| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? Great points for this topic Fred. | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints Hornguys,Yes, I had the GPA with 3/4" acrylic shelves and Apex footers. I understand the Carbon Fiber shelves are a nice upgrade over what I had, but I have not had an opportunity to try that.When I got the GPA the amps were just sitting on the fl... | |
| Review: Walker Audio Proscenium Gold Signature Turntable Good for Lloyd, he deserves credit for all his hard work and years of evolving the Walker Proscenium. | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints 03-06-10: Tabl10sAlbert,Physical isolation.Sorry to be so slow responding, I was at Axpona in Florida until late last night. I have only the stock footers under the JL Audio subs. Probably would be a big upgrade with Stillpoints rather then the st... | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints Tabl10s, Don't know about the new rack, but probably not. My equipment is built into the frame and foundation of the house, except for the two outboard custom stands for turntable and tape.When you ask are the subs isolated, do you mean electrical... | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints Albert,Could you expand further on your personal impressions of each stand's relative strengths and weaknesses in the context of your system, and why, ultimately, you opted for the Stillpoints vs. the GPA? The Grand Prix has very bold bass but it'... | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints I've converted to Stillpoints for my amp stands and the GPA are sold. Both are superb products and this test could have been reversed in another room or with another amp or even due to personal taste. The one thing that is not a variable, componen... | |
| Grand Prix versus Stillpoints Saturday I mounted the (4) Stillpoints stands to the VTL amps and gained several square feet of floor space. This is exactly what I needed to accommodate the JL Audio subs. Sound difference between it and GPA could not be more different, I'm sorti... | |
| Are linear tracking arms better than pivoted arms? So let me correct my initial comment on the Triplanar's bearings:it ( the Triplanar ) has of course the one and only best ball-bearings and the bearings used in it are several grades above the best used in any other device on this planet - money n... | |
| IPOD CLASSIC 7th Gen, Apple or WAV? Undertow,However I am using a Sony aftermarket stereo with true USB and DACS, I believe this does bypass the Apple Dacs in this case. ThanksWell, you're ahead of my cars system then because I believe you are right that mine just connects with the ... | |
| IPOD CLASSIC 7th Gen, Apple or WAV? Let me follow up on above, as sometimes comments can't be seen in full light when reading. I fully understand what you were saying in your first post and fully agree, the point I was trying to convey was the possibilities of the iPod at home and r... | |
| IPOD CLASSIC 7th Gen, Apple or WAV? Well, actually the way my iPod will be used is via the USB line, so actually my understanding is that the car stereo will be getting the raw digital signal, not an analog already D/A conversion from the iPod. Apple provides a cable with their conn... | |
| IPOD CLASSIC 7th Gen, Apple or WAV? One pet peeve of mine is that the iPod is talked of in a negative light, such as, "an iPod is not going to compete with a nice in home CD", this I do not agree with, nor due a number of reviewers.The question concerned use of iPod in a car, that t... | |
| Cardas Cables I have a great deal of respect for George Cardas. One only need look all the years he's produced superb products for the high end community to understand that statement. His RCA connectors, speaker connectors and cables are among the best in the b... | |
| IPOD CLASSIC 7th Gen, Apple or WAV? I had exactly your experience, bought a car with iPod plug in the glove box and controls on the steering wheel :^).I transferred a bunch of my favorite CDs into iTunes via Apple Lossless and listen in the car and sometimes for long trips, with Ult... |
