| Amp "timing" ? dtximages Why do I feel like we’re being duped here ... I’m just getting tired of all the "and the veil was lifted" colour that people are adding to their reviews/opinions that have zero basis. But I’m still open to this timing thing if it has a ... | |
| Amp "timing" ? dtximages ... just wondering if this is more audiofraud minutia or if it's a very clear distinction that can be relatively easily recognized by a critical listener. This is the logical fallacy of the "excluded middle," aka tertium non datur. | |
| Amp "timing" ? I think this inquiry is best directed to the person who made the claim. | |
| looking for advice to mitigate inner groove distortion lewm One could argue about alignment all day but I strongly doubt that misalignment or Stevenson alignment can account for this problem. It's much easier to get phono cartridge alignment wrong than it is to get it right. If LPs exhibit inner gr... | |
| looking for advice to mitigate inner groove distortion adam8179 I used an alignment protractor and my eyeballs ...Not all cartridge alignment contractors are equally precise. Many align the cartridge itself, which isn't ideal. The best alignment gauges, imo, align the cantilever. They're much tric... | |

| I want to be moved and have the music touch my soul! Are you moved by live music and find that it touches your soul? If so, what qualities does it have that your present system lacks?If you aren’t moved by live music, then you’re not likely to be moved by canned music, either. | |
| Is ELP turntable dead? It looks like the machine is still in production. There just isn't a lot of enthusiasm for the technology. | |
| need good minimalist preamp or headphone amp to actively drive woofers in a biamp setup lcherepkai mcleeds--would adding an active crossover, say an NHT X1 or X2, negate the need for an active preamp to increase the gain? I'm not familiar with those xovers, but you could try it. Personally, I'd never want to forsake using an active... | |
| Trained ears. If you know the sound of live, acoustic instruments, it's not that difficult to evaluate audio components ... especially if you have a few recordings that you've made yourself. | |
| New versus old top of the line speakers. My understanding is that the new L-100 has improvements over the original. In any event, according to the government's inflation calculator, $550 in 1971 is the equivalent to about $3,400 today. JBLs are often discounted, so today's price would be... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? travbrowWhat is the correct term of raising or lowering the tonearm from parallel? If you raise a pickup arm, you're increasing VTA. Likewise, if you lower the pickup arm, you're decreasing VTA. But it also clear to just refer to raising or lowe... | |
| need good minimalist preamp or headphone amp to actively drive woofers in a biamp setup lcherepkai why would an active crossover be the right choice in my situation?There are a lot of advantages to active biamplification. Passive crossovers are inefficient, so you’ll likely have less distortion using an active x-over. Also, with an ... |
