| has anybody else noticed this about singers? woodie guthrie taught everyone, certainly me, that voice doesn’t matter.when I first heard Bob Dylan’s voice coming out of my older brother’s room, I opened the door, saw a half dozen brainiac acolytes huddled, and said "You Call that MUCIC!!!!"

| What tube preamp to go with McIntosh MC275? I have never been happier than with my current setup which includes McIntosh Vintage Tube Tuner/Preamp mx110z.I sold McIntosh SS C28 Preamp and bought the mx110z.Happily, when I went to TT with 2 tonearms, mx110z’s two phono inputs made it easy.ht... | |
| Help a newbie understand I must inform you, you choose speakers that need a LOT of power, they are LOW Sensitivity.sensitivity = 1 watt in; mic 1 meter away; how loud _____ db???Your Cantons, given 1 watt, only produce 87db of sound 1 meter away.I, and many others recomme... | |
| Looking for a phono preamp that has volume control features? budget?I am a fan of both remote volume and remote balance, of any source, while in listening position. | |
| couldn't stand the weather I’m in Plainfield, NJ.what’s the temperature range INSIDE the garage?humidity an issue? I cannot leave my attached garage's outside door open on humid days because I might get condensation dripping from ducts onto shelves of tapes or lps. | |
| Amplifier for Bowers 805 d3 Recommendations speakers are 88 sensitivity, McIntosh is the lowest power but probably enoughyou might have separate phono, but thinking for the future, just considering phono, hegel has none, McIntosh has 1 MM in; Parasound has a switchable input, either MM, MCH... | |
| Rega Planar 10/Aria MC Phono Stage HUM I've never had hum in anything, SS or Tubes, that I could not find and eliminate, over 50 years of various equipment, bargain, garage sales, used, new, ...lack of hum does not involve more money.you had no hum, you have it now, you have tried enou... | |

| Perhaps a Stupid Question If you do change the cable, then consider that you will buy an expensive cable, and most likely want to use that cable later on a different TT or Tonearm.Solder cable with RCA Male; solder RCA Female Jacks at TT or somewhere. Solder Din connector ... | |
| Perhaps a Stupid Question I seriously doubt you will achieve an audible difference. If the cable was deteriorated, that’s a different issue.I would look to upgrading the TT sometime, perhaps one with the potential to change the tonearm.Think long range now, what arm(s), ca... | |
| Seems tough to ensure only subwoofer is playing bass frequencies (& not the main speakers) that sub has ’output high pass’ https://www.velodyneacoustics.com/digital-drive-plus-series/ the sub grabs the bass, and crosses over at either 80hz or 100hz as you choose.you send full range separate left and right signals to sub first, then it ... | |

| Rega Planar 10/Aria MC Phono Stage HUM I would get rid of that Aria, you may minimize it, but it sounds like it will always be a problem, even if minimized, you deserve no hum. | |
| Cooling fan for tube amp? What amp?If it needed a fan, they would have built one in, or stated so in the literature/specs. Enclosed, trapped heat, yes, butI would never add a fan if I could re-arrange for an 'open air' arrangement. My Cayin A88T has 4 KT88's, 2 6sn7, 2 6s... |
