| Musical Fidelity X-LP2 MC gain Thanks Pawlowski. The 350mV sensitivity is, I think, a misprint. Should read .350mV or 350uV. If that is the fact, then the calculator thingy comes up with 57dB. Peeked at your system....very nice! | |
| Need some help soldering Binding posts. I'm no expert, but I have soldered Kimber hook-up to Cardas copper posts recently. The one thing is, it takes a bit of time to get the post hot enough to melt the silver solder. Put the tip on the post and the wire and leave it there. I keep touch... | |
| Upgrading crossover caps in a PSB Image 5T Can you describe your speaker, and what you do see. Not all caps are round. Sometimes the crossover is attached to the terminal cup. | |
| Wife/girlfriend or audio: if you had to chose? "Thank God and Greyhound She's Gone" Sorry couldn't resist it:)) Now if I can just get my cat to move outta the sweet spot... | |
| Micro-ridge styli I don't think you need "high power" to view the stylus. 30x to 50x should do it. I just bought a Peak 50x microscope that works very well because it has a clear plastic base that allows you to set it on the kitchen table and focus on the stylus. A... | |
| Can I measure my tube amp's output? Both channels measure the same. Insert Q-tip in left ear. Vigorously clean until left channel output equal to right channel output. | |
| Can I measure my tube amp's output? I guess it doesn't make much sense to measure in mono. You know it's amazing how many stinking problems I seem to have. I wanna just sit back and listen, but there is always something bugging me........grrrrrr. | |
| What does a vinyl record groove look like? Mark! That is an amazing picture! Probably the best example of a picture being worth a thousand words I have ever seen. Thanks, Doug, I knew I was missing something. I am having a big problem with a defective cartridge right now but I am one of th... | |
| How high is your soundstage? I agree with Boa2 and your own feelings about the room. I hated my system in very room of my house except my ugly basement room with no drywall. Your room is probably too small....and those (awesome) amps make it look even smaller :) My soundstage... | |
| Best TT under 2K? Wow....I agree with Raul. | |
| If you had to pay full retail, would you...??? In the days before Audiogon and Ebay there were better deals to be had locally on used equipment. These are better days in most ways, but I don't plan on finding another MC-2205 for $500 in my local newspaper. I wonder what the discount is on a Ma... | |
| Speaker disappearing act? I think I agree with just about everything you guys are saying. I did a post a while back trying to ask other members to describe their soundstage. Granted that is hard to do, but also so very interesting to hear about. I once stuck an old Luxman ... | |

| Recommend digital source for opera & classical? Another vote for Wadia. Also look up information about the modifications available from Steve at Great Northern Sound for the Wadia. info@greatnorthernsound.com. I wish I could have him work on my 850, but he can no longer get the parts to upgrade... |
