What are you Listening To Right Now? - and more

So, did you know that Van Halen were the special guests, or did you find out day of show?
I knew ahead of time. There were 6 bands playing that day. Ugly Kid Joe was 4th up. Van Halen weren’t well known in the UK at the time so used the gig to get some exposure. Their presence was my reason for going, although I have to say, Bon Jovi were actually very good.
 
The resistivity of copper oxide goes up a lot compared to that of clean copper, so much so that it can prevent a starter from turning over in a car and that's DC!!

Personally I prescribe to the school that a home setup needs to be disassembled periodically & all interconnects cleaned. Surface oxidization is real. Ever metal type oxidizing at a variety of rates depending on climate. Cables are easy to clean, inside your units RCA jack more difficult. Routine maintenace, just like changing the oil in your car.

Personally think it would have been cool if the home stereo industry had evolved where all the interconnects clamped together, like a car battery.
