| Open Letter To REL, SVS, Hsu, etc., et al Vandersteen has its "Vandertones" files for free download on its web site. Not sure if this will help with non-Vandersteen subs though, since the crossover design on Vandy subs is unique. | |
| Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? Meanwhile, back at the topic. . In my home, Vandersteen 1Cs, even though I tried many upstream upgrades.Elsewhere, anything from KEF, most of the Paradigms I have heard, and all the PSB models I gave heard. | |
| Why so many angry audiophiles? Why are there so many angry audiophiles? Why don't you just SHUT UP! 😉 | |
| What kind of listening chair I am looking at task chairs with retractable foot rests. Several on Amazon. | |
| Newly patented, infinitely adjustable system tuning Good luck! I have had little success getting a patent on my amazing invention that lets you center the sound stage, wait for it, WITHOUT MOVING YOUR CHAIR!!!! I call my invention a "Balance Control", as it allows the listener to adjust the relat... | |

| Onzo Zero Dust... Deflated? @vinylshadow... That's what I do, with the tonearm locked I raise the ZeroDust up to the stylus. I do this with the system powered up do I can hear when the stylus contacts the ZeroDust. I will carefully inspect the Moongel prior to using it on ... | |
| Onzo Zero Dust... Deflated? @tablejockey... I do use magic eraser on my Ortofon OM40. But when I tried it with my Denon DL160, it didn't really grab much. I think magic eraser works better on some styli profiles than others. That's why I got the Onzo in the first place. | |
| McIntosh fuse changeout to make better sound I got a good deal on an upgraded fuse for my C220 preamp. No difference I could hear, but it was worth the money for me to find out. No regrets. | |
| Opening Record Store Get a non-compete clause! | |
| Floor standing or Large bookshelf recommendations - 2.0 channel setup I recommend an in home audition of Ohm Walsh 2000s ($2800/pr). They are appropriate for your room size, and I think they will give you what you are looking for. 120 day return option. I have been enjoying mine for about 11 years now. No desire to ... | |
| Questions about recording vimyl to computer? @tketcham ... I tried it once, but my only option for 192/24 playback is via the USB input of my Oppo BDP-93. It worked, and sound came out. 😉 My DAC, a highly modified Beresford, tops out at 96/24. I make my needle drops at that resolution, in... | |
| Questions about recording vimyl to computer? @tketcham AFAIK, that's a misprint. 24/192 is the max resolution for Sugarcube models that record. | |
| Questions about recording vimyl to computer? @o_holter I won't live enough to re-digitize my vinyl! I can't argue with you, higher res is always better, but I am thrilled with my 96/24 needle drops. The Sugarcube tops out at 192/24, but my older DAC maxes out at 96/24 (I know, I deserve a ... | |
| Questions about recording vimyl to computer? Or, for something completely different, skip the computer, and look at a Sugarcube from Sweetvinyl. I have been a beta tester of the SC-2, now an SC-2+, and I am making pristine needle drops in hi-res for my server and portable file player. Easy-... |
