| Nokie Edwards I took a cruise to Mexico in the early 2000's, with The Ventures and Los Straitjackets playing in the lounge every night. All the original guys except for drummer Mel Taylor, who is R.I.P. In his place on the drum throne was his son! | |
| acoustical stuffing / sound dampening subwoofer cabinet REL BRITANNIA B1 subwoofer Yup, Rythmik woofers are very good. The 12" is offered in two versions---with an aluminum cone, or a paper one, your choice. For really high performance, the Rythmik woofers can be used with the company's dedicated servo-feedback circuit plate amp... | |
| TT mats handyman has received recommendations for just about every mat available. Time for him to try one or more of his choice, the only way he'll find one that gives him the sound he's looking for. As for the why, some people like the way their bare al... | |
| What is the preferred cartrige mm or mc and why There is a third choice---the MI, Moving Iron. Grado and London (Decca) both have devoted users. They have their own unique sound, different from MM and MC. And high output, so no extra gain stage or step-up transformer necessary. | |
| speakers with balls Maggies have great mid and upper bass (they reproduce the upright bass really well), so as johnto suggested add a couple of REAL good subs, and you can rock to your heart’s content. Maggies will play pretty loud, but you had better have a pretty b... | |
| Music reference/ audio research / vpi @fanotunes, I too had the ARC LS-16/RM-200 combination (though my RM-200 is a Mk.2), and replaced the ARC with an EAR 868L. Muchas betta. The EAR is a real tube pre-amp ;-). | |
| Nokie Edwards My first favorite guitarist. | |
| subwoofer question......what size sub ? m-db and willemj, a sub and the room it is in are a system, they can not be separated. The listening room itself is a speaker enclosure, in a way, and the subwoofer "swarm" is a way to deal with room modes acoustically.Low frequencies being omni-d... | |
| New Vinyl Bill, your reasoning makes perfect sense; that hadn't occurred to me! Planet Waves came out on Asylum Records, and is Dylan's lone non-Columbia release. I haven't gotten the MFSL LP yet, but at Amoeba Records in Hollywood found the Japanese Sony S... | |
| subwoofer question......what size sub ? @willemj, Kenny is employing the GR Research/Rythmik OB/Dipole Sub, a very unique, untraditional bass reproducer, in a manner unlike a "normal" monopole sub. I suggested the Dual Core so that he could continue employing the subs as separate left a... | |
| subwoofer question......what size sub ? Kenny, which version of the Rythmik A370 plate amp did you get for your GR Research OB/Dipole Subs? Whether the regular with RCA's only, or the XLR option model, the DSPeaker Anti-mode can be inserted between your pre-amp and the sub plate amps. D... | |
| New Vinyl Not that I'm excited at the prospect of spending a hundred bucks on a single LP, but if Mobile Fidelity is going to all that trouble I wish they would do it with an album that contains music I like! I've long wondered what the H*ll their criteria ... | |
| Klipsch FII's with mods vs. FIII's @ozzy62, did you build out your GR Research Super V’s yourself (with one of the H-frame flat packs that were available), or buy them from someone else who had done it? I didn’t go for the Super V (I’m a diehard planar man), but did for the OB/Dipo... | |
| Takes one to know one Thanks t, I'll look for it. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @slaw, thanks for the report on the new version. And thanks to you, reubent and all other Lucinda fans for getting me back into her. I loved her from the first time I heard her s/t Rough Trade album in 1988 (damn, 30 years ago!), through Sweet Old... |
