| Embarrassed....Audio furniture help She hates your audio gear.Young women are indoctrinated with a minimalist aesthetic now. Look at Architectural Digest: no rooms look like anyone ever lived there. What makes you think you will ever be allowed to listen in peace? Have you heard t... | |
| Russian Tube Preamp, No Return, Here I go again @ akg_cayou missed the humorous sarcasm. Hilde45 knows very well those were American quotes | |
| Gave up my SET----looking for moderate to higher power replacement options I got a D-Sonic to replace a Mesa Baron while it is under repair (blew a tube, etc.) and during the worst part of Houston summers (which run from about April through January.) the D-sonic is very nice, lots of detail, virtually unlimited power, c... | |

| has anyone tried chinese cables? Thanks to those who shared actual experiences. | |
| smaller speakers for critical listening? +1 Russ I still don’t understand why anyone would choose stand mounted mini’s, when a small tower takes up the same amount of floor space and has better, deeper, more realistic bass response. The cost of good stands usually evens out the value pr... | |
| Policy question: can I give away stereo equipment out here (asking for shipping)? A friend of mine claimed to have gotten rid of all his Grateful Dead tapes. Under pressure, he finally admitted, "Ok, I kept a few thousand." | |
| To venture back into vinyl or not,...that is the question. To exceed even moderately good modern digital with analogue is an expensive proposition.
