| open baffle speaker question Hi Hotmailjbc,you have two very good recommendations here, the Orion and several designs by GR Research. Nice thing about many of the GR designs is that they incorporate a 12" sub into the cabinet, but the separate sub is always an option. These m... | |
| What credit cards do you use? What?!?! You think they are really giving you free money? ;-) Most likely they are charging you in fees and then giving a small rebate to make you feel good about spending money you don't have. :-)I'm not saying the debit card is a replacement for... | |
| What credit cards do you use? That cash you are getting back is built in, pre-paid, and I personally would not ever rely on CC protection as a reason to use a CC, but I do agree with you about carrying a CC balance. I used to agree that cards can be a tool, but not any more. T... | |
| Middle Eastern, North African music these days? Is Masekela north African, or south African? Anyway, I like him a a lot. Also, Dudu Pakwana. This makes me want to go through that stack of s. African jazz a friend gave me a while back. Oh, yeah. Another one came to mind. Dollar Brand, who later ... | |
| What credit cards do you use? Sometimes I use the CC up front and then I borrow against my 401k, pay off the cc balance, and pay myself back at a higher interest rate than I can otherwise get from money market. One thing is for sure, the use of CC will only get more and more e... | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? ;-) I was just following your FR thread on DIYaudio. More ideas. I gotta stop! ;-) | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? Very nice job indeed! Your work has given me some ideas for a new rack system. I think I may try alternating layers of 1/2" mdf and 1/2" plywood. | |
| Dynavector 20x2 High or Low Output? Tketcham is correct to point out that the OP is referring to the NEW 20x2 which retails for $850 usd. dealer disclaimer | |
| Setting Antiskate - visually Well, call me silly, too. | |
| Magic Eraser used for vinyl cleaning? I feel the opposite. I'd steam before using an eraser on an LP. Besides, there is no way to be sure the fibers get into the grooves. | |
| Dead Can Dance New LP "into the labrynth" I have heard that the Mofi is very good. I'd love to have the 4AD but this title commands some big prices. Guess I'll "settle" for the mofi. ;-) | |
| moody blues vs rock hall of fame The Moodys should be in if for no other reason than they were the masters of the concept album, the flow from one song into the next. They were/are all real, talented musicians. They actually played all of the instruments heard on their albums. | |
| Why Use Aluminum for a TT Platter? T_bone, very good post. This DD sub-topic came about after some general comments about dd/bd and mass, and thus my own generalized comments. It is most definitely a much more complicated discussion. I think if Chris starts talking about eddy curre... | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? You guys all have some nice looking racks. ;-) Are you looking for improvements or just a different look? I ask because I'm leaning toward re-doing my racks also. In my case I have found better results with using products like rollerballs and Stil... | |
| Ground loop b/w amp and phono stage Try another phono stage. I don't know why or what, but sometimes Pass gear doesn't play well with other gear. That is not meant as a put down, just what I've experienced. |
