    New Study Shows that half of Vinyl Buyers in the US Don’t own turntables

    these guys will buy it because in 20 to 25 years time people with turntables will buy it from them at vastly inflated prices because it is no longer in print - so they will make huge markups even after adjusting for inflation - i mean lots of people in the states do this with sneakers (takkies)...

    Smart TV Apps via optical...

    Most likely because via the digital output it is trying to play multi channel surround sound but you only now have front left and right only playing - since it isn't downmixing the audio from your video playback so all the sounds that should be playing from the center and surrounds as well as...

    Pay it forward

    you could incorporate a "pay it forward" initiative in the freebies section  :thinking: i mean a person who receives a free item could and should be encouraged to pay that kindness forward when they have items that are not of a ridiculously large value where the only option is to resell to...

    Hi-Fi Headphones vs Bluetooth

    look - if you are a person to whom the audio reproduction has to cater to your preferences then fair do - Bluetooth is fine - it can cater to many peoples preferences - but Bluetooth even in its highest form is equivalent to an mp3 - so it cannot be as good as proper lossless ...... and every...
