| Declare the correct value on the Customs form? Mclinnguy, wait until after Inauguration Day if you want to see tariffs in action. We ain’t seen nuthin’ yet. | |

| Some thoughts on dust covers Sadly, undecillion hadn’t been approved during my clinical training years. Then I went into the lab and never came out. | |
| Some thoughts on dust covers Undecillion is also used when penicillin doesn’t work. | |
| Where's the next weak link in my analog chain? While I can’t agree that cables are a major key to audio happiness, I do agree they make a difference, and a highly colored cable like Cardas GC is likely to take you in a direction you don’t want to go based on your responses. Also I think cable ... | |
| Where's the next weak link in my analog chain? Art 9Xi and 1200G or G2 would be nice for you. | |
| Declare the correct value on the Customs form? I assure you, you’ll have no competition from me in hunting down another copy of the LP, no matter what it may be, if the cost is anywhere north of $30. | |

They might be more inclined to question such a... | |
| Question on phono input noise levels I’m having Deja vu; I feel like I’ve written this before. Anyway, “hiss” as I understand the term is not the result of poor grounding or a ground loop. That causes 60 or 129Hz hum. The august gents who replied in 2019 say hiss is a reflection of t... | |
| Some thoughts on dust covers Googled "what is the composition of dust". Found this on the Martha Stewart page: "But there is one important myth to bust: While dead skin cells certainly do make up part of the dust in our homes, it's not as big of a portion as you may think. S... | |
