| spikes , cones or platforms? "their is no substitute for trial and error"Samujohn is right, this is exactly what it boils down to!Cheers,Detlof | |
| Audio Alchemy OM 150 hum. What is the cause? Well I don't know, it could very well be the amp after all.Have you tried it with a grounding wire, as I had suggested? | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? I think I'll join the fray again here, in spite of what I had said before:1. Music can move you, no matter what medium is used toconvey it.2. Once you have become an audiophile, sound matters, sometimes more than music. One might even go so far as... | |
| digital connection from computer to pre-amp Apart from what Sammie suggests, if you want to spend some money, I would first try Rhanson's suggestion. The HagUSB is excellent and yes you can choose between an XLR or RCA out and it costs about a 100 bucks | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Obviously this group of music lovers over here, including myself must live on another planet, since"there is no evidence that enjoyment of music is highly correlated to sound quality. in fact there were two studies published in stereophile, author... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Hi Newbee, Heck I wished i had never confessed about that language thing....it makes me feel embarrassed now..., but besides my red face Newbee, I absolutely agree with everything you say here and neither am I in disagreement with Mrtennis as far ... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Drubin, thanks so much "for the flowers". I just read your comment right now after having written the above. Glad I'm not alone on this......Cheers,D | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Guido, since English is not my mother tongue, I would not have the vocabulary to describe what you have so beautifully put forth, it is now my turn to say that I understand what you mean... in spades! Thank you!Mrtennis, Yes, we do not speak of so... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Hi Guido, do you think the Panocha disk would also work with ferrets? We have some frolicking in the attic. Yes, and I must try the Lenny CD. It might get the ferrets out of my head...Seriously now, I also know quite a number of redbook CDs full o... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? On the other hand however, to pay justice to digital, the art of digital recording has tremendously improved in the last 10 to 15 years. Recordings of small combos, indidividual solo instruments and voices seem to my ears mostly better rendered th... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Davemitchell is right to my mind and ears: If a LP is properly cleaned and well treated, there will be no clicks and pops on a properly set up TT and quite often, Abe, there is a hell of a lot of hiss on prerecorded open reel tapes. I know, I own ... | |
| Audio Alchemy OM 150 hum. What is the cause? Larry, sometimes you have higher harmonics of those 60 cycles, but the cause may still be a ground loop. Do you get your power to all your gear from the same outlet in the wall? If not, try that. I would also experiment with a piece of grounding w... | |
| Anyone recommend a neutral tube amp? Not only a clichè but in most cases a thing of the past! | |
| Anyone recommend a neutral tube amp? I've done a lot of tube rolling in my time on various preamps and amps and as I said before, it does have an effect on the sound, sometimes tightening the bass a bit, opening up the midrange slightly, or sweetening the highs a tad, but the effects... | |
| Anyone recommend a neutral tube amp? Ralph, I did not wish to imply that tubes add a coloration to the sound. What I should have said is, that tube rolling will INFLUENCE the rendition of music of a given component. When I wrote my post, I forgot for this moment, that "colour" is det... |
