| Dust residue after carbon fiber brush cleaning Yes, and the method used by Twl are exactly those as contained in the instruction sheet for the Hunt. The "grounding" suggestion offered by the King of Cylinders is wise, and effective. As cumbersome as it can be, I usually do the brushing while h... | |
| Black Diamond Racing/VPI Vibration Control Make sure to experiment with the placement and "directionality" of BDR cones, if you use them. I tried a few different cones/points under my amp which was already sitting on a Osiris Giza stand on its own points and pucks filled with about 40 lbs ... | |
| Top This Albert - intend to have the entire package cryoed and left submerged until the music, and you, can be played once again? :-) | |
| How important is speaker positioning?My experience Trejla, very nice post and a spot-on accounting of my own experience. Amazing the difference of even an inch movement, huh? It is worth the time spent to get it right.We recently moved and my older son said, mournfully, that he bet it would take m... | |
| $1,500 to spend on a tubed full function pre With your Cosmos, I'd get the Kora Eclipse pre and call it a day - and a very good match! You'll have to spring for just a bit more than the $1500 you mention, though. The phono stage portion (SS), in my opinion, is at least equal to the EAR in so... | |
| Where can I get my power cables cry'oed? Albert, I assume that NASA won't take requests from just anyone to have just anything cryoed. Or am I wrong? Where, in your opinion, is the best place to turn failing the ability to use NASA's facilties.Does anyone have experience with any PC's, I... | |
| where to start analog I will let others recommend specific products since some here seem to have tried everything. Not that ohers will, but neither Albert nor Twl will lead you astray with respect to vinyl. I have my favorites, based on my satisfied, though relatively ... | |
| DIY acoustic room treatments You know, I made some of the Jon Risch tube traps (16-inchers) some time ago and they worked to great effect. When I moved, I decided that they were looking a little "gamey". I auditioned some retail traps, the names of which will go unspoken, but... | |
| Anybody have their original Stealth Cryoed? Alan, I am encouraged by your post as I, too, was contemplating having my Stealth cryoed to go along with the cryoed outlets I have acquired through the good graces of Albert Porter. Is there any advantage to having the Stealth cryoed from one pla... | |
| Nottingham Horizon Info? Below is a link to a picture of one. Not the greatest looking table, but to each his or her own. I have heard that this table sounds very good for the money (consistent with 'Not) and that they expect big sales. Sorry, I can't help more with techn... | |
| $500-600 Used Tuner Hey, thanks a lot to you all for the input. I was gone for a day and came back to the surprise of so much response. My "current" tuner is a Sony ST-3950SD, a decent tuner in its day which I bought new in about '79 and it really does a fairly good ... | |
| Design Plans or Kits for LP storage Rack Arcmania-Iron Butterfly, Ronstad, Art Pepper(great LP), Eagles, Supertramp? Nice wide variety, there. Personally, I like your setup very much but, sadly, don't think it would pass the WAF in my home. Maybe if I used 1.5" solid red oak, used some n... | |
| Design Plans or Kits for LP storage Rack I built all my own storage shelving for the 2500+ LP's I have collected over the years because I have had experience in furniture building and have the tools to do the job correctly.I experimented with a few designs and finally chucked the idea of... | |
| Is a Phono required? Which is exactly what I did Leftist. You WON'T regret making the change. "Give" all of the umptee.1 stuff to your wife, if you have one, for the TV room. She'll love you for it and you'll get your own "stuff". | |
| Choices for long 5m IC - Preamp to Amp In the words of Emily Litella (Gilda Radner), "Never mind". After some further research Ive decided to go a different route. This thread can sink ignominiously to the bottom of the heap! |
