| I've finally lost it I don't remember who said it but "To travel hopefully is better than to arrive". | |
| I've finally lost it I too have quit the endless search for perfection, several times. | |
| I've finally lost it Common sense dictates that you ought to get someone to copy the three LPs onto CDs. However, life would be dull if we always used common sense. Try to find some other irrational project that costs less. | |
| Results from Beta Testers of New Formulas Paul...The Oxyclean is just an idea, but Vodka has been used for years. It is a darned pure alcohol/water mix. If it doesn't work for you, other uses can be found, and I guess that goes for the Oxyclean too.Playing records wet is real. Radio stati... | |
| DVD-A recording titles to die for Jeffreybehr..."transported to the concert hall" is what a really good stereo system will do. Multichannel can do it somewhat better. However, multichannel can also do something that stereo can't...transport a small group of musicians, classical ch... | |
| DVD-A recording titles to die for If your setup is multichannel, and you will listen to classical, try TACET DVD D107, Mozart Flute Quartets. To really get the full impact, your rear speakers ought to be as good as the fronts. Other TACET discs are also excellent, but this is the ... | |
| Results from Beta Testers of New Formulas Use of enzymatic cleaners is the latest greatest thing for getting grass stains off your kid's jeans, but I would not think that the kind of dirt that gets on LPs is an appropriate application, but it would be worth a try. Why not use Shout, Oxycl... | |

| Audio out of sync with video DVD I think that the audio delay feature is intended to compensate for different distances to speakers in a multichannel system, and as such is too short to have any use in correcting a noticable video/audio out-of- sync condition. I think that the ou... | |
| Is it worth spending $10k on CD-only player today? I'm not sure that it ever was. In digital media sonic quality is ultimately limited by the finite amount of information on the disc. Playback equipment, no matter how good (or expensive) can only approach a limit imposed by the media. The informat... | |
| Spindle oil Sean...By the way, that Bose writeup on active suspension reads as if Bose invented it. Interesting reading, but typical Bose propaganda. Many people have worked on active suspension over at least four decades. GE was doing it when I went to work ... | |
| Spindle oil Guys...I guess you still don't "get" the concept behind the Sony arm. Perhaps my explanation was not the best.The gist of the thing is that the Sony arm IS A PIVOTED ONE. What moves with the linear motion servo is the pivot point. Even if the serv... | |
| Spindle oil Herman...Confusion is not the issue. It's just that you are citing the kinds of problems that a slipshod servo design might exhibit. By the way, the reason that relatively inexpensive linear tracking systems did not become very popular is that:1. ... | |
| Cabling to FM Antenna Broimp...Winegard makes a signal preamp with 300 ohms in and 75 ohms out. This is probably the overall best you can do. |
