Hi Piedpiper, Listen, I presented an idea or theory as I first called it for discussion. I said I was sorry for my reference to some famous people, and to make it more clear, let me say that I am in no way shape or form like great men of the past,...

Hi Wgh, Yes I thought about that, and I do have mixed feelings and thoughts on this. I believe, though, that I have achieved the correct approach on this also. Assuming that all LPs have a baseline noise and feel (that completeness that we listen ...

Hi Jaybo, Exactly. But what makes an incorrect pressing as you mentioned better? Turning it up does not help if it was pressed too loud and turning it down does not help if pressed low. What helps this LP? Nothing, if it is wrong. Though as I said...

Hello, Hi Newbee, Timrhu. What I think we are dealing with first off is energy, there is only so much energy available in the our LPs grooves. It is to our benifit to have that energy available to us as much as possible at all times. Now the idea ...

Hi Newbee, my thoughts are just that sometimes, mine. And here is the difficult part with music, that when one reveals themself as an artist, a participant, an enthusiast one opens their soul which can be revealing and perhaps a bit scarey. I most...

Hi Newbee, sorry for the comparisons, and the misspelling (I apologise to Galileo's daughter as I did just read "her" book several months ago) but really just in jest, OK. I dont take myself or you that seriously. Please I do not want to get into ...

Hi Mechans, First off it was not a diatribe, obsessive compulsive? Perhaps. Certainly not tongue in cheek. But why would I spend so much time and energy on audiophile persuasion only to listen to my system like a cheap car radio?As I said the Monk...

Hi Gregm, Well thats just the start of it as I have said it is dependant on your systems limitations but regardless of that, start off listening at one setting. Is your system good at this level? OK, listen to another then another LP are they good...

Hi guys and gals, Dopogue and Timruh, trust me you can take my post very seriously. This is something that occured to me after many years of listening. I have stated before that I never listen casually, you know doing the dishes, reading and talki...

Hi Atmasphere, we may disagree on this but at least we agree on Laverdas! We cant be too far out. I will have to answer your and WGH respones tomorrow as I am going out now to listen tonight, and need to contemplate for good responses. At least I ...

Hi Viridian, I like your analogy to a car. If you keep the throttle (volume control) steady you will actually go faster downhill (increase volume) and slower uphill (decreased volume-aka dynamics). Unless of course if you are using cruise contol t...

Hi Newbee, It is not anything to do with distortion or feedback or limitations of my system, wow, did I say that?. We are trying to "reproduce a recording". At a certain level you have dynamics and a natural level on an recording, whether the engi... 
One's trash is someone else's treasure
Hi, By best trash to treasure story for audio is....My local dump AKA recycling station has a "Take it or Leave it". A place to put unwanted goods if you dont want to put them on Ebay, want to have a tag sale or feel its just to good to be put in ...

Hi Atmasphere, I will be there if the V6 shows up, though I will be there no matter what. I am also going this year, dont know what I will bring this year (perhaps my Bimota SB2) but I will definatly have the SFC there next year. Here is a link to...
