    Post pictures of anything, with comment...couple words.

    This is not my picture, but interesting, I think.. Courtesy to Jane Bunn who hosts a facebook site devoted to Australin pics. Forgive the size. I am learning.

    Rick Beato: The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse

    I think that this is a prudent opinion. In this reasonably brief thread, I have counted perhaps nine (I lost count) Youtube links. Very little comment was provided by the contributors. Is this good enough for ASR? Edit - of course things are different in threads devoted to Youtube clips...

    Why are there so many Snake Oil in this business?

    A few years ago I watched with interest a forum on amplifier fuses. Many came in lovely colours and were offered for three or four digit dollars. In the meantime I am happy with a a bunch of generic (correct specifications, of course) little things I keep in a matchbox that cost a few bucks...

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    From about page one. [Edit - post 18] This is not just profanity but something that approaches blasphemy. Goddammit Noske is your intention to single handedly undermine the whole hi-fi industry! Keith "God damn it". Unacceptable. I trust that our wonderful new moderator will lift ASR...

    Reminds me of the day I was looking for a spider.

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    Are you proud of that awful factoid? There is quite some discontent in the wider audio community about contributors to ASR. I find it unfortunate that Amir has found it necessary to have been recently very busy defending ASR on Agon (I am not a member there).

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    It may have been a question which was naive in the circumstances, but to make a mockery of the question which was made in good faith is not humour. I notice that you have a favourite word. Know that when you point your finger, there are three pointing back at you.

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    I disagree with your opinion. ASR is a community - a common noun. It is not a proper noun. What is with this "And just dumb" comment? In psychology there is a concept known as projectionism. I may kindly suggest that you google the meaning of that word.

    What book are you reading?

    I know that Robert Plant was/is a reader of many books - read his many lyrics (a start is Ramble On, or The Battle of Evermore), both from Zep and subsequent solo. He didn't make them up out of thin air. Same with Mick Jagger. He has obviously read the Bible at least once, should you take...

    What book are you reading?

    When I even much younger than your daughter I was reading two books a week. I would sit in the car after Mum picked me up from primary school and just read. I forget. Alistair Mclain, 2001, Heminway whatever. Way over my head. I just did it. I now know that it was crucial in my personal...

    What is a metal floor? Don't most us have at least carpet, or if floorboards perhaps one of those big floor rugs?

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    Well. consider that a fail, audio tony. My cables don't warm up. I am on 10 amp supply, 240 volt. I use a valve amp from time to time which requires a not insubstantial amount of electricity with just standard wall plugs. I have no idea what is going on in Leeds, but I suspect you may wish...

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    I disagree. On ASR the person ought to be provided with the correct advice and treated with respect. There is no such thing as a stupid/funny question if asked in good faith. That some answers have been mocking, this is a reason that ASR may be viewed as unprofessional.

    Clearly you have a wet sense of humour. What is the point of saying things that are not only untrue but dangerous to the naive? Just one reason. No excuses.

    Cheap cable raisers, do they make a difference ?

    Many years ago I shared house with a couple of dudes who were mates from Germany doing a graduate thing in computer stuff in Melbourne. Despite them growing up just 50 kilometers away from each other, they could not understand each other (initially) As for Paul Hogan, he has a very broad nasal...

    Thankyou, you are too kind. A bit like how I cannot understand a lot of the dialogue in the movie A Clockwork Orange.

    I do not understand why some people cannot speak/spell simple English.

    No you don't. They are AC, so you would not be saying such things if what you said was true.
