| 6922 tube brands; the best and avarage for my SFL2 To say that 7308's is your best bet, as a blanket statement, does you a disservice, Hiendmmoe. There is a variety of tonality and quality among the 6dj8, 6922, 7308 family AND variety within each type. In other words, some 6dj8's will sound better... | |
| My wife touched my turntable - help please My advice, if desired...tell your wife she did a GOOD thing by lifting the arm at record's end. Tell her she has the makings of an expert and show her how to cue the arm properly, using cueing arm and by "hand". Go a step further and show her the ... | |
| Nottingham Space Deck Table...... I've owned the Spacedeck for about one year and have two arms mounted (see system). Rjones gives a pretty good description in his discussion of the Interpsace and the Spacedeck is even more of the same. One thing I find with the Spacedeck is how t... | |
| Dedicated Audio Room Plans.... I shall scale the Everest mount to learn what I can. Would appreciate any and all suggestions from others, while thanking those who have contributed thus far.Rives, your site is certainly well constructed, I'm sure you do good work, and I'd wager ... | |
| Helpful Hint When Cleaning Records Kinsekd, did you buy yours new or used? If used, I suspect someone "glued" the foam mat to the platter. You could try to vacuum it a bit, but I might suggest removing the foam mat altogether and replace with cork or rubber. Cheap solution. | |
| 2000 for turntable and arm..... As with Twl, everyone knows what I will say. Assuming you've additional budget for the cartridge (you've said TT and arm), I'd throw a few more quid in the Symphony Sound ante and get a Spacedeck with Spacearm (used) and be happy for many, many ye... | |
| Helpful Hint When Cleaning Records Yes, that does work well, Herman. My VPI originally came with a foam mat that wasn't attached to the platter, though. In the past I have also ordered cork mats for about $5 that have "stickem" on the back. They are easily replaced if they started ... | |
| Amp/Preamp Synergy for 6K Used $6K for an integrated? I've always heard of the compromises to expect with integrateds. How is this one different? I assume you refer to the VK-300x. Sounds good from the literature, but I am a bit skeptical about the modular desgin - adding super... | |
| Amp/Preamp Synergy for 6K Used Thanks for the responses, so far. I don't seem to hear many recommendations for CJ products on this site. Why is that? | |
| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em I have been somewhat entertained by the proponents on both "sides" of this issue. The only thing that was actually "proven", though, was the notion that fur would fly.Despite of Uncle Fester's tone at times, there was some decent advice. There is ... | |
| A Little Hypocrisy? I would be the last to defend the price of CD's, not that I buy all that many anymore. But, Tok20000, and with all due respect, when you say "HOWEVER, when you break it all down, a record production company is marking CDs up way higher than Audio ... | |
| No computer?? ...not to mention that you can put a brochure/literature on your table to be much more easily and causally looked and/or shared with someone else at a later moment. In addition, many do not have quality PRINTING capabilities that will allow them t... | |
| Where do I position 4 speakers for 3D stereo sound As a former owner (in another lifetime) of Pioneer 949 and Marantz 4400 receivers, ESS Satellite 4 speakers (bet few ever heard of THEM), a thorens TT with an AT quad cartridge, and a Teac reel-to-reel, I agree with Twl that they never quite got i... | |
| Kora Galaxy + Velodyne Sub + Wadia 25 + Tyler Mon Ask Joe at JCAudio (jcaudio.com). He posts here under the name jcaudio (imagine that!), is a reputable and authorized dealer for Kora, and certainly could answer your Q. | |
| Santana "Shaman" Released 10/22 No need to resort to hand-wringing about Santana "going pop". These charges have been leveled at least three times during his career, in my memory, at least. Shaman is what, Santana's 37th album of songs? He has always tried tinkering on the edges... |
