| furutech antistat 3 I 2nd ebm's enthusiastic endorsement. A lot more $ than the Zerostat, but imo worth the difference in price. | |
| Sub Question. One higher quality sub or two lesser quality? (Rythmik vs HSU) If Rythmik still offers a 10% discount on multiples, you should just be able to get a pair of the E15 subs for $2000. The only difference between the E15 and F15 is the size of the enclosure, and therefore a minute difference in output.Whether or ... | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker I thought not Doug, just wanted to be clear! | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker Doug, who is using lamp cord or worse? I don't know about Linkwitz, but Danny Richie has a line of 6 nines copper wire (Electra Cable) he includes in his kits as hook-up wire (for crossovers and drivers), and sells separately as speaker cable. He ... | |
| LittelFuses Series 285 AUDIO/MEDICAL Quality One well-known audiophile fuse non-believer is Ralph Karsten of Atma-Sphere. He makes "pretty good" sounding amps and pre-amps. ;-) | |
| Anyone here prefer songs without lyrics?? The Ventures were my first favorite band; I had a half dozen of their albums before getting any Beach Boys or Beatles.Bill Frisell’s recent Guitar In The Space Age album is very Ventures-like, but rather disappointing (I’m a Frisell fan, but this ... | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker Great @clio09. The Madisound OB frames are real nice, made of Baltic Birch. Does Madisound sell the LX521 OB/Dipole woofer frame alone? I installed my OB/Dipole woofers in the same style frame (Danny refers to it as a "W", others an "M", and Madis... | |
| LittelFuses Series 285 AUDIO/MEDICAL Quality They feature "high-breaking capacity", which Roger Modjeski insisted was essential for use in tube power amps. He installed Littelfuse brand fuses in all his Music Reference amps. | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker @clio09, interesting that both Roger and Bruce Thigpen ended up going with an 8" woofer in a small sealed enclosure to mate with their respective planars, Roger’s ESL’s, Bruce’s magnetic-planars. I deeply regret having been unable to hear Roger’s ... | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker Good to hear @clio09. May I ask what that way is? One way to make bass more uniform throughout the room is by way of the DBA: Distributed Bass Array. But regardless, in rooms having dimensions shorter than the longest wavelength being produced, th... | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker Siegfried Linkwitz certainly appeared to me to be a genius. However, he designed the Orion with a required digital active crossover, and needing 8 channels of amplification. Not a loudspeaker I would want to own.SL had his design priorities, as di... | |
| MM phono preamplifier If you're patient, keep a look out for a used Herron VTPH-1mm. I've never seen one for sale, and got mine from Keith Herron himself. You could ask him if he has a trade-in available. | |
| Springs under turntable Our old mia pal Geoff Kait claims his springs provide isolation superior to that of the Townshend Seismic Pod. If you watch the video Max Townshend made (and posted on YouTube) in which he compares the Pod against the bare spring used within the P... | |
| AnyFM tuner mechanics out there? For future work on your MR71, give Tom Carione at Brooks Berdan Ltd. in Monrovia (just East of Pasadena) a try. His fulltime job is as a maintenance technician at an L.A radio station (or is it a TV station?); he's in the shop on Saturdays. | |
| What is ideal dimension size for a home listening room? I just watched a Dennis Foley Acoustic Fields video, in which he makes his case against the claims made for Green Glue. I can’t speak to that product, but can to another wall damping material: Wall Damp, made by ASC, Acoustic Sciences Corp., the T... |
