| Rega reference belt disappointment But was it cryogenically treated before you tried your experiment? | |
| Need Recommendation for Coffee Shop Stop thinking of this installation in terms of home audio. It is for background music while folks are enjoying your wares. Unless your venue is being advertised as a listening lounge, you want your patrons to be comfortable being there, and able... | |

| How Much to Spend on Turntable, Cart., Phono Pre How much $$ you got, bub? Really, though, with the level of gear you've got you should be working with a local dealer to come up with a vinyl rig that works well with your existing setup. Or you can just start the vinyl rig churn (but it was rec... | |
| Exceding recommended power rating +1 to what Eric says; you're likely using between 1-10 watts for listening 99% of the time. | |

| How to choose speakers that won't overpower your room? All about placement and setup. I use Klipsch Forte IV's with a REL S/510 in a room that's 12x10 with 9-12 foot ceiling, arranged asymmetrically. Probably not a typical choice for a room that size, but works out better than my Salk monitors (with... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Springsteen. "You ain't the boss of me!" | |
| Gain level on a REL sub +1 it's not the sub, it's the placement. I've got at least one "suckout" location in my room that completely cancels the bass; sounds like you've already found yours. Get one sub properly set up before you consider a second. | |
| The Sacred Ritual of Vinyl: A Return to Mindful Listening Or you could just pull it out, drop the needle and enjoy! (Long time vinyl lover/collector, and I keep things clean to start with, so not inspired to be anal about any "ritual".) |
