| Right Speaker input not working! Cleaning contacts can be good, however, playing for a few minutes, then cutting out is not a dirty contact issue IMO.Speakers, two pairs? Do you have the receiver's manual? Unless you have a selector up front for speakers A, or B, or A+B, it m... | |

| Is it all worth it? Before upgrading my Phono system, I made a decision to properly clean my old lps, what a difference it makes.just scrubbed 20 more lps yesterday. Without exception, every one I clean sounds great. Sometimes, rarely, I get a bit of static between t... | |

| Has anyone else auditioned something that really was terrible? Or, come to think about it, they might have concluded the speakers sucked, or McIntosh sucked, not realizing more power would have changed everything. | |
| Has anyone else auditioned something that really was terrible? McIntosh Amp at a high end dealership.I wanted to hear a pair of well regarded speakers, low sensitivity, at one of the most respected NJ dealers. I took some music with me, one being Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds, a lot to deal with, and one spe... | |

| Is it all worth it? my reel to reel player/tapes are my best source. tape has never gone silent for so long as during my TT upgrade project. Finished. Until something breaks I'm done, listening to LP's more than ever. New to me: Large Plinth Dual Arm JVC-Victor TT81;... | |
| What would you say is THE MOST important factor to good imaging? assuming excellent engineering of source material, any decent system, and decent speakers:speaker placement in a room with not too close side and rear walls to avoid too early reflections, listening position close to equal distance triangle, adjus... |
