| They should charge more for it… It doesn't take a great engineer to build a 500K turntable that sounds good. You're great if you can make one for $5,000. Of course, IMO, these price-no-object products are about making money for the manufacturer. | |
| What A Drag It Is Getting Old Proves that you don't listen to much vinyl. | |
| Quboz cuts off beginning of songs I had this problem with my Sony 5400 CD player. In my case, it turned out to be a known problem (was documented in the manual) with the HDMI interface protocol. Would always cut of the first half-second of music when using HDMI output. Can't say i... | |
| Room Analysis-How? Just for fun, walk around your room and clap your hands. You're listening for any echos. This occurs when two flat walls face each other. If heard, hang a large beach towel on one of the walls (foam panel from Guitar Center, etc. is better). Repe... | |
| What to expect for Audio Advice Live 2025? Is this a new show? What city? What dates? Thanks | |
| CD's or Vinyl? Just starting out, I’d choose streaming. Phys-med takes too much room to store. And streaming can only get better over time, right? Downside, political editing. | |
| Favorite Song Lyrics of All Time. What Say You? I can explain it to you But I can't understand it to you From a song I might write some day | |
| Tannoy or Volti P.S. Regarding Klipsch Forte-4 For a good speaker cable connection (to binding post), use ONLY banana plugs. Spades can be used but anything more than "finger tight" will cause the inner nut to go loose. I think this is why I open the binding pos... | |
| Tannoy or Volti @charles007100 As a Forte-4 owner, let me tell you my experience. Shortly after purchase, I decided to open the binding post assembly to check for tightness, etc.. I found some connection "extenders’, i.e. small strips of stainless steel. These a... | |
| Your first concert was to see who and when? Saint Matthias, third grade, 1962. A 25 piece Classical ensemble performed. Made a lasting impression. First Rock music was a free Jefferson Airplane concert (old bandshell, South end of Grant Park, Chicago). Must have been 1967. | |
| Was anyone else caught out by this? I once saw an ad for a built-in wall oven that had controls on top. My eves saw a Pre-amp sitting on top of an Amplifier. "You know you're an Audiophile when you...". | |
| Tannoy or Volti For $16k, I’d look for some as-new B&W 803 D4s or maybe something from ATC. | |
| Why so many B & W Speakers on the used market? B&W makes a fine product (some will like them more than others, of course). They have been around for ages and have sold many speakers. | |
| Harbeth 40.3 XDs Heard the 7.2 at an audio show and thought they were the definition of coherent. | |
| Sound right before song begins on vinyl, what is it? I remember back in the tape days, a rule of thumb was to never use fast-forward or rewind before storing your just-played tape. just let it keep playing 'till the end. Don't remember why, exactly. But it was a rule for hard-cores. |
