| TT Hum @tomic601 Yes, leg, thanks Jim, pardon my layman’s terms! But now that I think of it, not sure it has to do with what leg. A month ago my front end and amps were on 2 separate lines on the same leg at the panel, but now since moving my front end a... | |
| Interconnects under floor? Sorted. Works perfect. Used these both ends, ran the XLRs under the house along floor joists using this very manageable conduit zip tied every couple feet for extra closure. Total cost about $20, no new cables. | |
| TT Hum Problem found. A dimmer on the other side of the house. It’s not on the same line as the whole system is on its own dedicated. I guess the dimmer causes a ground loop since they’re on the same bar at the box? When on: buzz. When off: dead quiet. A... | |

| Looking for a new phono preamp Way too late to comment here, but seeing the early suggestion for the RCM... and have to add... the Sensor II is wonderful. I actually preferred it to the Herron. The only MC I used was Zu DL103 but it felt like cleaning dust out of the crevices o... | |
| Preamp for Herron VTPH-2A Users have their mantras suggest their ideas (many invaluable) even if they’re not for you. I always appreciate input from all sides, even if I’m invested in the opposite direction. If not, then best to ignore the comments you find irrelevant, rat... | |
| Is it possible to bring your kids into this hobby? @erik_squires @unsound Building is the way to go! I’m building one of the Pass ACA’s with my 11 year old now and it’s a blast. He’ll have his first piece of kit and be proud of it! | |

| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! @oregonpapa No, I live in LA now but my mum is still there and I’m back visiting often. I grew up shopping at Record Outlet in the 80s.Are you familiar with the area? | |
| Townshend Audio Podiums: The Full Review @millercarbon I just ordered 4 pods on your recommendation! I’m almost finished with my 2nd plinth and have been on the fence between these pods and Stillpoints. I have had to move my room around and discovered new footfalls, so hoping these help.... | |
| Phono Stage, How much do I need to spend, New or used. Don’t listen to anyone that says vinyl/phono won’t fill a room, that’s utter nonsense!+1 for the Herron. I had one for a little while, loved it! It if you want something | |
| Brand new Technics SL-1210GR platter wobble ... disappointed! That dude at Cruchfield is full of it. Return it. I’ve had 5 or 6 1200s, never had this problem. Even after dragging them to gigs repeatedly for 20+ years. Get your money back. | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! I grew up in Thousand Oaks. Do you mean to tell me the goldmine of digging was under my nose? 10,000 or so records later? That’s much easier than digging through rat poop and mold in old basements around the globe. | |
