| Help with TT ideas for my first TT I've owned a MMF 7.1, the Concept, and a Clearaudio Emotion (very similar to the TT-15). The Concept was a really nice table but super sensitive to footfalls. Didn't work with the springy floors in my house. Shouldn't be a problem with cement f... | |
| To venture back into vinyl or not,...that is the question. What's your reason for returning to vinyl? Do you have a record collection that you want to revisit? Nostalgia? Something else? There are a lot of tables that will let you enjoy your vinyl for around $500, but it's true you'll probably need to spe... | |
| I bought another Class D amp and didn't get what I paid for! There was this one time when I sold this gentleman an amp and he called me and said I sold him the wrong amp, mistakenly having given him my ST1000 instead of the ST500 that I had for sale... nice to know there are still honest, ethical people. | |

| Recommendations for next headphone How many heads do you have? | |
| Speakers hung from ceiling on aircraft cable. When I was about 20 I had my speakers suspended with some hi test fishing line. It rawked dude! Probably not something that I’d do now.It might actually sound okay. Worth a try, especially with some relatively small speakers like those. | |
| Turntable I've always put the record right on the acrylic platter when the turntable has one. | |
| Decent tuner with a headphone output and volume control A good FM tuner (and antenna) can provide excellent sound quality, often much better than a streaming version of the same broadcast. I'm not aware of any good tuners with a good headphone amp however. You could look on the fmtunerinfo site or its ... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? No Uber, you're old! | |
