| Best Speaker for classical music @atmasphere,fair enough, they did though use elctric guitars and keyboards in the studio as far as I can tell. My point is actually about frequency band overlaps and phase shifts as a result of crossovers and electronic enhancements in the transmi... | |
| How to isolate turntable from footstep shake or vibration @millercarbon,not sure I agree with you on arm boards: they should have maximum dimensional and warp stability relative to the platter and ideally be free of resonance: Brass, acrylic blocks or panzerwood are way preferable to mdf or papp. Listen ... | |
| Townshend Maximum Supertweeters @mapman ,wrong, wrong and wrong, Supertweeters add overtones to frequencies in the audible spectrum. One of the more interesting results is that muddled bass becomes clearer. They are not about ‘air’ or not only, the more fundamental effect is the... | |
| Best Speaker for classical music Ralph,while your argument is fundamentally sound, only Jazz and Classical are typically performed without electronic support. Rock, Pop, Reggae, and even ELP always went through large speaker arrays with multiple crossovers and other electronic ai... | |
| BNC Cable is RG6 the best? I run my clock on Sommercable bnc (sommercable .com) using t-splits and 2 cables under the Schroeder method with very good results. Get dedicated 75 ohms cables from someone who knows how to control impedance and capacitance | |
| Contact -enhancer, fuses - NOS 1260 High fidelity audio cables @theaudiotweak Souds like kissing advice with a contact enhancer😱 | |
| Clock BNC cables 50 vs 75 ohm Both should work on short runs. On longer runs you should stick to the nominal impedance of your device | |
| Contact -enhancer, fuses - NOS 1260 High fidelity audio cables Kool-Aid, anyone? | |
| How to isolate turntable from footstep shake or vibration Townshend Seismic sink or wall-mounted (assuming solid rather than plasterboard walls) | |
| Gimbal vs unipivot tonearms case in point: I run a Dynavector DV 507MK2 with a Zyx Universe and a Mørch UP4 with a Scheu MC Analogue: on rock music, the Mørch is clearly preferred whereas the Dynavector on Classic and Jazz is miles ahead | |
| Cheap grounding solution @pauly actually no, as I said, cnnect all three leads (i.e. ground, live and neutral to the ground post on both ends, so your consideration doesn‘t come into it. The point is to provide a high capacitance link to the ground, shielding comes from t... | |
| Gimbal vs unipivot tonearms Is it just me who is marvelling at Mijostyn‘s certainties in life?; he is again spouting generalities from insufficient data. In particular I‘d like to challenge him with a good Mørch or Hadcock design with a suitable cartride (e.g. Musicmaker, t... | |
| Looking for preamp which is good at BOTH single-ended AND balanced output @atmasphere ,did you mean to really argue that balanced cables show no difference in sonic signature? That I believe would be a claim difficult to prove…. | |
| SET vs OTL @atmasphere Ralph, are you able to address my comparison between Graaf GM20 and Wavac EC300b in the same way? I am not yet convinced that the issues raised by @pani aren‘t valid in the same way.For what it‘s worth I have yet to hear a balanced con... | |
| Townshend Maximum Supertweeters The germaine issue here is that old geezers can‘t hear above 12 kHz if they are lucky to even get that far. Yet they can tell when a supertweeter with a 15kHz cutoff is present and the effects are wholly beneficial. Go figure what to measure for s... |
