| Dr. Feickert Blackbird Thank you everyone! @elliottbnewcombjr I too love the Luxman and Thorens tables. I looked long and hard at those. Most of my equipment in the past has been from the 70's including Nakamichi, Klipsch, Thorens, and AR. I think I need to move int... | |
| Isolation Advice Needed +1 Townshend...love em'. My bouncy floor still bounces and my equipment floats. | |
| recommended speaker cables and interconnects I can recommend the new Decware power cable, and also the interconnects. Fairly priced and a big improvement | |
| Survey on Cost of Loudspeakers Supported On Townshend Seismic Isolation Podiums Don't sweat the cost of the speakers. Mine were virtually free. The previous owner wanted to give them a good home. I have built my system around these speakers to see how much I could get out of them (Belle Klipsch 1978ish). The Townsend "bars" ... | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer I love my MA8900. Outperforms the Vintage Nakamichi I had before. Not saying much, but if you don't believe me, listen to my Belle Klipsch. They love it too. | |
| How much of High End Audio is Horn Speakers? I love my Belle Klipsch enough that I am building my system around them. So far no regrets. Upgrades, isolation, clean power. What they give in return is depth, detail and an “I’m at the show” feel. | |

| Observation: Passion vs Obsession My point if there was one, was an observation that seems true. May or may not be for you. The truth is that whatever you are involved in you should enjoy the journey. SG by Soundsmith is still a dream for me, but I enjoy the Zephyr MIMC Star until... | |
| Observation: Passion vs Obsession @boxer12 Exactly. @noske No measurement or proof necessary. Just feel it...your neurons do. | |
| Soundsmith Strain Gauge - Thank You! @millercarbonWell done! Can't wait to hear about it. I'm currently on an upgrade freeze for 2021. I will live vicariously through you and others.If you decide to sell the Herron, please add me to the list, as I'm sure there are others.Have fun!Eddie | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! @pcourtney Agreed! Still loving my bars under my Belle Klipsch and Nobsound under my Turntable. Maybe time to step up that game as well as under my integrated. | |
| Adding a Turntable Mat Also Herbie's has matts of various thicknesses which allows you to dial in your VTA. It can be a challenge to measure the difference from where it is now to where you need to be, but gives you another option. Especially after added the OL Cartrid... | |
| Owning the speakers you dreamed of 20 years ago Upgraded my Belle Klipsch crossovers with ALK extreme slope, put them on Townsend Bars and I am in love. I will look into a tweeter upgrade next, based on some of the above comments. I was already on that path anyway. | |
| why do so many discussions turn contentious? Almarg seems like a sage. Too bad I missed him, Johnnie-come-lately. |
