PSE Studio 4 amplifier - any good? Pleased to hear that Dean (PSE) is still producing a world class product as always. He is a terrific person and a great engineer.Years ago when no one was discussing the subject, he was instrumental in getting me to upgrade my electrical system. I... | |
Superb PHONO Preamp ? Thomasheisig, Albert Porter here. You will most likely recall our email discussions 6 months ago where I advised you that the Io was to eventually be available as a "Signature" version. You were interested in one at that time, and still appear to ... | |

PSE Studio 4 amplifier - any good? Are you referring to Professional Systems Engineering of Minnesota, or one of the other two high end audio companies with the name PSE? | |
Change Single-Ended to Balanced input? Surprised not already mentioned, are the adaptors that go from single ended to balanced or the other way around. No mods required.Probably several sources, the one I am certain makes a great adaptor is Purist Audio Design. | |
My 1st TT your thoughts, please? Your best bet for vinyl at a cheap price is the local used book and record store. The big one in Texas is Half Price Books and Records. Most areas in the country have similar places where you can beef up your collection for very little money. I of... | |

Any Subs Linn Sondek Oil 1,000,000.00 a gallon If you can afford a Linn LP12, you should not object to $5.00 for oil. That is like buying a new car and complaining that motor oil is too expensive. | |

What is the BEST resistor for audio use A great idea from Tom Nice!If anyone tries his idea I would like to read a report of how various resistors sounded, and in what equipment. Would be a learning experience for everyone. | |
Big sub-woofer sitting on carpet HELP I agree with Mcne, except that steel shot is magnetic, not always a great idea on top of speakers with magnets. If you cannot find lead shot at a shooting supply, try finding it at a dive shop. Dive lead for scuba, is coated in copper to conform t... | |
What is the BEST resistor for audio use RE: An abruptly awakened spouse. Generally falling into four well developed levels of resistance. First, an audio receptor. Second, a music critic. Third, a dancer shuffling to the beat as they enter.Last, sounding like an angry rock group, prote... | |
