It was mentioned that inflationary tactics have a tendency to lure the buyer.
Of course, that simply plays with willful minds and perceptions.
Like McIntosh equipment, Marantz, etc., and those esoteric products of today.
As for me, my head's not in the clouds, and my feet are planted on earth.
Once could call me sensible, aligned with reality.
To me there is a threshold - such as the use of low temp flammable materials, unsafe electrical design/work. This would have repercussions on house insurance in the even of a fire.
There is value in a design performance, in the aesthetic and in the difference of hand made by a craftsman.
Market value of what the seller thinks vs what the ill prepared buyer valuation vs a prepared/professional buyer are three separate things. So irrespective of the seller or the cost of the materials - I will evaluate the value for me.
Hell I don’t know even if they have bought a set of tires out tubes off the junk shop that a tester would reject. However given the quality of the inside, the lack of workmanship (cheap investment) would make me question the components, the design and the performance.
Yes a PCB by B&O would make the wiring neater.. however then that hasn’t said anything about the sound..
The U.K. has a saying that “you can’t polish a ****” (rhymes with herd) and those that do don’t tend to last long in the industry.

I agree. Social media went right to the lowest common denominator. I think it's a major contributor to the demise of the US. My fellow countryman have become very, very stupid.
I always do that. In fact, thanks to youtube I have rediscovered some of my old favorite bands, and some of them are way better now than they were back in the day. Wishbone Ash and King Krimson are two that come to mind; they have matured into virtuosos. I would never have known without youtube, because radio plays complete crapola and wouldn't play Wishbone Ash in a million years.
Not at all if the mains supply is properly done - it would just trip the RCD breaker. No fire. No 'murder'. 😉
Assuming one has an RCD breaker. I've been in plenty of old rentals in London with bakelite fuses that you have to string some fuse wire when they blow...
Not to be trusted...

I think that just may be due to advertising scripts. I've got adblocker and it loads fine without any redirects.
Maybe Mykhailo Malega, "Brand, Product Developer and Marketer. SEO and Amazon Sales Expert", has improved his product offering since the website was created in 2015? Perhaps he learned his craft in those years since and deserves a break?

>you just gotta have some common sense to know what to pick to dabble in.
That statement pretty much goes for the whole internet...
Which is why I always start my day with DIYAudio!

" A good Tube Pre-Amplifier and a Tube Phono Stage are an essential part of any serious audiophile, as it prepares your musical signal at its best form, due to high gain of tubes, before it sent to your power amplifier.
The Pre-Amplifier designed based on Jean Hiraga, highly respected in High-end audio industry.
The Phono Amplifier (MC Cartridge) based on Dynaco schematic as a base idea, and further modified based on extensive listening tests. "
I think the chosen circuit is good, the practical implementation is something else ! 😀

Any and all Electrical regulation boards would take a dim look at your "safety" standards.
I for one would NEVER EVER hire you as an Electrician. 😡
The RCD breaker is the SECOND defense line in case of accident, and good practice dictates that Safety measures should be redundant.
Your "advice" amounts to: "why do preventive Airplane maintenance? .... just give every passenger his own parachute" 🙄
I repurpose boxes all the time, but at least I try to cover up the extra holes.... I'm a notorious cheapskate, and often the box is more expensive than all the innards. Having said that, I don't then try to foist those projects on unsuspecting consumers.
Yes, and it depends on the cutting speed, which in some cases is very high. (cheap differential circuit breakers)
The heart fibrillates the same with currents of a few milliamperes.
But if you have a regular performance differential circuit breaker on hand, and one of these, and the buyer wants to take risks .....
Attachments
The RCD breaker (we call them ground fault circuit interrupters here) trips if there's a current imbalance between the hot and neutral.
The more traditional circuit breaker protects the wiring, but does not protect you against a shock at all.
I have done tests and you do not feel a tickle if the sensitivity of the differential circuit breaker is high.
That was many years ago ...😉
the response time of the switch must be 50 milliseconds, guaranteeing adequate protection of people.

Sometimes my heart flutters when a musical passage with a lot of dynamic range breaks out!
Yes, music can be dangerous to health .....😱
