A Record Collection/Moral Conundrum - What Would You Do?
What shape are they in, are they saleable? Many widows are getting rid of their husbands collections So the market could be glutted except for the prized stuff so you might have some work on your hands to go through everyone. Would this guy even ... 
Radio frequencies picked up by phono stage.
Thanks for your resonses. The phono stage I am using now is an inexpensive pro-ject after selling off a beautiful Allnic in frustration. But through the help of a friend I was able to try various stages and found the exact same problem. I have t... 
Samsung flat screen TV’s
Have an LG 86" which I like very much. Can’t imagine anything smaller for my relatively small living room and I don’t even consider it very big for my space. Kind of wish I had gotten a projector for 120".Robert Harris the great film restorer(Lawr... 
Do you care about car audio?
When I bought my Camry many years ago I got the upgraded soundsystem. It sounds very good but unfortunately the car is a bit noisy. I can still though listen to all kinds of music on it from digital recordings to vintage recordings going back to t... 
Classical Top Five
Gluck-Some of the most meltingly beautiful music ever and I can hardly believe it was composed by a man.And for brownsfan the B Minor Mass is considered the greatest piece of music ever written.  
Worst Concerts You Have Attended ??
Billy Joel. Somebody's bored old uncle needing to pay alimony. 
For ARC lovers, Problems?
Tubes would continually blow. I had an authorized dealer fix it and the factory as well. I finally had to give up. I must say it was a glorious sounding piece of equipment. I miss it but I only had it half the time.  
Seriously? Why Buy ARC Ref 6SE? seems Benchmark LA4 is a better choice.
I had the ref 6. It was a beauty. I can't imagine how good the 6SE would be. 
At wits' end with radio through the speakers!
Oh brother.I have the exact same problem(not with a Herron) and no matter what I’ve tried from everybody I’ve spoken to nothing helps. SS or tube. It suddenly started one day and I wonder if some sort of magnetic field developed in my large apartm... 
Songs that make your system sound AWSOME!
Annie Lennox Whiter Shade of Pale 
What's the best and/or favorite piece of equipment you've owned? And do you still own it?
Audio Research Ref 10. The most gorgeous sound. No longer own it. Heartbreaking. 
Are there any tube amps that don't give off any---
How lucky you are that you can listen to any music from even a solid state system on warm days without having to turn on the air conditioning. I'd like to move to the North Pole at this point just so I can listen to music from June to October with... 
REL T/9i or S5
Thanks for all your responses. I'll be getting something in the lower end of the S series. 
Lemons are an actual thing in high-end audio
I just came off of a very very bitter experience with a lemon(used.) Not only did I spend a lot of money getting it repaired a few times but the biggest problem was the sound it made was so magical and compelling I couldn’t believe these sounds we... 
Cool it!
Do you enjoy your music even with a window air conditioner going? Or do all of you have central air?
