| The cool factor- who has it? Kool and the Gang I did cool to their early days before they declined and melted away and became lukewarm. Their second peak was in the 80s and for me they went from lukewarm back into cool again. | |
| Leave it on? @nutty “Naim recommends …. 24/7” Nothing against Naim (their sales slogan, “You are nothing without a Naim” was however pure nonsense) but manufacturers will swing or exploit anything to sell their products. Market perception is easily tweaked. ... | |
| Buying used from Canada @mapman ”Where is Superman when you need him?” (Post above removed) He thinks he’s already here “doing a great jab” | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! ”What is a recommended way(s) to dampen” discussion question @kennyc “Apply water;-“ Yes, some of us had a few laughs along the way with this discussion, but “we have (all) passed a lot of water since then”. Goldwynism | |
| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? @triton20trx ”l don’t need to know why but that’s just the way it is” ”l can listening to vinyl through tube amplification l can listen all day or night” Same emotional feeling with me. My vinyl just sounds more beguiling than anything digi... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @mahgister “l prefer to brag about knowledge…” ”Bragging about his system is most of the times bragging about his bank account” It’s always easy to beat an ignorant person with your 🧠 rather than with your 🤜 ‘s | |
| Buying used from Canada @moonwatcher Canadian tariffs. l think you put an extra 0 on the 25% import tax on some American goods. In England we often chuckle at the misinformation coming out. Mention it often enough and gullible people believe it. A bit like the old... | |
| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? Vince Guaraldi l have known of this artist for 55 years…. Frightening thinking that. I have had the original soundtrack from the film “A Boy Named Charlie Brown” since l was a boy. He wrote this spin off “special” instrumental music in 1970. I n... | |
| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? Observation…. “I also had my wife’s heathcare worker listen” Being a wife’s healthcare worker does not guarantee that person has good healthy ears. This discussion is just getting sillier by the minote. 🎶 l was listening to an old concert re... | |
| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? Squeaky hi-fidelity clean topic. I heard leather squeaks occasionally when listening to my set up. My sofa must be ultra high resolving…. Some of my doors too. I later discovered they had nothing to do with music, and it was reassuring to know th... | |
| Concentration @immathewj on Uncle Wilbur’s typing skills ... ref. “l WILL: SkRoLL>>>passT” Uncle Wilbur has just got shakey hands when typing…. That’s all. Please don’t mock the flicted, or the inflicted. It’s just very poor white coat bedside manner... | |
| Vinyl that is impossible to find The Strawbs. Strawberry Music Sampler No.1 1969 publicity limited edition promo album at the time and 99 pressed. Only two copies have surfaced since that time. The Strawbs first commercial album was produced by Tony Visconti. The tracks for the... | |
| Leave it on? @au_lait “…. the heat but also the electrical bill”. As @vair68robert said previously in the earlier days of this discussion….. A single amplifier at the national average KWh rate, consuming just 85w powered on amounts to $166 a year. Your Al... | |
| Leave it on? @russwill “My amplifier does not have a standby mode. If it did l would use it” Obviously my last post is irrelevant if equipment is plugged in and left on forever, but as you say, having more user options are plus points. | |
| Leave it on? @au_lait ”My cello preamp has no switch” In the UK we have switches on our 13amp sockets as a British Electrical Standard, so it’s not a problem isolating your preamp if over here. I know the US has 110v with normally no switches at the plug for ... |
