List of abbreviations

Two acronyms that cause confusion: IC and RS.
In electronics land IC is an Integrated Circuit, RS is RS components (a major industry supplier).
In HiFi land they mean interconnect and Richer Sounds.

 

I have this site bookmarked, however some of the more specialised Hi-Fi forum speak might need some independant working out.

I used to go on management courses peopled by twunts who thought that using acronyms invested them with power and knowledge. They used to hate it when I'd interrupt and always ask what everyone that they used meant whether or not I already knew.
