Hey guys! i'm new to these audio stuff. So i was wondering if anyone would help me out? i'm looking for good computer sound system for the price of $500. I am not an avid gamer but i do play games. However, i do listen to A LOT of music,mostly metal, rock and blues. Basically,more emphasis is on music than gaming. Thx a lot guys. Really appreciate all your inputs. And Merry Christmas to all! =D

I am playing with my iMAC. I seldom use it as the rest of my computers are PC's. I have removed 90% of the programs and files from it and have installed Channel D Pure Music software...Now the question. It appears I can run a Toslink optical digital out from the iMAC. I need to run a Toslink cable maybe 25 ft to my DAC...I have never tied to run an optical cable so far...

I know the optical cables are less than optimum but my DAC only has an optical input unused. What is the limit for a Toslink conection??

Hello,

I cleaned an old record that I had just purchased with my normal cleaning regimen (MOFI Super Deep Cleaner + Nitty Gritty record cleaning liquid on the machine). When I played the record, at the end when I raised the stylus, I noticed it was covered with a black, ash-like substance (like cigarette ash). It completely covered the stylus so that for a second I thought the stylus had broken off.

I then recleaned it with MOFI's enzymatic cleaner followed by a steam clean, and then the Nitty Gritty again. On playing the record, I had the same result, just slightly less ash.
