| Running LOMC with MM (47K) loading Thanks @vinylzone. I appreciate the info on the Herron | |
| Running LOMC with MM (47K) loading @I have the 4th version. I have loading plugs but don't use them anymore. I talked to Joe about sending it to him for updates. Very reasonable to get that done. That will probably be the path I take.I remember the shootout with the JLTi and other ... | |
| Custom plinth I don't see how the roundover edge through the veneer, on top of the plinth, doesn't expose the plywood? The top veneer is applied over the edge of the edge veneer. Therefore the top veneer is protruding past the frame plywood by whatever the ... | |
| Berlioz Requiem I'm not sure of the interpretation quality of the performance. But this is from a college library. I have the same though mine has the tulips on the label. DG is usually a good pressing with the Tulips more sought after. I bought about 1500 LP's... | |

| Extension power for ps audio p15 I put my Core Power 1800 in back of my rack with the outlets facing up. This requires it to sit face down. Mfg said it's alright So far so good. | |
| True or False? Ahhh, the Scientismists are at it again. Science has all the answers according to this "religion" Yet when they are backed in a corner they will say "science doesn’t have all the answers. Yet when someone tells of an experience they disagree with,... | |
| True or False? @ mijostyn Tweaks are for idol worshipers.Yep. Tell that to the race car drivers who modify a sports car with a catch can, Cold air intake, or shocks and suspension or Tires. And I haven't even mentioned supercharger, or Turbo or smaller pully... | |
| True or False? @mapman The better they are the less tweaks needed to make them sound good. See how that works? There is a certain amount of truth there. Yes, the better equipment does sound better. That's why we use the word "better" to describe them. But the q... | |
| True or False? is it true or not true in (your experiences) that the better your audio components are, the less they respond to various tweaks? Not true. Just as a race car responds more to tweaks, so does a high resolving system. Part of the problem in tweakin... |
