| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat mrs_ppt Why did you put the E-Mats under your cars floormats? No one has answered my question as to how far the mat effect is horizontally. Does it spread significantly wider than the dimensions or just remain within the dimensions? | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat I am not looking to upgrade my Legacy Focus speakers although I had been contemplating $50-$60K speakers to replace them. This is due to a combination of the recent upgrades to my system. The first was the installation of a dozen Omega E-Mats. ... | |
| How do you store and catalog your vinyl? I figured my collection would take about 4 months, non-stop, end to end. Probably 10 years at 1.5 to 2 hours a day leisurely which is what I am doing. I just have to get rid of 4,000 LPs and 2,000 78s in my storage shed and stop buying more. | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? I guess all the posters think that my Kevlar 7" pair of mid-range drivers produce poor mid-range sound and don't integrate with my dome tweeter and ribbon super-tweeter. However, somehow Legacy has managed to make a superlative sounding speaker, ... | |
| How do you store and catalog your vinyl? My acquaintances who have/had 1 million or more LPs do/did not have not categorized at all or very well. What a mish mosh as they generally didn't listen but only collect records. My friend with 250,000 78s used index cards and had easy shelving... | |
| How do you store and catalog your vinyl? uberwaltz - That's me. I have 7,000 CDs (5,500) stored in metal cabinets with custom drawers http://www.can-am.ca/ and 1,000 on shallow bookcase shelving. The box sets are separated on top of the shelving. These are cataloged.The 7,000 78s and ... | |
| Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music I heard the Bryston 7BSST3s with an EAR 912 tube preamp and it sounded excellent on Carver Amazing speakers. Actually, more like superb in the mids and highs. Upgrading the fuses and duplex are low cost upgrades. Do not use Bryston A/C cables. ... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? I was so lucky to have heard Ashkenasy, Arrau, Bachauer, Ciccolini, Kubelik/Bavarian Orch and so many other great classical musicians in ideal conditions from where I sat. Royce Hall was renovated maybe 15 or 20 years ago and the balcony ha... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? Since I’ve installed 32 Synergistic Research HFTs, my slap echo and other room acoustic anomalies have abated. Each HFT appears to broaden the reflection soundwaves, probably increasing the reflection times. They certainly don’t shorten the soundw... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? I used to think that tone controls were necessary decades ago. With the ability to hear music at both high and low levels, I don’t have a problem with hearing frequency extremes and mids. My 78s have limited bandwith and I only need e.q. for their... | |
| Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money No, I'm not superstitious concerning cryo. I just happen not to have any equipment or tweaks which use it. Synergistic Research believes in zapping cables and tweaks with "quantum tunnelling" which I think is the 2 million volt jolt instead of c... | |
| Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money Geoff-Could be Morrow. GroverHuffman uses a mix of copper and silver but I don't recall silver coated copper, maybe aluminum coated copper (1 strand) in a return in A/C cables. His formula uses a mix of materials and gauges just as his major shi... | |
| Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money Right, my GroverHuffman cables do not use cryo treatments, hyper pure metal, various ways to align the conductors but insulation is one of the reasons his cables sound much better. His claim is mostly in the design of the cables, then the materia... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? I vote for Legacy Focus (originals or 20/20) for the best bang for the buck with the "warm" sound of analog music using Kevlar mid-ranges. Cheaper, more efficient and easier to drive (current hungry though) than so many new speakers. Deep bass, ... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? You tell me Audiotroy and Inna. I agree with prof that Blue Jean cables are musically adequate (not for me). They outperform many HEA cables costing $5K, $10, $15/m However, that's because of the defects in those cables; in particular, I dislik... |
