    Do you have a favourite song?

    For my own personal use, I am trying to compile a playlist of my Top 1000 songs. However, I am sure that I have forgotten a few classics along the way and so I am curious as to what everyone else would nominate as their one, all-time, favourite song. The one that's always overplayed. Your sine...

    Some Canada Day fun for everyone, because who doesn’t love a good ole’ ASR poll? :facepalm: Would you rather have a (lower power but incredible clarity) Benchmark AHB2 or a (lower clarity, higher power) NAD C298?

    Cantilever Repair?

    In a freak accident, I managed to bend the cantilever in a virtually brand new Goldring cartridge. It now sits at a 90 degree angle to the base. I tried to straighten it and pretty sure I made it much worse. Does anyone know if this can be repaired (clearly not by me)or do I need to take my...

    More (Different?) Subwoofer Questions...

    I know that there is a currently active thread right now with some basic subwoofer questions (which I have been following), but I have a different use case and therefore I hope the members will indulge me here... I have a small, audio-only, listening room with a pair of relatively compact...
