| Brand new to vinyl: Help! When I was starting out with a high end system back in the 1981, I purchased the Dynavector 10X3, an Ultracraft tone-arm and a VPI 19 (since upgraded to a IV version and used for 78 rpm records). Sure, my current turntable/arm/cartridge system is... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic Ha Ha Funny. You already stated you read this and the fuse forums for fun only. I have better agenda with my life than reading forums for fun. I post and read for information concerning audio products and processes. If I want fun, I read the c... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic Okay, I decided to use the TC on the barrel of the single ended RCA connectors (the ground) on the CD player, SUT and preamp inputs, DO NOT put TC inside holes which Mr. Mrock said NO! to in his instructions. I was really surprised at the result... | |
| Where do I start-amp or speakers ? I suggest that you think of what type of speaker you want and then you can narrow your choice of amplifier. You can do that the other way around as well; however, the amp can be placed anywhere but the speakers should have an optimal location. As ... | |
| Vintage tube suggestions Mullards are great in bass in the EL34s I run in my highly modified voltage regulated Dyna Stereo 70. Deep and punchy in Legacy Signature IIIs. Also, the Mullard 12AX7 I get great bass in a 3rd system with an EAR 864 preamp using the military v... | |
| Where do I start-amp or speakers ? I have a 13' X 28' living room but my second audio system. I bought used Legacy Signature IIIs and have a radically modified Dyna 70 as well as an EAR 890 to drive them. They are very efficient and easy to drive (an 18 watt Sherwood receiver is ... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic I just reported to Audiogon an email concerning shadorne LYING about anyone receiving a commission. This forum is not a promotional venue for anyone other than Tim Mrock of Total Contact. This forum is for presentation of a new tweak's properti... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic I decided to try the TC on my old EAR 324 phono pre-amp because I knew that I would gain more bass and more colorful, detailed mids using TC as it did everywhere else. The problem I had with the EAR 324 was an impedance mismatch (too high or too l... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic No, the changes were made incrementally. The full TC treatment was also added to my living room CD only audio system which only had the SR Blue Fuse and SR Black duplex, otherwise, no room treatment at all (great room acoustics). My wife liked t... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic My wife would not listen to her music (rock) when we first met when I had Martin Logan Monolith IIIs and Quests. No bass, no dynamics, poor listening area. I was driving them with Audio Research Classic 60s and an AR SP14. Maybe it wasn't suffi... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic P.P.S. It was really difficult to use only two sets of HFTs to sound correct. Often, the bass would be too lean or treble to bright depending on my placement. Following the preferred setup did not work until I installed the speaker kits, then ch... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic P.S. The first two sets of HFTs were insufficient for me to remove rear panel diffusers and absorbing panels. After I installed two speaker kit HFTs I removed all room treatments except for Hallographs. | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic ronrags I tried the HFTs only without my Hallographs and did not like the result either. While the sound was enhanced, detailed and open, it sounded antiseptic, sterile. Obviously my room has a lot to do with that. When I put back the rear Ha... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic I jumped the gun on the 8 week improvement when I purchased the SR Atmosphere XL4 to go with my 2 HFT sets and 2 Speaker HFT sets. It was like TC on steroids. However, my wife noticed congestion/hashy sound on choral parts on LPs recorded in the 5... | |
| New Tweak --- Its Fantastic David,. the first item Frank applied TC to were my SR blue fuses. What did you find objectionable? I haven't removed the fuses in six weeks, waiting for the 8 week surprise. Thanks, Stephen |
