| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? Sean, Try Stupid Dream or Signify | |
| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? Bdgregory, Their sound has changed since they signed with a major lable. I think their best years were when they were with Delerium. But I do like Deadwing and In Absentia grows on you after you listen to it a few times. The records you picked are... | |
| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? Rwwear,Vinyl always sounds the best on a good 'table. | |
| Biggest Baddest Audio Cables The Transparent MM Opus speaker cable. What can you say about a pair of cables that cost $32,000. | |
| Help choosing Power Conditioner PS Audio P-300, nuff said. For source componants only. Use a PS Audio High Current Ultimate Outlet for power amps. | |
| Do speakers sound better on wood floor or concrete A lot of it has to do with the structre of the floor. Is is a wobbly suspended wooden floor with a basement like I have? I had to cut away the carpeting, screw down 3/4" plywood and then install floorjacks right under the speakers from the basemen... | |
| VPI Record Clamps No, but IMHO the Scout has a questionable arm and no suspension. And I don't by you can impliment antiskating by twisting the tonearm wire. At best you'd need a rock solid platform, probably a wall stand. Mike at VPI has assured me the arm is stab... | |
| Passively bi-amping I do have some respect that these a under powered amps (Pass Aleph 5's) for the Nuatalus 802. I have a notch in my Aleph P. When turned all the way to it is plenty loud for this rock and roll animal. Bass is tight, no sign of distortion. However i... | |
| Suggestions for Feet Jay_wYou might want to consider gettting some Black Diamond Racing carbon fiber pucks to go under your cones. Great isolation especially from micro-vibations. | |

| Graham 2.2 damping fluid amount? SirSpeedy,Did you raise of lower lower your VTF as you added fluid? I only have a Shure Stylus force gauge and can't do any fine adjustments. What about antiskating? | |
| VPI Record Clamps I have a HW19 with the TNT platter. VPI has discontinued the '19 opting for their new tables with which you have to use their arms. I don't like their arms and wouldn't have one. I have a Graham 2.2. And I think the VPI Scout is a piece of shit. A... | |
| Passively bi-amping I hear active bi-amping is tricky and my personaly opinion is intergating subwoofers is almost impossible to get right.Plus my room is bass heavy. Could use a pair of 16" Tubetraps. I have a small room for such a large speaker and am able to achei... | |
| Graham 2.2 damping fluid amount? I don't know if I have the patience to keep fiddling with this arm. Azimuth, overhang, VTA, VTF, antiskating now damping fluid. All I know is I have it pretty well dialed in so I think I'll spend my time listening to records. | |
| Graham 2.2 tonearm cables I would just spend the extra bucks and get the Graham IC-70. Keep it simple. |
