Well, in a way it is belong here. This is just an indication of the type of the people who use high-end audio toys. It is not about damage of the Ikeda cartridge, this is less relevant subject. What I feel is relevant is the level at which they find ...

Romy, I’m disappointed to see you confront your own belief just to win a debate. It is not my intention to convince you, but if you, after all these years of research on horn flares, think that a twisted flare rate at the begining might just have som...

I need to say that I do consider the idea of 5.1, 7.1 or any other foolishnesses exists out there for video as… foolishness. It is not that I have my opinion and I agree with it but I have a whole array of well formulated reasons why I feel that 5 ch...
