| LEDE does anyone subscribe to this? Danny,I also think that LEDE doesn't apply as well to home stereo as it does for studio use. As you mentioned in your post, LEDE was really developed for studio use where the listening is (very) near-field. I use ASC tube traps & from what I h... | |
| Just wondering It's a scam for sure!I was listening to NPR last week & there was a report exactly like this wherein the fellow called in from Nigeria & said that he had mistakenly sent several thousand $ for an item & if the seller would be kind enou... | |
| Cartridge cleaning Doug,I was thinking about the colour of the stylus after posting a reply to you.The stylus is a diamond tip. We all know that the more colourless & clear it is, the more the price of it increases exponentially. Thus, it is highly unlikely that... | |
| Sandbox for vibration ........... Use one myself with excellent results. Used it on my previous MMF5 as well. I have pictures posted in my Virtual System, if you care to look. Thanks! | |
| Cartridge cleaning Hey Doug,That's right! The light passing thru my stylus is also amber coloured rather than white. The point I was trying to make is that when the stylus is clean, then it will appear translucent (with whatever colour it is supposed to be as each m... | |
| Cartridge cleaning Yes, this is a topic that has been debated a lot on A'gon! I'm sure the other experts will chime in shortly.Meanwhile I have the Discwasher fluid & brush. I use the fluid very, very, very sparingly (for the fear of having the fluid run up the ... | |
| Chris Botti - Night Sessions Finally got a hold of this CD. Overall, nice music with a decent variety of tunes. The female singer needs to go! Relaxing. Innovative but not very deep material, sometimes even feels a bit "sissy"!I like it all-the-same. I wouldn't say that it mo... | |
| 100w class A or 200 w class AB ???? OK guys, here is an answer from an EE perspective:Like Maranketz wrote: all watts are created equal 'cuz it is a measure of power. Nothing hokey here. Just plain simple math: power = current squared * resistance. Class A power amps have the least ... | |
| Review: Green Mountain Audio Europa Monitor Dennisj,Nice, objective review of the GMA Europas. Myself have the GMA C1.5i floor standers. They exhibit the same "house sound", if you will. I definitely agree w/ you that Roy has gotten the design right such that the instrument timbres are the ... | |
| Jazz recommendations for a beginner? Jorge,Without meaning to offend you & without meaning to be the "Jazz Police" - "Kind of Blue" is an awesome album! My friend lent me the CD, which is a Sony SBM i.e. 20-bits, etc, etc & it promised to be a good recording. I heard it a few... | |
| How do you clean the laser in a CD player? Go to Radio Shack & buy their CD lens cleaning disc. It has carbon fibre brushes on the underside that cleans the laser lens. As an addition, RS has put a bunch of test tracks on that CD that you can use to setup your system.Lens cleaner CD is... | |
| Anyone Heard The GMA C-3's? Dawgbyte,Just FYI: As far as I know, only the C1.5i were sent to CES this year. Father & Son Audio took some pictures of various setups & you can see the C1.5i connected w/ Audio Magic's latest & greatest flat speaker cables. I believe... | |
| Solid state design options... Nrenter,Understand why you posed the question in the 1st place. I agree that it's very hard to discern an amp's sound quality by just looking at the specs & knowing what sort of technology was used to design it. I also agree that the best is t... | |
| Analog Selection Dilemma: Aries V. Scout Nighteyes0,Like "Bruckner9", I ask "only 2 tables you are considering?"IMHO, get rid of VPI altogether! They are very average TTs! I'm going to duck now as the lynch-mob comes by!!If you want a much better TT go w/ the Nottingham Spacedeck with Sp... | |
| Review: Richard Gray 400s AC filter I too have a 400S unit in my system. It seems to have gotten mixed reviews in the press & I can see here too that the users have mixed feelings!I use the 400S ONLY on my front-end components i.e. CDP & TT motor. I never even considered (ev... |
