| List your System Ingredients: Listed most to least expensive, by list price or price paid @millercarbon---Actually, it was the brown M & M’s. ;-) | |
| Mapleshade or Butcher Block Acoustics 19mm 13-ply Baltic Birch ply is stiffer and less resonant than a plank of solid or laminated Maple. Some drum companies offer shells fabricated from Birch (most notably the German-made Sonor, the Rolls Royce of drum companies), for a sound somewha... | |
| List your System Ingredients: Listed most to least expensive, by list price or price paid I figured out how my CD/SACD player works, but I can’t get it to play my LP’s. Guess I’ll just throw them out. The music contained in the groove of a fair number of them is unavailable on CD, but since CD’s make LP’s obsolete I’ll just have to go ... | |
| The Absolute Sound "review" of USB cable reads suspiciously like a press releaste Exactly Erik. ALL their "reviews" sound like press releases, and have for many years. I met and spoke with Robert Harley when he was at Stereophile, and he seemed legit. But he, like William Barr, appears to have been drawn to the dark side and et... | |

| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? So have Brian Ding send you one Rythmik, and see if it's boomy. But here's something you need to be told: if you hear boomy sound from a sub in your room, the boom is more likely to be a result of the interaction of the room and the bass frequenci... | |
| Turntable isolation for bedroom floor If you have the bread, an isolation table from Minus-K, Herzan, Newport, etc. They isolate down to as low as 0.5 Hz. For a lot less $, a set of Townshend Audio Seismic Pods or Geoff Kait's springs will isolate down to 3 Hz. | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? I'm trying to help you Larry, but you're not making it easy ;-) .If Rythmik didn’t sell direct-to-consumer, the price of their subs would be at least twice what they are now. It is not the only hi-fi company doing that, ya know. So does HSU, and m... | |
| anbody ever hear of an outfit called dynagroove records? Dynagroove was not a recording process RCA Records used, but rather an LP pressing technology, and a real, real bad one. Some RCA titles were pressed in a few different versions of RCA L:P's: Shaded Dog, Black Label, Red Label, and finally in the ... | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? Wait, what? Larry, you consider the Rythmik a "conventional" subwoofer and the REL not? You really don’t understand, do you?!How many times are you going to come on here and ask everyone whether you should get a Rythmik or a REL? If you’re having ... | |
| Useful Idiots Some music actually brings me closer to the source of all reality, The Creator. Hope that don't sound too high-falutin' ;-) . | |
| What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak? Listening to the same J.S. Bach or Mozart piece twice in a row increases my pleasure in hearing it, as I better understand it. And it’s free! | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? Call Rythmik and talk to designer/owner Brian Ding. If you want to connect the subs to the speaker output terminals (binding posts) on the receiver, when you order the subs ask for the PEQ or PEQ3 plate amp. Both include binding posts for high-lev... | |
| What is the forum code word for "listen to this stoned". I'd like to use it on these two: Ha, excellent one schubert! I can't be around stoners, and not just because of all the coughing (and coughing, and coughing, and coughing.....). All they do is act like silly teenagers; it's pathetic and even worse, boring. | |
| Tone, Tone, Tone ! @prof, your third paragraph perfectly expresses my own feelings on the subject. There is of course no such thing as a perfectly uncolored (or transparent, or anything else) loudspeaker, but some allow me to "suspend my disbelief" enough to enjoy t... |
