Ready, set, comment! Speaker cables don’t make a difference?
Now that weed is legal in NY State, it ain’t as much fun, as the late great John Hartford once said. BUT, dollars on weed is way better spent - and much much cheaper - than $s on cable and speaker interconnects. And as an added bonus: it makes sex...

What happened? We’re you in multiple accidents? The pair I was born with, still runnin’ strong. I think... 
Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them!
Don’t listen to Millercarbon. Go with a Dyna 70. It’s even sorta period correct. There are many available as stock, or modified as this one is:https://www.ebay.com/itm/DYNACO-DYNAKIT-VTA-ST-70-Tube-Amplifier-NEW-Build-/154394386390?_trksid=p23...S... 
Are "vintage" DAC's worthwhile, or is this a tech that does not age well
Sounds oxymoronic to me, but what do I know: Music Choice only goes back to the 80s, no 60s!!!! 
Horn speakers , high efficiency but not “shouty”
I don’t see horns in either of those two examples. What am I missing? I’m old school. I have been living with Altec Lansing 604Cs for 44 years. 101db efficiency, 16 ohms, driven by Futterman OTL3s converted to triode (eight General Electric 6LF6 t... 
members and their systems
I’m with millercarbon on this. The query lacks focus.   
VINYL SUCKS!
I can’t say that I would go this far, but someone once told me that listening to vinyl is akin to making the bed and lighting the scented candle before you make love, and digital is more akin to a quickie in a back alley. 😳 
VINYL SUCKS!
Lalitk:ANo point in giving you those titles. In each case, I have (had) multiple pressings, and the others don’t sound stone quiet. In other words: sheer luck. Maybe you could go and pay $600 to that dude who does his “super duper stamper” thing a... 
Is It Time To Sell My Vinyl Rig?
I’d fight to the end for vinyl. I’d much rather suffer the fate of The Black Night before ever considering giving up my vinyl:https://youtu.be/ZmInkxbvlCs 
VINYL SUCKS!
Lalitk, I happen to have a few LPs among my thousands that are actually stone cold quiet. Imo, digital solid state sounds flat. Vinyl tube sounds dimensional. 
VINYL SUCKS!
This guy is sort of lame if you ask me. He thinks he is clever with that opening which he is not, and he thinks he knows a lot and he does not.  
The Lifespan of an LP?
When cared for properly, likely far longer than your lifespan.

Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment.
For 41 years, I lived in a 2000 sq ft loft in lower Manhattan. The 1200 square ft open area was the listening space, it had an irregular shape with tin ceilings, 60% of the eastern wall covered with huge windows, a brick wall behind the system, an... 
If your were to assemble a vintage system ?
My system is vintage. My system is set up for vinyl. My system costs about 20 times $1,500. My system can be seen here: theaudioatticvinylsundays.comMy system may give you ideas: for example, instead of the Futtermans, start out with a Dyna 70 (as...
