Who says cables don't make a difference?
Roberttdid,                  I’m NOT being sarcastic, but serious. With your engineering background, and my background building PC’s since college, and KNOWING how to solder, let’s meet up, make some pretty/shiny cables(in China of course!), and r... 
Who says cables don't make a difference?
I did get a nice thick, oxygen-free copper PC for my amp, the PC that came with it was like a lamp PC, if you know what I mean. Speaker cables? So much craziness!! They have to be off the floor! They have to be EXPENSIVE!! I honestly think going a... 
is this the greatest live band of all time?
Oh, I wish I had tickets to the Led Zeppelin reunion at the O2 in the UK, Jason Bonham on drums, WOW! I heard tickets were selling north of £30,000.00 a ticket!  
is this the greatest live band of all time?
The first, original U2 Joshua Tree tour. Second was Jimmy Buffet. Sting outdoors at Chastain Park, ATL. Korn, for the raw energy!! 
Confused. Need VERY sensitive headphones.
So, this might be a BORING THREAD!! SORRY!! Just trying to solve, what I thought would be a SIMPLE problem. Not so much.....I JUST need a portable headphone amp, ideally with a DAC, to bypass the ancient 1-bit DAC, in my 30 year old SONY D-EJ1000 ... 
Anyone remember the lateral tracking Bang and Olufsen record player from the 80’s??
Nobody , except ericvm6, has mentioned any audio product that blew them away in their teens, or college years. I mentioned the Dragon cassette player. I also STILL cherish my 30 y.o. Still working, looks brand new, SONY D-EJ1000 CD Diskman. NOBODY...

I AM a certified “mechanical enthusiast”!! I FEEL you!! Wish I could find a Dragon for sale!

ericvm6,             That is SO COOL!! Your story! I just thought as a 17 y.o., DAMN that LOOKS SO COOL!! I want one!!!  But my fast-food job at the time couldn’t afford it😢 I honestly thought that’s the COOLEST audio product I’ve EVER seen!! Then... 
Confused. Need VERY sensitive headphones.
Okay, so now I’m looking for a portable headphone amp for my portable CD player/iPods/iPhone, that has these 3 requirements:1) An optical line-in input jack would be great! Regular line-in jack okay. Really only the CD player TRULY NEEDS this amp.... 
Confused About LP Warps...How Can I Tell??
Maybe a record clamp would help??? Unsure. I wouldn’t worry about it.  
Confused About LP Warps...How Can I Tell??
No, they are all correct. A severe scratch on the LP would be WAY more harmful than a slight warp. It will not damage your stylist at all, It will just track the LP groove slightly up and down, unless it’s a huge warp! It’s kinda like your car dri...

Fuzztone,               It’s cool, it works, it’s from my “happy time” past. I love it, just as I LOVED my 1968 FIAT Spyder until a very old guy totaled it running thru a red light and crashing into me!!! Was SO mad!! All I have left of it is the ... 
Confused. Need VERY sensitive headphones.
Also, I’m not adverse to buying in-ear headphones, but honestly would prefer over the ear headphones, if any can be driven by my CD player.    Back in 1990 it costs me $200.00!! I actually have two of them, one I gave to my dad, who never used it,... 
Best CD player under $2000
Oppo makes a REALLY good CD player in your price range. Be sure to also purchase a green marker to color the edges of your CD’s!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 
What are the sexiest components ever made?
The 80’s B&W Nautilus speakers as well!! Look like a giant snail shell designed by H.R. Giger! The designer of the Aliens movie Aliens. HUGE speakers! Don’t know if B&W still makes them. B&O has some cool audio designs as well. But aga...
