| Why so few high end line arrays? JBThanks for the response regarding higher impedance speakers. I currently use a Zero autoformer to raise my current 4 ohm speakers to 8 (anything higher than that and it didn't sound right)Your system looks great as well. | |
| Why so few high end line arrays? After hearing some outstanding line arrays, I totally understand why people like them. I am about to get a just released line array from a manufacturer for an audition. I was worried about combing as well, but the drivers are small and quite close... | |
| Vinyl Alignment Solution - anyone used this? Wow - sounds interesting. I use Mint LP, so I suppose he caluculates this similarly then prints out the protractor for you. I use a fiber optic ear cleaning tool to get under the cart and see exactly where the stylus rests, which I suppose could b... | |
| The Best Tube Amplifiers vs Spectron ? It's quite interesting that several posters have found a SS (class D no less) that seems to stand up with some of the top designs. I have heard the Sigfreids on several occasions and found them to be excellent.But looking over StereoMojo's review,... | |
| XtremeAV Quicksilver Gold alternative? The way to get less than the brush stroke Ozzy mentioned, is to thin the QSG's paint brush load out on the plastic spatula first, loading the brush with a thin coat. This lets you apply just a fine layer on the desired connection. I often end up w... | |
| EAT Tube Damper Samhar, How would tube dampers make the system loose harmonics if the overtones weren't spurious in the first place? | |
| Best Headphones & Amp---Opinions Please I'm not a headphone guy, but then I heard the Sennheiser HD800 playing just through an ipod, and now I want a set. Too bad the wait is so long to get a pair. They are being hand built in Germany in a cleanroom, and are way backordered. | |
| Killing BluRay, new Oppo BR 83 1080I or P is approximately 6 times the amount of data od standard NTSC. VHS could resolve about 240 lines of resolution (in the same 525 scan lines that DVD has, but DVD can resolve about 500 lines of resolution on the same horizontal scan line).... | |
| Best Super-Tweek You Possibly Ever Did Lcouplin - thanks for chiming in about solar power- I always wondered what off the grid solar sounded like.Since this is the speaker forum, The best tweek I ever did for speakers was put them on a Sistrum Stand. So much more focus and bass extension. | |
| XtremeAV Quicksilver Gold alternative? They now sell it in a smaller amount to make it cost less, and Brian Kyle can send anyone the oil in case someone's older stock has dried a bit.I think the problem is that some people use too much. Less is more, just a very fine dusting I think is... | |
| New Record I really hope you wore some type of hearing protection. I sold my 16.5 because it was too loud, and shelled out insane money for a Loricraft. One person did come visit me and thought it was a keith Monks - which is cool that someone had some idea ... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I may have posted this before, but the largest Sunny Cable horn literally blew me away, but that company is in transition to a new entity, and the speakers are the size of closets, so not very practical.I have heard the latest Scaena 3.2 and thoug... | |
| New Gallo 3.5's I was at a dealer this week and asked about hearing the new 3.5, but they didn't have any information past the initial news release.Anyone else know when they will be shipping? | |
| Sistrum and Maple I can attest to the fact that that Sistrum stands Have made a vast improvement under my gear (I have their speaker stands and an SP-1 under my table).Now that being said, I recently got a Halcyonics active anti-vibration platform under my table, a... | |
| BEST cartridge money can buy? I recently heard the Koetsu Coralstone cart that I thought was fantastic, but from shootouts that were done with a few of the the top carts (posted in Vinyl Asylum) well over a year ago, the Strain Gauge came out on top in listener preferences, an... |
