Manners, Eticks & Audiogon --- What do you think???
Asa has it right in that the problem is ANONYMITY. Regardless, this is the best website on the planet and most of the people here are just too good to believe. 
Speaker placement along the long wall

Audiogoners, I love you........
I have four passions other than family. I flyfish and can't begin to tell you how generous other flyfishers are. I drag race and have multiple stories to tell about the kindness of others involved with this sport. I love music and feel that others... 
Speaker placement along the long wall

The most musical system you ever build?
My Linn Aktiv system is by far the most musical system I have ever had. Especially so when I consider the enjoyment when listening to lesser recordings. Let's face it, stellar recordings play back well on all systems.The Down From The Mountain tou... 
Buying and Selling of feedback
A Sanctuary of Sound seems like a class act. This does sound like another Ebay type of thing and I expect it rarely happens here. Negative feedback should be deserved and I agree we should all go the distance to get along. 
Buying and Selling of feedback

Linn Linto vs Audio Research PH3
I have heard the LP12/Arkiv/Linto combination and feel that it will be hard to top this combination. These pieces were designed to work as one so will posess a synergy that is hard to find through other manufacturers components. The benefit beyond... 
Speaker ohm's?????

high end audio insurance?
Guys,I really learned a lot about insurance while I was trying to insure my hotrod for something resembling my investment. Just because you have "replacement" value type homeowners insurance does not mean a check will be written for the full value... 
high end audio insurance?
Lake,Your homeowners insurance agent should be able to do what is called a rider for all the stuff in question. If not, find another company. Read the documents well. Go for a stated value. Remember to update the stated value periodically.If you c...
