PHK record cleaning machine looks cool. I use an expensive (2000+) record cleaner. I wouldnt put it past this little sucker to clean records almost OR just as good. You would have to give it a try. Cheers | |
Traditional Brands vs. "Audiophile" Brands Go with the "blue" lights. The red ones work on a frequency which attract flies. The fly's wings flap at a frequency which counteracts super tweeter frequencies. What you want to do in that case is flip the fly upside-down...and change the phase. ... | |
Nordost Vahalla or Mit Oracle Actually, the Supra sword super-duper cool technology is not new at all. Opposing signal transmission has been around for quite along while for inductance reduction/elimination. LAN (RJ-45) cables utilize this phenomenon. Those DIY LAN cable speak... | |
subwoofer speaker cables under the house FYI, IMHO you should have both lengths equal. Especially at those distances. Shorter lengths would not matter so much. | |

The back of the rack/stand/thing has a purposefully cluster#$@% arrangement of both interconnects and power cables. Every interconnect is zip tied to a power c... | |
Alternate speaker stand damping material... Great, I misspelled "bass" again. Shakeydeal is going to go on another tirade on this one. ... | |
Alternate speaker stand damping material... If you want a permanent solution to mass loading, I suggest lead encased in epoxy resin. Let me explain. Depending on what morphology you find the lead readily available in your area will dictate how you should apply it to your situation. IMHO, ge... | |
How to keep ic's and power cords from touching Personally, my experiences with elevating cables have been two-fold: If you are not careful in elevating the cables correctly, there is a chance of increasing the potential anomalies that could arise from introducing interference. What I mean by t... | |
Audible illusions Modulus 3A or Klyne 6L I have owned the AI M3 and now the L2. Amazing pre's. Bests my Rowland Concerto in quite a number of ways. As far a quality, never had any problems. | |
Mint LP Solution Thanks for the info Circleman. I have, for quite a long while, been mixing my own solution. I purchased a Gallon of LAST cleaning fluid, and have been diluting it with the highest grade alcohol solution (laboratory grade). This, along with my self... | |
HELP I need information about interconnects Graemeoh...Do not divulge your secrets about your pre. ...they all just want to suck the secrets from your setup! But in all honesty, wtf are you talking about. LOL. |
