| Capacitor Then why are you trying to correct an obvious design error rather than looking at a more carefully designed instrument? | |
| Amp / Preamp match? Listen and let us know. | |
| Capacitor Why do you think changing caps will give you the desired results? It's the entire preamp design, not one circuit component, that makes the difference.You'd be better off selling the unit and searching for a different one that will give you the pe... | |
| What will you pay for a new LP? Depending on the performance, the artist and the venue, I will pay for a vinyl transcription. If I agree with the price. | |
| CD Player Recommendations… Onkyo C-7030. Proves very good sound does not have to cost over 1000. | |
| Designers -who's been around the longest ? John Curl has been around and active for a LONG time. He is correct about high quality parts. It’s easier and cheaper for large quantity FET manufacturers to skip a few steps in production (especially baking time) to produce chips that still meet ... | |
| The best room upgrade: $2250 Much less expensive than other treatments, try getting a dozen or two of artificial ficus trees. 5' and 8' as leafy as you can find. I have purchased a lot of artificial ficus from At Home stores. The 5' trees are only $40. The 8' are more exp... | |
| PowerBall Lottery Winner Start with a Golden Ratio room with poured concrete walls a thick-pile carpet, a solid, rigid well-braced ceiling, solid wood doors and only enough windows to meet code for egress. Suggest room dimensions (close to Golden Ratio) could be 10' high... | |

| List a Condition you know of that will produce Better Sound filling the room with artificial ficus trees. They act as diffusers and absorb sound. Properly placed, they can really help a room. and improve sound quality. | |
| Spring-Loaded Screw Turns Drywall Into Sound-Absorbing Panels @optimizerWhen room interact with recorded sound, the recorded sound is distorted. Period. The BEST listening is in a dead room. Your statement that rooms should not be deadened is promoting that distortion. Period. It interferes with imaging... | |
| Spring-Loaded Screw Turns Drywall Into Sound-Absorbing Panels @optimize - A room must ABSOLUTELY BE COMPLETELY DEAD in order to NOT distort the recorded signal. ANY room contribution to the sound is a distortion.Anything other than a DEAD room will distort the sound. Absorbers, diffusers and the like need ... | |
| Spring-Loaded Screw Turns Drywall Into Sound-Absorbing Panels Let's think this through. The drywall is already tightly screwed to the studs or joists. The drywall will vibrate based on the dampening effect of the studs or joists, the thickness of the drywall and the size of the open area of the drywall tha... | |
| LYRA DELOS IS AMAZING!!!! You will probably like the Delos even better with a top notch phono preamp. Start looking for a Herron VTPH-2a. No longer manufactured, but you might get lucky on the used market. I'm currently using a Lyra Skala with the VTPH-2a and find no n... |
