More reports-How many corrupted CD-R's with time?
I have been burning cdrs for 6 years now. All of my audio cdrs have been burned at 8x and data cdrs were usually burned at whatever their maximum write speed was.Several hundred audio cdrs were burned on generic junk discs (like CMC Magnetics). Th... 
Overpriced Tube Amps
It seems as though whenever something is featured in a magazine the prices shoot up. It is absolutey ludicrous! Is this what you're referring to? I can't wait until they do one of those "retro" reviews on my loudspeakers. I'll dump them for 2x wha... 
Maggies moved 6 inches...big improvement
If Maggies couldn't possibly move while playing music then why does nearly everyone claim big improvements when using stands, such as Sound Anchors, that lessen the movement of the speaker?For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. ...

Worst Name for A Piece of Equipment
I kan't stand the names of Linn's ekwipment. They will not name a piece of gear unless they kan totally botch the spelling of the word and replace as many Cs with Ks as possible. I find this ekstremely annoying for some reason, and it's really not...

SEEKING A QUALITY CDR
"Audio" cdrs are not necessary when using a computer burner. You probably paid a little extra due to a tax put on audio cdrs.http://www.feurio.com/English/faq/faq_vocable_audiocdr.shtml 
Who was Peg?
You have a 65 Mustang, too?What track are you talking about playing backwards? It's easy with Sound Forge. I'd like to try it! 
Who was Peg?
I noticed that the vocals on Peg come from the left side of the stage. Aren't they usually centered? I initially thought there was something wrong with my system but verifyied that there wasn't by swapping channels in Sound Forge. After that the v... 
How Old is Old when considering an Amp? Krell, Bry
I can vouch for Classe's service. I have a CA-200 that had a little problem. I sent it to Classe where they fixed it, made some updates, and replaced the RCA jacks because they showed signs of normal wear. They didn't charge me anything but I did ... 
best external cd burner to convert SHN file
Maxnewid,I'm intrigued by your talk of vinyl bootlegs. Do you mean that you have LPs of live shows cut from reel to reel tapes that are not "authorized" to be sold by the artists? 
Buyer Beware of Late Part 2
Velo62,I saw that MC1201 for 2k, too. no feedback. stuck out like a sore thumb. I asked the dude about the amp's exact application (single monoblock) and guess what... no response. He probably doesn't even know what a monoblock is. I also told him... 
best external cd burner to convert SHN file
I do this all the time! Nothing special or expensive is needed to do this at all. Before you burn, you convert the shns (or flac) to wavs on your hard drive. Then you burn the wavs. You can use any cd or dvd burner to do the burning. Nothing speci...
