    'Audiophile' power fuses

    They all have that 'stink eye' thing going on in the AI image. Either one of them farted during that 'photo', or yeah, it's an instantly-recogniseable AI glitch.

    'Audiophile' power fuses

    I asked for proof that they make any difference to a signal and I got the stock answer 'If you don't like them you can always send them back' Well, I offer a similar service for my cables, but at least I actually publish manufacturer specs and my own measurements for my cables such as...

    'Audiophile' power fuses

    Personally, I think these are one of the most ludicrous snake-oil opportunities that exist in hifi and there are plenty of peddlers. How can a relatively simple, single-component device that's designed to protect from over-voltage make such a claimed significant audible/sonic difference within a...

    Thoroughly modern lesbians....

    ...including some thoroughly gratuitous bedside cabinet R2R action :O

    NAD 6300

    Do you have the means to do a full calibration jim? I noticed the manual has decent instruction for adjusting all levels including for the DYNEQ feature. W&F (JIS) a bit optimistic at 0.025% maybe (?) Many are using NAKT100 software but fkd if I'm paying MS/Apple anything these days. I'm using...

    NAD 6300

    If this deck was on my to-do list Jim, well tbh it wouldn't be- it's too far-gone and corroded for my liking, but if I was going to tackle something with this level of internal corrosion I'd be considering stripping it down completely as the idea of any particles or bits of...

    NAD 6300

    This may have been easier than I had anticipated... Let me know if the link works: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8xj66oq904ahpqx/nad_6300_service.pdf?st=k482e1jy&dl=0

    NAD 6300

    I would if I could, but sadly I can't as i'm still languishing in hosi unfortunately :/ If I can get dropbox working on my phone and I can downlaod and upload it from there...or maybe share a link or something then maybe that's helpful? I have a bunch of NAD manuals I downloaded from hifiengine...

    NAD 6300

    Reminds me of the 6340 I gave up refurbing. I decided my time was worth more than fretting how to get the damn thing apart and the blood pressure increases when I got flummoxed by it. You may find areas that have been bonded/glued together as in the 6340. A heat gun comes in handy if so... Good...

    Gene Hackman gone at 95

    So Gene had a cardiac arrest, revealed by his pacemaker data. Discovered by a maintenance worker after 9 days deceased. Dog died of dehydration. Her death is still being investigated and may have occurred some time after his after some 'time-disparities' have now been established. Either way...

    Gene Hackman gone at 95

    Yeah. stands to reason though- when you're as reclusive as they obviously were then it's going to be most likely down to whoever you're in frequent contact with that eventually discovers you. In this case it looks like the maintenence workers who rocked up every couple of weeks or so. I give...

    Funny pictures...

    Well, whether you believe in conspiracies or not, prices are nefariously planned and manipulated to suit federal/global plans. I don't really like Eric Berg but some of his videos/content seem credible sometimes...

    Funny pictures...

    My neighbours had chickens. There's a mutual disdain between us so I never got any eggs. That's ok. Their kitchen doesn't get any sunlight in the morning because of my conifers. Win, win. Or is it lose, lose?

    Gene Hackman gone at 95

    Was shocked and saddened in equal measures at the news. Looks like double suicide from statements made. Pills scattered around floor where she was found. French Connection 1 and 2 are my alltime favourite films and this is where I know him from principally. Like some of his other work too...
