Being alone with your music
I’m single and live in near recluse. Very first music listening as this New Transistor radio with a little 9V battery. At night in bed under the covers. Sony reel to reel model 111. recordings made from that a.m, radio. Upgraded to a Wollensak. A... 
Why on earth?
I commented on a few of those videos.  "You Spent All That Money and they still sound like television speakers."  
Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping?
Some of us kind of do it already with an addition of a sub-woofer. We also have enjoyed the time, expense and fun this can be to get it right. As far as waste of time, you will never know yourself if this is BS or not. Clarification. 1, You sta... 
How serious are you?
Serious Obsession? I just watched Crazy CAR WIZARD Stories: Six cars that truly Ruined My Customer's lives!  One of them was, using money set aside for his wife's cancer treatments to fund his car repairs.  I'm going to set this as 10.  This will... 
As A Youngster, What Unit Puqued Your Interest In All This?
Music and electronics when I was around 8 years old.  1962ish. My dad found out that we could help Salvation Army Thrift take apart big donated furniture stereo tv consoles for $5.00.  Speakers, turntables, AM FM radios, amplifiers.  I experimente... 
Am I broken? Am I stuck? Do I have to return my audiophile card now?
You don’t have to turn in your audiophile card. In fact, you will be issued an Audiophile Platinum card. Go for it! You like the sound of them. You have the space for them. You obviously have the money to get them without having your house go in... 
Am I missing anything?
You got all the speakers for a 5.1 A/V system. Might want to add the amp/procrssor that feeds the speakers. "Avid Audiophile"  If the cables to the speakers are easily removed, them too. I would think they would be of better quality than Walmart... 
End of life for Vandersteen IICe?
Wow. All drivers and crossovers?!!! I also would like to know what caused it.  I would think anything this catastrophic would take out the Adcoms too.  I would list them as Come Get Them Free.   Someone out there (close to you) would not mind tin...

So many YouTube clips to evaluate sound quality. Why???
Insane as recording a video of their systems and tweeks are, YouTube are Paying Them for their content uploads.  And you know what?  We have Watched them.  Youtube not paying us.  Not me anyway. As for Shows and Salon auditions.  Had gotten to kn... 
Turns out I'm a high impedance cable
I know I am about 20k-250k ohm resistor.  Depends how hard I squeeze the test lead and flex my hand and arm muscles.  That's why electrocution works so well.  I haven't tried left hand to left foot.  Right hand, right foot for stereo mode.  Talk ... 
A'gon joke...
The whole Discussion was Deleted.  Not only Your Comment. I do Post and Drop.  I would never know if any of my comment was deleted.  My fingers exercised the first amendment.  Hopefully my sarcasm doesn't insult anyone but myself.  I recall one ... 
Taylor Swift Concert Prices
I bet you,, it sounded like "Being There".  Not like this recorded stereo stuff. For me, except for symphony Hall concerts, I have gotten to dislike most live concerts.    
Airplane Seat Power Ground Loop?
Interesting.  When I worked on sensitive equipment, I had to use an AntiStatic Wristband to ground me to the workstation.  It looked like the Twist 'o Flex watchband. Connected that wire to your dac.  Some antistatic band did have a like a 100M o... 
EBAY MONEY BACK.......WHAT A JOKE ???
I have 1,323 purchases over 20+ years from ebay.   A few I "Did not receive the item".  12? total. Emailing the seller.  I got credited for most of the items.  A few I filed a "Dispute" with ebay after "no replies" from the seller.  I had proof th...
