but after an initial burst of business success they fell behind and were struggling 8 years later. In 1912, Wilbur Wright, worn ou... | |
| Rate these on order of importance: Matchstikman, if you have crappy speakers with a great source the end result is still crap.If you put one bad ingredient on your pizza you are going to have a bad pizza not matter how good the rest of it is. | |
| Rate these on order of importance: Bad speakers in a great room will sound as poor as great speakers in terrible room. A great source feeding bad speakers will sound just as poor as a bad source feeding great speakers, etc. etc. What you ask is impossible. It is called a system for... | |
| soundquality televisionbroadcasting THAT good ? It is technically impossible for the FM audio from a standard television broadcast to be as good as what good CD playback has to offer in terms of both frequency extension and dynamic range.
