Nismo:Forgot to mention that I also use record weights on my TT's (they improve/define bass).I made them myself by Blue Tacking a Mapleshade brass cone (point up) to the top of a 45 rpm adapter (any symetrical non-magnetic weight should do in plac...

Nismo:Try listing you complete system.If you are experiencing a lack of bass from your TT (with a variety of source material) then something is probably mis-matched or a poor performer.Even with small monitors (granted that they do not have a stee... 
I need some clarity
So ZaiK: What decent small monitors do you suggest in the $0-$50 price range? This is the budget that I ended up with in my last post.The MMG's can sound quite good when set up half way right and this takes some time if you are not experienced wit...

The late production Sovtek 6922's have about as much HF extension as most of the more desirable 6922's (exceptions would be early Amperex USA 7308's and Tungstram 6922's), so if you are not hearing HF detail then it's not the tubes.A silver IC wil...

What tubes are you using in the Ah! deck? These would seem to be a likely candidate as it's the source.Plenty of info on tube rolling with these units @ AA. 
Cowboy Junkies Fans-- new recording
Garfish:Looks interesting. Are these cuts from the little Promo CD's, or different stuff? Even if they are from the promos it would be nice to have a bunch of them on one CD.

Lovan: Stereophile recommended disappointment.
Fran:Here is a $200 rack that has adjustable upturned brass spikes for all of the shelves. It looks to be pretty much the same as my older Studio Tech.http://www.racksandstands.com/asp/show_detail.asp?catid=38&sku=SO0002Other than upgrading th... 
Pipe music to kitchen
I have always used a radio in places with separate/isolated kitchens.I do not use radio as a source in Hifi setups, but enjoyed listening to it while cooking (my old radio was a KLH Model 21).People seem to like the new Tivoli radios which look si... 
Musical Heritage Society LP's
Timchin:They have catalog numbers on them. The ones that I picked up start in the 300's and end up in the 2300's or so. I have seen later digital LP's by MHS and even have a few CD's by them.As far as the range that I own goes, I have never notice... 
Electrocompaniet EMC-1: let's talk?
Ernie: Send it on over (I need the practice for when I install the C4S boards in my Paramours:-).Probably need a few bottles of Maker's Mark as well, just to keep the old hands steady.
