| Do you think you need a subwoofer? Raul, I'm assuming you mean "plates" which are round weights that are used in conjunction with barbells for conditioning by body builders and folks into the fitness thing. | |
| Do you think you need a subwoofer? Raul>> Something that works very well with my Velodyne subs: I mass loaded ( top panel ) with around 25kg.<<What do you use? Is it the same size, smaller, or larger as the top panel? Details please.Thank you | |
| Hadcock on VPI Aries? >>The Hadcock needs a high compliance cartridge to do its magic. Most MC's are low or medium compliance.<<That is categorically untrue and a popular misconception regarding Hadcock tonearms. The effective tonearm masses of the 242 and ... | |
| VPI Scoutmaster or Nottingham Space Deck...? Readster That's a very nice response and I thank you. But the torture track I alluded to on the Hi Fi Record is not subjective audio as you suggest. Try that JMW-9 or 10 or 10.5 or 12.5 in that last track and get back to me after it jumps out. Har... | |
| PMC speakers vs B&W... has anyone compared? I know what music sounds like and B&W is not musical. However, it's a great company to deal with. I know someone who cooked a driver from a pair of old B&W speakers. He had no difficulty obtaining a new one; not an aftermarket unit, an ori... | |
| PMC speakers vs B&W... has anyone compared? henryk@aol.com Agreed and most models require gobs of power. Generally speaking those amps, Krell, Bryston, AR, etc. have sonic signatures similiar to the B&W speakers making for a painful listening experience. All of course IMHO. | |
| Best digital cable to audition? Anybody have experience with the Harmonix HS-102, RCA or XLR? | |

| Need some advise on DAC's please.... Reimyo DAP-777 could be the best DAC under 15K and a "bargain" at 5.5K. | |
| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables The design itself is infinitely more important than the composition in 99% of signal and/or power cables IMO. | |
| VPI Scout Placement Bob:>>You can even go downstairs & install floor jacks underneath the ttable floor area.<<Agreed. This is also an excellent recommendation. | |
| Cartridge Man MM3 vs. ZYX R100 Fuji FS? The Music Maker 3, like all cartridges, performs best when matched with the correct tonearm. All things being equal, it works better with unipivots as opposed to fixed bearing tonearms. Lack of bass weight should not be an issue if a suitable tone... | |
| Trans Temp W, Magic Diamond cartridges - comments The battery in the Cartridge Man gauge will last indefinitely if charged on a regular basis. A 6-8 hour charge once a month is more than enough if the gauge is not used.The battery is not particulary expensive at $4.50.I think your assertion that ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Slowhand >>Thanks, I would love to know what you think of it. What finish did you get?<<Sheoak/chrome with a tweaked phono section and some other goodies. | |
| Hadcock arms >>You need to use fluid damping for the Deccas and MCs<<Perhaps for the older models but not the latest versions. |
