| Flatscreen between speakers A 100% wooven wool rug is the best you can do. I got one exactly the side of my screen handmade from a indigenous lady on a beach in Belize. I stapled the top of it on a 1/2" × 1" wooden stick and it self holds perfectly over the screen with the s... | |
| Article: "Do Blind Listening Tests Work? My Sessions with the Colorado Audio Society" I know, I realized it as soon as I posted it. The IPA and the blind word side tracked me. | |
| Article: "Do Blind Listening Tests Work? My Sessions with the Colorado Audio Society" Blind testing wouldn't work for me as I don't like listening to music with my eyes closed, anymore. Used to in my younger hazy days.. I have to have a visual placement of instruments to really enjoy it. Like I would never go to a concert and list... | |
| Sigur Ros - Best Recordings? Agaetis byrjun is considered one of their best. I have a double album UK vinyl version. It can be beautiful at times but nothing special soundwise for audiophile purposes. | |

| "Good" Music @curiousjim It's not for everybody, but in each genre every band listed has something special to offer imo. Glad I could help. | |

| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? I don't rely in one specific site to make equipment decisions. It takes me hours if not days of researching the internet to get enough various opinions before I can pull the trigger. I don't usually rely on anyone specific, any specific review or ... | |
| DAC 'Scam' Vid This is beyond my comprehension because I am a fool, I have a fuse upgrade collection. | |
| Technics SL-1300G Turntable issues I just checked your system and you seem totally committed to vinyl. It is very easy to check a platter for proper level. Just use an eye bubble type level and move it around the platter and check that the bubble stays dead center in the eye. Then ... | |
| Technics SL-1300G Turntable issues Luckily the VPI Classic can handle heavy center weight and outer ring. I use them for every record I play so they are pretty flat. If you truly want hifi results, this vinyl thing can be tedious. Tone arms / cartridges alignments and specially the... | |
| Technics SL-1300G Turntable issues On a quality TT like my VPI Classic the level of the base is identical to the one of the platter. But on lesser quality TTs like the Pioneer DX1000, or Pro-ject debut, I had to make legs adjustments to get the platter leveled. | |
| Technics SL-1300G Turntable issues @faustuss Sorry you don't understand the fact that the platter is the part that really needs to be leveled. Of course you start with the base but if the platter is not leveled after leveling the base, you need to adjust the feet until you get th... | |
| DDC or Better Streamer? @audiostick My point was it is best to match equipment in a similar price range because a 10k amp with 3k sources is not gonna be able to perform as a 10k amp, rather it will put out 3k signals. Of course I'm generalizing. By example all my comp... | |
| Anyone upgrade from Jays CDT2MK3 to CDT3MK3? The CDT2 and CDT3 both have Philips mechanism, but different models. Could that be the issue? |
