| CD Treatment Of course, the green pen can provide modest improvements. But improvements nevertheless. However, the problem is too great for only a green pen, gentle readers. Green absorbs the visible color red, it’s red’s complement. And red appears in the sca... | |
| Tweaks - An Honest Discussion hifiman5Of course all systems are different from one another but...the BDR boat sailed a l o n g time ago. Easily my biggest regret tweaking was all the $ I spent on an assortment of BDR #3 and #4 cones and pucks. I didn’t want to give up on them ... | |
| Turntable platforms Let’s talk about the Minus K for a second. Great performance, under 1.0 Hz in all of almost all directions of motion. I read you can drop a penny on the top plate of the Minus K and it will go into slow undulation, rocking and rolling and moving u... | |
| Your memory of Audio Marketing, esp. B.S. Damage Control! Damage Control! All men on deck! Battle stations! Everybody get from street! 😩 😩 😩 | |
| Are manufacturer AC cables good enough? No power cords at all is the bees knees! 🐝 I hopped off the grid four years ago and never looked back. 👀 | |
| IM Distortion, Speakers and the Death of Science cd318Marketing has long abandoned the use of scientific data when attempting consumers to part with their money. Today’s consumers often simply don’t have the time (or energy) to research purchases the way Steve Jobs once did when spending two wee... | |
| Turntable platforms That would certainly explain why my simple undamped springs sound better than Townshend Iso Pods. Any restraint of the micro motion of the springs, e.g., the rubber fabric or the force of air, interferes with the effectiveness of isolation. As I s... | |

| Turntable platforms The springs should not be damped. Damping hurts isolation effectiveness and it’s audible. You just place the springs under the component. Voila! 🤗 My springs provide vertical isolation, some rotational isolation. LIGO uses many types of isolation ... | |
| Turntable platforms One word. Springs! Springs for lightweight things, springs for heavy things. Spring is the thing! LIGO the project to observe gravity waves uses passive spring systems so trust me, they’re good enough for audiophiles, too. 🤗 With simple springs yo... | |
| Tweaks - An Honest Discussion Everything must be tweaked. You know, if you’re interested in high performance. If you’re not interested in high performance that’s OK too. There is room for all kinds in this hobby. 🤗“When Bob Gilliland made the first flight of the SR-71 on Decem... |
