| Over Voltage? not overvoltage at allYour mains voltage is sagging when a high start current (motor) energizes. Could be a degraded connection on the incoming line or it's just too small mains conductor somewhere along the line.A line conditioner wouldn't take c... | |
| Tired of Problems with Tube Equipment Stew I couldn't agree with you more...I started out with tubes, migrated to solid state, tried to go back to tubes, but couldn't stand them. And I really tried to give it a fair shake too.Class A or hybrid A/B mosfets are my favorites. Tube PA's: ... | |

| Amazing... Bo you would most likely be better served by initially going with an entry or mid level integrated setup whereby everything fits together for you. After you become familiar & more comfortable, then you could either move up, or upgrade what you... | |

| Install IEC male socket or not?? Yes there is an IEC chassis punch available from Greenlee; I don't know where but I saw one in a catalog somewhere...Actually there is a simple method to modify for testing upgrade cords without butchering the back panel, and at nominal cost. If y... | |
| Vinyl sounds a bit thin and slightly strident. Actually there is a simple method to modify for testing upgrade cords without butchering the back panel, and at nominal cost. If you like the results then that can be done later... If not then you can easily go back to stock. I have previously pos... | |
| VPI Scoutmaster static Walt if your room humidity is adequate, then I believe that Scifi's solution will work for you; it is an easy fix. I had the same problem also. I tried the Zerostat too. The Zerostat neutralizes static initially, but it builds up again while playi... | |
| Can good speakers take edge off digital? Interconnects & AC cords. Line conditioning. Shelving & footers. Fix the CD source: tweak or upgrade it. The rig sounds good otherwise, so don't mess with it. | |
| Can you point me to CDs with awesome stage? Stevie Nicks Enchanted boxed set is amazing in that regard | |
| whats the best amp for klipsch lascala 2? Mosfet amps have worked best for me with classic Klipsh. Luxman M4000A was the best but imposible to find anymore.CJ also offers mosfets; I tried one long ago but was unaware I had some other problems with setup so I didn't keep it. Might be worth... | |
| New2Analog - Table Setup Help? does the arm feature a vertical tracking angle adjustment? If VTA is incorrct (the back of the arm set too low) then the lows may be accentuated sacrificing HF performance. Start with the arm set parallel to the record, then try raising the back o... | |
| Warmed cleaning fluids I think what Oildude is suggesting is that once the (unheated, or at most body temperature) enzymes have finished their work of breaking down the surface dirt, then the steam heating shouldn't matter anyway; that seems reasonable enough. Just don'... | |
| Vinyl sounds a bit thin and slightly strident. The variety & multitude of suggested corrections & mods seems fairly overwhelming; who knows it could be any, or a combination, of the above.One area I haven't seen addressed nor do you mention, is what AC cables you're using. Since the CD... | |
| Warmed cleaning fluids hi ToddExcessive warming might indeed damage an enzyme-based record wash but I wouldn't know what the maximum safe temperature could be. As Ghosthouse says, body temperature might be alright? It would probably be best to call the manufacturer for ... |
