| Glass??? Not so sure if this is such a good idea. I've seen several glass-shelved racks & always wondered how they can sound any good? I removed the glass doors from my own rack & the sound improved significantly. But if you must... at least use co... | |
| Which would you buy? reputation & sound quailty point directly to the EAD | |
| McCormack preamp upgrade, Is it worth it? Consider the change going from a stock ALD to a Deluxe, then another order of mangitude over that. This is what I'd expect from a Rev. A, but no I haven't heard so I can't say. What I *can* say is that going from a stock TLC-1 to a Deluxe was quit... | |
| How many of us have worked in audio stores? I got sucked into this situation a couple or three times. First round was with Lafayette Electronics in the 70's, not at all high-end but we did sell audio & car stereo. It was part time low paying & didn't last very long. Second round was... | |
| Cigar Smell...How to get out of Maggies?? First thing contact the seller asap & "air" your complaint. I've heard that lemon oil makes a good deodorizer; maybe spray some Lemon Pledge liberally misted throughout the room then close the door for a couple days? | |
| Wanna hear your soundstage walk around ??? First off, Sean really had me worried! Just as I got into work today my desk phone was ringing & it was Sean asking if I had read this post yet? I hadn't yet seen it, but from the tone of his voice I just knew that he had blown something up wi... | |
| Non Audiophiles are funny people some kids broke into our house long ago (I have double cylinder locks now) & were gonna steal a portable handheld cassette player, but they must have left in a hurry because we found the player sitting by the back door all ready to go. They di... | |
| Are you allowed to increase the selling price ? as I understand the Audiogon rules, an auction cannot run simultaneous with a for-sale ad for the same item. Nevertheless I've seen this being done (perhaps inadvertently - I hope?) on several occasions.Of course the seller can price a sale item h... | |
| Is bass-expander really good for stereo system? you may also want to experiment with other interconnects. Try to borrow some demo's from a local dealer if possible. Explain your present sonic signature & your goal of course. | |
| help me with cheap tape deck. What's the sense in using a *cheap* deck for those precious archives? Get yourself something of real quality, it won't cost that much more anyway these days when good used decks are going for such good prices. One machine that I have meeting all y... | |
| What affects sound quality - preamp or amplifier? Warren get the best pre that you can afford. I always put the most $ into the control amp (the pre) which if compromised will limit all of your sources to the capabilities of the marginal pre, and if sending a compromised signal onto the amps you ... | |
| Is bass-expander really good for stereo system? I see no mention of upgrade AC cords on your equipment list. That is the very first thing that I would experiment with. You can tune your rig by trying different AC cords; no two sound exactly the same & many differ considerably in terms of th... | |
| Power Cord for Battery Operation ie, JRDG BS-8 When drawing off battery supply the AC cord shouldn't be an issue (it's out of circuit isn't it?). However as PC says, the DC umbillical cords are definitely in circuit & would affect sonic signature. | |
| Help My Steve notify the seller immediately describing exactly what's going on & our theories behind the intermittent fault. DC on ANY component's audio output line is *bad news*. Think of the audio signal as AC (an alternating voltage actually). Thin... | |
