Hum problem with Alpha Goertz Sapphire cable - RCA type Thank you so much for info. I believe you guys are right.Let me give some more info - The first pair of Sapphire that was shipped was so poorly assembled that one channel faded in and out. This is the second pair. Based on your experience I start ... | |
Anyone heard of lumley tube amps?? I have a pair of M-100s. Bought them from Ray Lumley in 1984. Lumley and Grant were together first and produced the Grant Lumley amp. After the split Grant made the Grant amp and Ray produced the Lumley. Sweet tube sound.They were in business unti... | |
Are Tuners - Audiophile quality Thank you everyone. I do not feel as stupid as I did when I posted it. I have had my tuner connected to my big TV antenna, 30 feet above the roof. The TV antenna did not make any improvement. Sounds like rabbit ears. I live close to downtown Washi... | |
Are Tuners - Audiophile quality Continued - equally bad. My tuner produces the sound of a $ 100 turntable (including arm and cartridge) and less than any CD on the market. Does anyone know if you can get "audiophile quality" from a tuner. Any recommendation of a tuner that produ... | |
Stacking power amps mono blocks Thank you. I am starting to get convinced. Need to run to look for amp-stands for my mono blocks.Cheers. | |
Spade termination on speaker Thanks everyone. Learned a lot. In the end figured out that I had some combined banana plugs for the speakers that allow to screw the spade into the top of the connector. The unit is brass and from a company called Mitchell. I bought them 15 years... | |

Stacking power amps mono blocks Thanks everyone. Seems as I am not the only one struggling with this. Since I do not like the empty shelf in the stand, it look weird with a hole and 8 inch of air. I need to look into one of two options.1. Move the stereo so I can have one powera... | |
Treating speaker cones Thanks everyone. Seem as I may have listened to too much to Mr. Magician. Speakers still sound fine. But the audio bug makes me continue to think about tweaks. | |
Syrinx and Linn Basik Plus tonearms? I remember the Syrinx arm. It was great in the mid 80's. It is a very analytical and dynamic arm. Candidly it was better than the Ittok, Linn's high end arm. Use the Syrinx. I am sure it is a lot better than Linn Basic Plus. | |
Monster HTM 3500 conditioner is noisy I have a HTS2500. Dead silent. Best item I have ever purchased for my system. Your unit must have an issue. I always disconnect the main powercord when not in use to protect equipment when not in use. | |
Apt-Holman pre-amp I had an Apt Holman long time ago. I replaced it with an Audio Research SP-10 pre-amp. The difference was night and day. The Apt Holman does not have a stable image. You can not tell where a voice is coming from. I feel the Apt-Holman must have do... |
