| Records not stored vertically for decades So since you have about 200 albums, I would run them all thru a US RCM. That will get rid of any mould/dirt/dust, etc. The only ones I would worry about for warping are the top 5-10, since they would not have much weight on them. Vinyl is heavy, s... | |
| Signal tube versus power tube, sound impact? my manual for my amp and pre-amp - both from Decware - says to roll tube V1 - 12AX7 - in the preamp and the 2 input tubes - 6922 - in the amp, before doing anything else. Amp is EL34. I currently have Winged C's and much prefer their bass and mid... | |

| Steely Dan UHQR +1 larsman - I had no idea I have the ABC 1006 - I listened to the ABC version and the UHQR version last night - the UHQR is WAY better sound all around. If you love SD, its worth if. As others have pointed out, they don't like SD, so no way are ... | |
| Steely Dan UHQR SD is one of my fav bands. I have the MoFi version of Aja that Stan Ricker mastered. Excellent sound. The UHQR version is better - is if worth $150? Depends. I don't think so, but it is definitely better than the MoFi version. Dynamics and quieter... | |
| please help an audiophile's widow sorry for your loss of your husband and the speaker. Do you have a picture you can post? That would be a big help. | |
| Heavy Vinyl IMHO the weight of the vinyl has pretty much zero to do with the sound. I have some great sounding albums from the 70's that flex like crazy. The sound is going to be affected by a host of other things, one of which is who mastered the music in th... | |

| Please recommend decoupling footers for DAC Google 'Speaker Isolation Springs'. I have these under my speakers, amp, preamp. Cheap and they work. Townsend are apparently the Bentley, but I can't afford those. | |
| Jazz for aficionados @ho249. Thanks! And thanks all for suggestions/comments. This is great! More new music. I have been on a classical kick for the past month or so. Got a bunch of stuff off Discogs - almost all in excellent shape - Mozart Symphonies; Mozart String... | |
