| Best upgrade ever: cryo outlet for my refrigerator What you are hearing is part of what you get by using one breaker and dedicated line for each component in the system. This is exactly why I have 14 dedicated breakers. The cost to have dedicated wiring (assuming you own the place) is reasonable, ... | |
| Stylus cleaning: tools, fluids, techniques? Record Research fluid is distributed by the same people that import the Benz, Clear Audio and Koetsu cartridge lines. I seriously doubt they sell a product that puts all these cartridges in harms way. | |
| The Recording Producer Depends on the engineer and the artist they are working with. Digital artists like Bjork leave less room for the engineer / producer to effect the end results. By contrast, recent American Records sessions of Johnny Cash are almost as elegantly en... | |
| Bybee quantum filters for speakers Perhaps these work as well as the Walker HDL's. I get similar results (even) with high end speakers and high end wire. Perhaps they're similar concepts, delivered by two different companies. | |
| The Crazy World of Arthur Brown Richard Pryor did the flaming bit too but I don't think it was on purpose. | |
| What do your kids see? I always let my son sit and listen with me, even when he was a baby. He learned to operate the equipment not long after he could walk. I never told him "no," instead I showed him how everything worked and helped him.The only off limits thing was t... | |
| Dust residue after carbon fiber brush cleaning I had the same problem with carbon fibre brushes, perhaps it is their nature? I've had very good luck with the Decca brand record brush. It has two different lengths of bristle (one each side), allowing the user to choose cleaning pressure. | |

| Dallas Fort-Worth Phono Stage Shootout Which city, Dallas or Ft. Worth. What are the other pieces in the system? | |
| where to start analog You should begin here at Audiogon. For instance, there is a Well Tempered table and arm advertised for $750.00. That is a great table, very speed accurate and very quiet. If you like the analog sound, you are off to a good start. If you are disapp... | |
| What tubes for ARC LS 5 preamp - 6922/6DJ8 That is a good suggestion and offer for you Audiotomb. The tube Ed is suggesting absolutely will work in that circuit and is a bit warmer than the Military 7308. Either will murder the Sovtek you have been listening to. | |
| What tubes for ARC LS 5 preamp - 6922/6DJ8 Unfortunately this is a very difficult tube to get as NOS and the ones that sound good are continuing to increase in price. There are no good new 6DJ8 / 6922 / 7308 tubes being manufactured (in my opinion).The Amperex 7308 may be best for your nee... | |
