| Orientation... Gable roof.... best set up for acoustics on long or short wall? OK Nice. The picture helps.. First, the ridge height on a 24 ft run with a 12/12 pitch will be somewhere around 12ft, not 15. But that is of little consequence for the room. However the 3 ft knee wall will come in appx 3 ft on each side so that cu... | |
| Orientation... Gable roof.... best set up for acoustics on long or short wall? we are building a house with a large gabled room above the garage to be our music room. The total dimension is 39' long 24' wide and 15' high at the ridge line of the gable. This will leave a listening/music room area of 29'x24' I am a retired... | |
| Buy Back Old or Move On? @high-amp Tubes have always intrigue me but being a Mr. fix-it maintenance, kinda guy, when it comes to music, I just want to sit and listen, not tinker & tube roll. I have no real ability to fix electronics either. But I have had tube... | |
| I Don't Want to be an Audiophile, What am I... @ghdprentice Also that my audio system has always been of far greater value than my car… one of the tests to see if you have the disease. Many years back there was a thread about the cars that we (a'philes) drive. You fit the bill. Me too | |
| More news on the Herron Line Stage Nice. Enjoy. Glad you are back up and running. | |
| Recording with bass to align my subs with my speakers @millercarbon is right about different albums over time. I am a musician, DJ and sound engineer. This is where the sound engineer comes in. Play any of your jazz & R&R records at a normal (for you) listening level. What you want to do is a... | |
| Suggestions for an integrated upgrade please Imo the MacBook is the weakest link in the system, not the amp. | |
| It's Great Having So Many Choices (?) The problem is not too many choices but too many overlapping choices or meaningless choices that just muddy up the water. This has come with the complexity of our technology which we have surrounded ourselves with IMO. The more complex the system ... | |
| Could You Tell a Tube Integrated from a Solid State Receiver If All Else Were Equal? +1 @fiesta75 Not a good match up with a tube stereo vs solid state AV amp. Its like comparing a plane to a helicopter. They both fly. Or a jet vs a prop plane? Ever tried crop dusting in a jet? IOW, it depends on the job. In this case, one is m... | |
| Is this amount of record/tonearm bobbing "normal" Yes. It's just tracking the record which has a slight warp. But it's not that much to worry about. Many albums have this. A record clamp or weight can help. But again its really a normal ocurance | |
| Newbie Needs Assistance @sns I’ve obviously got my head up my butt on this Raven thing. What’d I miss? A circle jerk festival....9 pages so far. They have a picture of MC and one of Raven Dave in the middle. Obviously there is still time to get involved but I doub... | |
| Happy New Year to Me, from OL to Triplanar @atmasphere From what little research I did before the purchase, I believe most people seem to Not use the damping fluid. I got it setup just before Christmas so I haven't done much adjustments other than setup the arm & cart. I understand... | |
| Please recommend speakers <$800 for newbie Geez Guys. Look at his amp. Then look at the Vandy's 86db for a questionable inexpensive amp that is rated 50 wpc? Youi can't just call out speakers because they are good. The Vandy's are as are many others. But the amp won't drive them properly. | |
| Please recommend speakers <$800 for newbie @expresstrain Perhaps I should also consider the Klipsch 600M (sensitivity of 96db) Yes, Klipsch is another high efficiency speaker mfg. While looking up the ones you mentioned, I ran across these. Supposedly the are a discontinued model but ... | |
| Happy New Year to Me, from OL to Triplanar Thanks @millercarbon I had those written down somewhere but who knows where it is now. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention again. FWIW I got this arm used and it was just brought up to present specs last year. So yes, the MSRP on new... |
