When To Throw In The Towel On A Piece Of Hifi Gear

from The Hifi Podcast with Darren and Duncan · host Duncan Taylor, Darren Myers

Hifi audio can be finicky. Quite a few things can get in the way of showing off the potential magic of a component, making the buying process a rather maddening endeavor.Whether it's that the component isn't burned in yet, or it needs cabling with different electrical qualities, or whether, once inserted into a system, it then points to and shows off a weakness somewhere else in the chain.These are just some of the issues that get in the way of a new owner falling in love with a piece of gear, and in this episode of the Hifi Podcast, hosts Darren and Duncan talk about how to deal with these things while managing the window of return and other considerations.This week's album of the week is intriguing, as it offers Duncan an opportunity to gush (without regulation, it would seem) about one of his favorite musicians of all time.  This podcast is powered by CommonGround Cables Whisper power cable.
