| Question regarding subwoofers @musicfan2349 if you can easily locate your sub in your room then it is not integrated well, one way or another. Either crossed over too high, gain too high, or some combination of placement and the others. Some rooms are very tough to nail, and t... | |
| As much as I try, I just don't get it........ To what others have said... headphones make all the difference for starters, and yes, you can become educated over time listening to various things and learning what music sounds like. (I know that is an odd statement, but true) I am a drummer, I ... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... So, the SME is off to be rebuilt and rewired. I’m sure it will be weeks before I see it. I suppose, if it comes back and I still have issues, we can start this thread up again! Crossed fingers! | |
| Do you use a Subwoofer when listening to stereo? @soix I 100% agree with your response regarding subs. You mentioned Wilson.. a friend has XLF’s and a seriously dialed room. He recently added a Thor’s Hammer... Holy Sh!t Batman! It is amazing! Hardly a BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. A well integrated sub sys... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... Yes, I am looking at demo-ing an 810 perhaps next week. My local shop is a Simaudio dealer. But then, there are numerous options at that level... gotta get the TT sorted one way or another first. The “bike tires” are ok for now... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... Haha! Yeah... just might do that! | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... A development... today, the right channel cut, very briefly... twice. Pretty sure now I have a tone arm problem. The question is, send it to SME and have it rebuilt/serviced or start thinking about a new tonearm? | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... @MC... I did try the mass thing last night as suggested above, just to see. I added 2 grams of blue tac, no luck. I’m going to mess with it a bit more this weekend... maybe I get lucky. Otherwise, I’m going to just throw in towel and enjoy what I’... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... So, an update... yes, there is no doubt these particular albums are hot for sure. I “borrowed” a Rega P3 and plugged it into my system and played the offending albums/tunes... no extraneous pop. So, either the combo of cart/tone arm/whatever on my... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... Ok, so one more step in this troubleshooting... I just snagged a demo TT and I’m going to see what happens. A thought by my local guy suggested a short perhaps in the tone arm. Update at 11... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... @Raul it’s not the cart. I’ve now tried my Atlas, two Sumitomo MC’s (high output) and now, for kicks, I tried a demo Ortofon MM... all the same. My current PS is a Simaudio Moon 5.3LP, I’ve tried a 310, I’ve tried 3 Lehmann’s Cube, Cube SE and Dec... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... Generally every thing we are discussing would be in play... once again it is not cart specific, it isn’t “random” in the sense it just happens whenever. It is very specific on specific songs, and the same each time. Regardless of cart, phono stage... | |
| Odd problem with TT setup... No... tried that as well. | |
| 1st Album you Ever Owned? Foreigner Cold as Ice-45rpm wish I still had that one!First full album, Rush: Permanent Waves | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @tomic601... no doubt. That album very much captured that era. Interestingly a one off that has stood the test of time. @spiritofradio... I really need to get Hold Your Fire on vinyl. Not sure what I haven’t... time to go shopping. I also want to ... |
