| Musical Fidelity X-10 Tube Buffer Stage Bob BundusRecord out to the X-10? And then "monitor" through the tape loop?This will still require 2 sets of cables to the buffer but I guess just one coming off the SCD-1 which is better in your opinion?This should also make for some easy and int... | |

| Musical Fidelity X-10 Tube Buffer Stage So I ordered the X-10 from amusicdirect.com and blew $50 bucks on shipping so I could have it in time for the weekend.My first reaction is: WOW.Frankly I was very skeptical and thought I might just check it out and shamelessly send it right back i... | |
| Reversing Polarity -- Voodoo or Easy Tweak? Jea48That's it! ....the exact text which inspired this post. I was just working from memory as my LPs have been in storage for 12 years. | |
| Review: Yamaha PX-3 Turntable newbeatgood luck -- a very cool turntableAs I recall, there is not much to do on the set up side.Check the physical level of the turntable obviously.Otherwise I think the only adjusments would be tracking force and overhang on the cartridge?If you... | |

| Best Spooky, Moody, Atmospheric Home Theatre Demo Fahrenheit 9-11I, too, was terrified. But I can't decide which was more terrifying: Michael Moore's chippy arrogance or the thought of George Bush running the world.Marilyn Manson, ironically, put me at ease. | |

| Reversing Polarity -- Voodoo or Easy Tweak? HermanExcellent post!TvadAt the risk of oversimplifying things here:If ONE speaker has + and - (it's polarity) reversed, then the system will be "out of phase".And no offense , but no self respecting audiophile should need a test disc to hear this... | |
| Reversing Polarity -- Voodoo or Easy Tweak? Tvad and othersDidnt know it was called "absolute phase" - this is what was recommended on the first edition Dave Grusin vinyl.So I guess the answer is like biwiring: it depends?! | |
| Long Wall Speaker Placement: Pros and Cons? Unsound and othersI finally got everything moved to the long wall yesterday.Good news -- even before dialing the panels into tweaked position, I can tell it is going to sound just fine and probably even better. This is a real news flash for me aft... | |
| HSU Ventriloquist for Bedroom HT and Music Ah....Lord of the Rings. Have not seen it or listened to the "dynamic score".But funny coincidence. Sorry to drop a name, but I have just returned from a dinner where I sat across the table from Howard Shore. I was not familiar with his work on Lo... | |
| Long Wall Speaker Placement: Pros and Cons? Mikesinger and othersI need to read the audio physic text again on placement.It all seems very interesting, but would you say it is not appropriate for dipoles? | |
