Many loudspeakers come with five-way binding posts, allowing a choice of connectors. Others are specific to one type of connector. How do you terminate your speaker cables on the speaker end?
It is flood plus 33 days and I have tunes again! Well, tunes over something besides headphones. I got a replacement Denon receiver for my trusty but drowned Denon AVR 3810 or something. The new unit was on HUGE discount at Amazon, I got the Denon AVR3310CI. It has 5 hdmi in and should be able to read my hard drive directly, which could be interesting as I have a ton of cd and higher material on the hard drive.
I have now had my Touch for coming up to two months and am overall still delighted with the SQ and overall value-for-money. However it hasn't all been plain sailing. Having lived with a Sonos system for about four years now my initial impression is that the Slim/Squeeze/Whateveritscalledthisweek software environment pales by comparison. In short, my impression is that it is clunky, sluggish and flaky. Some examples:
John Wooden was one.
""Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books -- especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day."

I posted about this in the other thread but it seems to be getting worse. Plus, my fiance notices too.

When you look straight DOWN over the platter, you can see the needle from back and for from left to right...I'm pretty sure it's not the record being warped?
Given that I don't know really how these things yet (but want to learn) any tips on how I might fix this?
Hi
Listneing last night to a solo violin fill a large concert hall with the single brush of the bow against a string, it got me thinking what exactly generates the sound in an instrument ?
If we assume that energy has to be transformed into sound waves where does that energy come from in say a violin player ? the phyiscal energy expanded to draw a bow accross the strings is minimal yet it fills the hall with sound ? if this was an amplifier violin it would require many times the electrical energy to create the sound waves ?
All this talk about Ted Denny's bowels got me to thinking.
Wouldn't a high fiber diet take care of things?
Wouldn't the absorptive properties of fiber turn us into organic bass traps?
