| Simple copper speaker terminal jumpers? Lost my originals. I think jumpers are like anything else in audio. A change may be better or worse, meaning more to your taste or less so. On my Harbeths, the Audience AU24 jumpers cleaned up a somewhat congested lower midrange sound so it was "better". But on m... | |
| Buying large audio equipment No. But I made a vow I'm not buying anything anymore that I can't lift. That's it. | |
| Oppo 205 revelations, questions.. I don't know guys. I like mine very much, but I would have to say my favorite part is probably the headphone jack. It sounds really good with the Oppo PM3 headphones, which I was lucky enough to get on Amazon for $399. I like the simplicity of ... | |
| Bozak concert grand speakers I would just list them on Ebay as a cash-and-carry only item and you will find a buyer. There are a lot of people who love those vintage speakers. I sold my father's EV Royal 400 on Ebay in 1 day, whereas they sat here for a month without a bite... | |
| Why should we think of "what microphones heard " as a standard Studios spend thousands of dollar on good microphones to capture the real sound and hundreds of thousands on gear to alter the sound to the producer's taste. Ask anyone who actually worked in recording studios. There are exceptions of course - M... | |
| Little Dot mkIV tube upgrade The Black Sable tubes at Tube Depot made a marked improvement in my Pro-ject Tube Box 2 phono preamp. You might give them a try. | |
| speakers with active bass It makes sense, but I think there is a resistance to it from a sheer marketing standpoint. | |
| Tecnics 1200G platter cleaning Good question. Without knowing more, I would just use a damp microfiber towel, rung out as far as it could go. You don't want to use any chemicals that could stain the finish. I don't know why the platter is getting dirty. Dusty perhaps, but d... | |
| speakers with active bass Because audiophiles generally hate the idea of amplifiers in the speakers that they cannot select themselves. | |
| Replacement Linn LP12 mat I tried the ringmat, cork mat, speed mat, Herbies mat and always went back to the felt. | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need Poor wording on my part. No the cables do not calculate. The company measures all of your components' parameters and the company builds a cable with a network that that takes all of those factors into account. Now your search is over. Sorry fo... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need I believe Transparent Cables does just what you ask - they take all of your equipment parameters and calculate the "perfect" cable specs for you. See? Your search is over. | |
| Speakers for.....every type of music? It's not so much what you listen to, as opposed to what qualities you value as a listener. I can listen to anything on my Tivoli radio with a 3" speaker and enjoy it. But if you require the impact of a rock band at loud levels, it's not going to... | |
| Cartridge alignment tool All these suggestions are good, but you should know one thing about the Mint - It requires you to line up the cantilever between two minuscule parallel lines and this is very painstaking and, IMO, virtually impossible on a cartridge with a small, ... | |
| sonic frontier sfd-2 mark ii DAC, smoke... I though Parts Connexion in Canada can service those things. |
