| How close to the real thing? All we need is five guys, earplugs, blindfold and a big box, like a Wilson crate, and a hand-truck. Also a Budget rental truck or even a pickup would work fine.We lug the guy around to few different venues over the coarse of a couple nights. We un... | |
| Christmas Tree Echo Control Two trees and a menorah tweak is where it's at this holiday season. Silver menorah if you can swing it, nine-branch, not seven. Wait till you hear the effect of the presents piling up in the corners. Ah the holidays. | |
| Buy tubes from Audio Research or not I had an amp sent to ARC for repair. The work was under warranty but they would not do the work unless they could re-tube it. They made $500 off a $.05 resistor. I get that they don't want problems that bad tubes could cause but that was not cheap... | |
| Speakers on carpet or bare floor? What Stanwal said is helpful. I don't know much about glass walls but it sounds like other frequencies may be more prominent to you now. Try to recreated the room boundaries you havd before, like similar placement from back and side walls etc. Adj... | |

| What Chores do Audiophiles Hate? Removing compost from the composting toilet. Dislike the chore but it's somewhat rewarding to take care of your own s..t. | |
| Music that really stirs your emotions Final Cut by Floyd is sad. | |
| The Wall: Roger Waters 2010 Anyone else visit outside the wall lately? | |
| The Wall: Roger Waters 2010 Dreadhead, my good frind Mike saw the show in NJ on November 3'rd and loved it.Yeah, I agree fully with Roger waters and the political message but don't like to have one liners streamed in text trying to say how I should feel about something. Thos... | |

| Speaker question for RMAF attendees Sounds like Raidho but are you sure they were silver? | |
| Best Pre/Amp or Integrated for Zu Essence ARC is very transparent and can give you that in the room experience with the right cables, etc. I can't say that I would personally go with an ARC/ZU combination because both have a very extended top end. Maybe too much of a good thing IMO??I fou... |
