    Prices.... Going Up!!!

    Yup, prices going up. Most people realize inflation costs but a radio dj made the point a few days ago that a year of 8.5% inflation will effectively take 1 monthly paycheck per year. Do you like getting by for a year on 11 paychecks? A second year of the same inflation will effectively take...

    I've had a $40 Goodwill pair of C40s in the bedroom for about 10 years. Very happy with them. Then upgraded from. Pioneer SX-650 (35 epic) to Denon PMA-750 (80wpc). Sounded like a new pair of speakers. No mods up to now. Bass really opened up and much livelier. Previously I had been using...

    Weird rubber stuffs in spade connectors

    I've received several connectors with these inserts. Right or wrong, I understood them to just be there so the screws wouldn't go all the way IN through the threads and fall out. Just a humble opinion, though I do remember seeing a YouTube video on diy connectors and the demonstrator said to...
