| This is DigDug's Wife; DigDug passed away. Need advice on selling sound absorbing panels A high end audio store could be an option. You'll get less money but far fewer headaches. Did you say where you're located? When you google the going prices, look at the high price and the low selling price. Some items look attractive but come up ... | |
| How to physically move large heavy 100lb amplifiers easily (up and downstairs) Get your wife to move it!Seriously though; I'm lucky as I'm still able to move up to 200 lbs. by myself. I just carried two Pioneer speakers up a long flight of stairs. I was huffing and puffing a bit, I admit.I can't see hiring two young people t... | |
| If you could, what live performances would you enjoy re-living? I was really into the folky stuff as far as music venues were concerned. I like all genres of music but I hate large crowds. I used to go to Godfrey Daniels coffee house in Bethlehem, Pa. Anyone here familiar with Godfreys? High on my list was Sta... | |
| Why the truth is not in them ?? The majority of the people on Audiogon are wonderful. This is why I choose to do business here. I had a guy send me a $1000.00 deposit on a set of speakers once. He changed his mind two weeks later. I cheerfully refunded his money. I consider an ... | |
| You know you are an Audiophile when: You shell out $1500.00 for a used pair of speaker cables and are amazed at the great deal that you got! | |
| Newbie to the awesome audiophile world OP, If your head isn't already spinning, I'll add this to the fray; Consider that most gear is just one economic downturn away from becoming a doorstop. At least half of the companies whose gear I've purchased have gone belly up. Now this doesn't... | |
| My #@%$ Cat Destroyed My ARC REF 5SE. Soliciting Suggestions. If your amp was made by Pass Labs, you 'd be in luck. They would have repaired it for next to nothing. They have an insanely liberal and cheap repair policy.I had a beloved cat who used one row of my LP to sharpen his claws. I loved her so much I ... | |
| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? Also, it becomes necessary to protect people from themselves. In this case, many people may have just left the loudness switch in the on position regardless of volume. This could result in damaging a speaker or at least distorted sound. When I was... | |
| How many NICE looking high end floor standing speaker are there at present I told a violin player I met about the Lawrence Audio Violins. If I played the violin and I was an audiophile, they would be awesome to have in my living room. I really like the looks of my old Snell Type B's. They're unique because they have... | |
| Analysis Plus Silver Apex Speaker cable Thanks for the recommendations all. I'll keep you all posted though the burn in for me will take awhile. Joe | |
| Religious music for less than devout Wow! I'm surprised that no ones mentioned Bruce Cockburn. God is in many of his songs. I like "Nothin But a Burning Light" LP. All great songs and well recorded. Check it out. "Cry of a Tiny Babe" is a standout. Joe | |
| What do you think causes the crackle and clicks we hear? For me, it's my bones! Joe | |
| Analysis Plus Silver Apex Speaker cable Which cables did you end up listening too? Joe | |
| Interesting Fed Ex encounter... I had this situation with UPS last December; Our pick up and delivery man came while I was at the shop. He scanned three packages with his hand held gadget. I helped him by carrying out the $1200.00 preamp. Off he went. We use the old "book" syste... | |
| Most recordings you own by a single artist, group, or composer I've collected Mason Williams to a crazy extent, Now someone may say "He didn't release all that much". You'd be right! I had to search far and wide. I called up old college friends of his as well as old folk clubs. His band mates were a good sour... |
