| Which Cord Are U Using On Your Stealth? Ken, I posted this somewhere else but I tried five different PC's ranging in retialprice from 200-600 clams from the Stelath to the wall outlet (cryoed Hubbell). I found little appreciable difference with the cords in this position so I settled on... | |
| Which Cord Are U Using On Your Stealth? Warren, as you know, I also have the Stealth and think very highly of its performance. I currently have amp, phono stage, tuner, CDP, and TT plugged into the Stealth. Let me ask you this. When you used the Mini separately for your digital, did you... | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? ....green paper that is minted only on selected presses, Psychic? | |
| 3 or 4 cones under speakers /cdp which better WHY Along the lines of what Marty has said, I always thought that the key was to place cones/points under the areas of the component which are most vulnerable to vibrational effects FIRST, then distribute the other one or two to provide balance and ov... | |
| Newbie to analog: Hi end rigs $2-5K on used market Since it is exactly what I have, Danduy, I'd agree, but would be souding like a broken record. | |
| What cartridge works for you ??? You might be able to find a Shelter 501 from a friendly dealer for $700. If you can't, wait, save the extra 100 clams, and buy the Shelter, then. | |
| Speaker Suggestion for teenage pre-stereophile I was going to offer something similar to Bomarc and suggest a pair of PSB Image 2B's with stands and a decent cable. He'll still have a bit left for music. These speakers sound very nice in my son's first college setup and perform a lot better th... | |
| Name three of yours the most favourite drummers Yep, Rosstaman, anyone who ever banged the skins is a favorite. | |
| Name three of yours the most favourite drummers Always been partial to Bill Bruford in all of his many "lives", as others have mentioned. John Bonahm was awesome and underrated for his contributions to LZ, albeit overrated for his contributions to debauchery (well maybe not). Kudos to Jla for m... | |
| Phono Stage for passive preamp control John, thanks for the input, which may benefit others considering the Bent, or for me in the furuter, for that matter. For now, I am currently awaiting delivery of a custom-designed tube/hybrid phono stage being built for me after consulting with K... | |
| Help with value of Pink Floyd collection Not sure of your age but, if it were me, and, if I wasn't hard up for the money, I'd hang on to the lot and pass it down the family chain later. | |
| If you could have 2 turntables... Like Twl, who likes to suggest Teres (a fine choice), I generally suggest Nottingham. One thing to consider is a Spacedeck with an extra arm pod to allow for two separate arms and pickups. Can be cheaper in the long run than a second table, and st... | |
| Purchasing used lps on Audiogon In retrospect, I feel it was unfair of me to merely say that the dealer to whom I referred was mentioned by Sc53 and RShak, since there are only two and the other may well possess the very soul of propriety. Let's just say the dealer's handle did ... | |
| Single Channel Attenuator With respect to Mouser. They are great for parts, especially of very hard to find illumination blubs. But, beware of shipping changes (ask first). If not, you can pay $6.00 UPS to have a $2.00 part delivered. Unless they have changed, they automat... | |
| Purchasing used lps on Audiogon I bought two LP's, both described as "one of the best copies you will see" (or something very close to that effect) from one of the higher volume sellers that Rshak and Sc53 mention. I one case, the LP was cupped. In the other, the LP was RIPPLE w... |
