| Clearaudio Classic Wood vs Grado Gold? My clearaudio wood had a factory defect. Stylus was mounted to the cantilever with a 20 degree forward tilt. I ended up buying a microscope and putting several tiny strips of paper between the front of the cartridge and the mount to achieve vta. I... | |
| what does everybody think about 120hz and lcd's I bought a Sony 52XBR about 8 months ago. It's personal preference, but I do not like glossy reflective screens. Seems like plasma was especially glossy. I also have a Samsung BD player. I am very impressed by it's ability to upconvert regular DVD... | |
| Crossovers The answer is most likely yes. A first order XO on a tweeter limits the low frequency signal sent to the tweeter, below the crossover point, at the rate of 6db per octave. Second order is 12 db rate, third is 18db rate, and forth is 24db rate of c... | |
| Does your system sound better or worse? Don't know if it is better, but it is definately louder....and a very good way to fry a few resistors and a tube or two. | |
| Replacing speaker grill cloth questions???? Spread out some newspapers. Cut cloth 2" bigger than the grilles. Lay cloth down on the papers. Lay grille on cloth. Cut paper to fit inside the grille and cover the cloth so you don't get adhesive on that part of the cloth. Spray adhesive (I use ... | |
| HBO copy protects it shows. Tab110s.....and anyone else.....currently, what can we, and what can't we, do in terms of copying Hi-Def on a PC? I study this from time to time, and always get confused. | |
| HBO copy protects it shows. Which is why I, and this my opinion, find all the new digital formats boring. I had a blast with my VCRs copying whatever I wanted to. It made video fun. I can't even name a current heavyweight boxer today (thank goodness I was around for free Muh... | |

| Changing speaker cloth You can buy grill cloth from places like Madisound and Meniscus. Attach it with 3M Super 77 spray adhesive, available at hardware stores. My speakers sound better without the grills also. Just have to convince the cat that they are not for his ent... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Belkin Surge Master from Home Depot has five perfectly spaced, upright, plugs for the Synergistic transformer plugs. Very nice green metal case with on/off switch. No kidding, it's perfect. | |
| Subsonic filter wish and a solution I swear, you guys, I did not mean to ressurect the same discussion. On the other hand, it is good discussion. I was watching my tonearm track a record last night. Record is tightly clamped down, cartridge is moving side to side and up and down as ... | |
| Subsonic filter wish and a solution Eldartford....there was one basic misunderstanding in that first thread. It was that I am dealing with a subwoofer. I am not. This is a pair of stereo speakers. That is why I did not find summing to mono at 180Hz a solution. As far as the inductor... | |
| Seas Millennium Break-in time By the time we break everything in, something is going to wear out. I vote for it sounding very good from day one or maybe a percieved change as the suspension of the cone drivers limber up. | |
| Anyone wish they had a rumble subsonic filter? Eldartford.....no but I figure about the price of a Corvette. I am with out a cartridge for the moment, so woofer problems have to wait till I solve that issue. |
