| Turntable oil bearing I use Singer sewing machine oil in my roxan zerxes and never had a problem....anyone else doing similar? Remember, I'm not advising anyone else to do this, simply saying it's okay in the roxan....cheers, Bluenose | |
| I could not believe my ears Good for you. It is great when this happens. It feeds the fire. I remember reading a review in UHF magazine and they were using Doug Maleod. They were talking about hearing certain things in the mix that they hadn't heard before so I played the cd... | |
| Siltech G5 against the rest of the world. Tekunda. I can appreciate what you're saying and feeling about these cables. A friend of mine brought over 2 siltect IC's Gen 3, a year ago and put them first, on the cd. This was astonishing....then the other went between amp and pre....suddenly ... | |
| A question concerning ethics Sean, I agree with you completely on this one. I didn't chim in earlier because I don't have any suggestions at the moment. But I might add that I enjoy manufacturers joining in for the pure love of the gear. I can learn here and maybe become a be... | |
| The passing of a Canadian Icon Barrington street, Halifax will not be the same with the 3 floors of sam's gone. I can never thank the staff there enough for all the awesome music they were responsible for getting me into. Mary Black, Nanci Griffith, Kate Cambell, Lyle Lovett, G... | |
| Bi-wire-top post, bottom post, why a difference? Thanks everyone for your input. Plato, I seem to have found the same effect as you using the top speaker posts and maplesahde jumpers to the bottom posts. regards, Bluenose | |
| Cable shoot-out: Second summary Thanks Sean for your response. I'll keep this in mind. This cable might run in a bi-wire set-up with the satori....regards, lloyd | |
| Cable shoot-out: Second summary Thanks for the posting. This is a daunting task. I really hate checking out cables....makes me ready for the funny farm......now where's me medication? Will look forward to the final review....I'll make do with the satori. Sean, if you happen upon... | |
| Why No respect for Denon DL160 cartridge I own a denon304 and like it very much.....another bargain as I got two of them for 300cdn each...that's like 150 Canadian tire money, eh? Enjoy, the denon's are fun....Bluenose. | |
| Bryston or Classe audio ? what do you think of both? The Brystons are good, tough and reliable but in back to back comparisons in the same system a friend who sells audio and myself both preferred the simaudio 4070SE and the moon W-3 were also much more musically compelling on vocals.....I haven't h... | |
| Moral Dilemma Lens? Throw him an anchor......this made my morning....regards, Bluenose | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? Hi, Haoleb. Tweaks are tricky. They all do something to the sound in your room. Listen to the effect after doing each one and decide which way it sounds best "to you". One of the cheapest tweaks I know is lifting all cables, cords, wires and power... | |
| Is gear cheaper in Canada? Hey, Xmore. It's like Canadina dollars, eh? But what about the border? Do you have to pay anything at the border? I know stuff I've bought in the states are taxed 15% after the conversion rate so that $100US is no longer 'a bargain". On the bright... | |
| Should I buy the Sim Audio Attraction 7? Hi, Henry14. Check out the excellent review in Ultra High Fidelity magazine no.62 just out. You can read part of the review for free at www.uhfmag.com. I find their reviews very fair and useful. They do their own thing and will respond to e-mail w... | |
| Watermarking red-book cd's Thanks Abstract7 for your reply. What also worries me is that they may not mention this protection on the cd. As a potential consumer I feel I have a right to know what I'm buying...if it can't be heard then they should not be afraid to list it on... |
