| Turntable Leveling, Again Try using a "bulls-eye" level. This has a clear dome showing the level for the entire 360 degree range instantaneously , and will make leveling a shelf (or a turntable) MUCH easier! | |
| My favorite local FM Station is using HD Radio ? Squawk! Fatparrot is out of the loop! SQUAWK! Herman, thanks for the heads-up. After reading about "HD-Radio", it appears to be a marketing ploy to lull gullible consumers into purchasing "the next digital frontier". SUCKERS!THERE IS NO QUANTUM LE... | |
| My favorite local FM Station is using HD Radio ? Is this a joke???? Maybe I'm out of the loop, but I've never heard of "HI-Def" BROADCAST FM, just the new (and supposedly, sonically inferior) satellite digital radio systems, X-FM and Sirus, I believe. Sounds like your station is pulling a market... | |
| Hi-Def DVD Players Unclejeff, glad to know that my "effort" was appreciated! Actually, copy & paste made this post almost no effort at all! I like watching the new audio/video technology emerging, and observing reasons that competing or innovative technology fai... | |

| Home made recorddings I would certainly consider analog tape for recording an analog (vinyl) source! | |
| enough watts to drive these speakers? Help? Bombaywalla, I understand where you got the 6 dB figure (voltage), which can throw confusion into the mix, depending on whether we are talking about voltage, or power readings. But I thought that actual acoustic sound waves (spl) were a measure of... | |
| What am I looking for with strobe disc? A hit of acid? | |
| enough watts to drive these speakers? Help? Bombaywalla, wouldn't moving back from 1 meter to 2 meters result in a 3 dB loss, not a 6 dB loss? | |
| Shipping a CD player? Where is the Transit Screw? Porschecab, NO S**T! I cross threaded a spark plug on a Honda 350 myself!!! Was on a road trip in Key West way back in '73, and decided to pull & clean the plugs...AT DUSK. I couldn't really see, and when one started in tight, I just kept cran... | |

| Best tube preamp with phono stage and mono switch? Just curious, why the need for a mono switch? | |
| Shipping a CD player? Where is the Transit Screw? STOP!!! Do not start tightening or loosening any allens UNTIL you make sure that these, are indeed, the transport screws. Keep calling Wadia, or a local Wadia dealer. Sometimes, the information about transport screws is printed on a sheet of paper... |
