Any audio gifts for Christmas?
I buy stuff for myself all year so decided to get a CD player for my mom. I ordered some CD's for her & told her to go to the store & play a CD & pick out the one she likes & I'll buy it (she's 1100 miles away). I'm trying to make ... 
Best of the holidays to all...
Hope everyone had a good Christmas & are going to have a Happy New Year. 
Question about cassette player settings
Just a little to add to the above. I've been making tapes with the same H-K deck since 1987 & have to agree with Celtic66 on not using Dolby. I also *push* the recording level so it hovers between 0 and +1 dB with peaks reaching into the red. ... 
Bigger Amp?
The HT Pro Silways introduced too much shrillness/brightness/sibilance into my system. The Truthlinks were a lot warmer sounding at the expense of some rolled off highs, but worth it to me. I currently use something else, but possibly you could ex... 
Vonschweikert VR4 GENIII?
I was impressed enough with this speaker to order a set and this is the first major retail purchase I have made in 10 years. I just can't bring myself to pay retail for what I believe to be overpriced gear & have bought used/demo for a long ti... 
Should i upgrade my Meridian 508.20 to 508.24?
Power cord suggestion is Stealth M-21. I have the 506.24 & am running all Stealth IC's & PC's except for one modified LAT. During my IC & PC upgrade path the Meridian just kept giving me more detail, less brightness, more air, etc., so... 
Original Packaging, you gotta have it.
I want to clarify something. Drivers and dock workers are paid different rates. I was referring to dock workers at $8.00 an hour. That's at the low end of the scale but does not go much beyond $12.00 an hour. The last time I checked, UPS's top dri... 
Original Packaging, you gotta have it.
Well Kevziek, I'm not defending anybody's job to do it in a substandard manner. I'm stating facts. As to underworked & overpaid, would you do that job for $8.00 an hour? Out in the elements? Don't deserve the job they have? Maybe it's the only... 
Which cable will reduce harshness of CD player?
I went thru the IC thing earlier this year as I found myself with the same problem. Using a Meridian 506.24 to get a good cable match I wound up with Stealth FLR, upgraded to Stealth CWS and am now using Stealth PGS. I tried AQ Python, HT Pro-Silw... 
Heat Shrink Tubing - How ???
I've used heat shrink hundreds of times and mostly used a wooden match, either the regular kitchen type or somewhat bigger strike anywhere. Sometimes I even use a propane torch when I have a lot to do but like to save the propane so I can start my... 
How to ship large speakers between US and Canada..
Give Central transport a call at: http://www.centraltransportint.com/ & ask if they can beat the discount Yellow gave you, say 60% (don't give them a dollar amount). Also, whoever you use make sure you palletize the load. Also use a tip over d... 
Recordings that trounce your system?
Uh, it's the I wish I never bought it version. Actually, not a bad deal for an '84. It's still running. 
Original Packaging, you gotta have it.
I have a different perspective on shipping, so let me explain. I've been involved with the trucking industry for most of my adult life, so let me tell you guys what happens. Some of the trucks & trailers have air ride, some don't. Some roads a... 
Recordings that trounce your system?
That was a great story SD! I had a pair of the 565's & ran them with a set of the old style Kappa 8's. I had to wear earplugs when I cranked up anything past the 10 to 11 o'clock position if I didn't want my ears to ring. When asked why I play... 
GEORGE HARRISON
Hard to imagine that when I bought All Things Must Pass 30 years ago on cassette for my first boom box that his words would ring true. The Beatles were a major influence for me & we all were lucky to experience some of the magic while he was a...
