| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat Badwisdom, I am also referring to ripping. I know, it disobeys the laws of science. | |
| The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat Didn't the bits is bits theory die a gruesome death about 20 years ago? | |
| Cryo Treating Silver Cables? One idea is remove the plate, it might make you a little more "open minded". Worth a shot. :-) | |
| Cryo Treating Silver Cables? Acme cryo'd silver fuse holders and cryo'd silver plated wall outlets have been around for a very long time. No mystery here. | |
| Tweaks such as demagnetizers ionizers for lp's The Radio Shack bulk tape eraser works well. It was discontinued some years ago but is available at very good prices on Ebay. For LPs and CDs and interconnects. | |
| Vibraplane: Should it be loaded close to limit? The vibraplane is preloaded with 100 lb, so add that to the mass of the component when calculating system resonant frequency, which is the square root of the system spring rate/total mass. | |
| Is the Shindo Aurieges L preamp phase inverting? Half the software out there is phase inverted anyway, so I wouldn't worry about it too much. | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? As I predicted, the "LP gurus" had no idea what you were talking about. "If I were forced to make a prediction I would have guessed the opposite. Go figure." Oh, it figures. :-) | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? "While I was there I inquired about cryo-treatment of records with a local Focal rep and a highly respected amplifier engineer/designer that was there. The response was in the range of head scratching/shaking. Neither seemed to be aware of the con... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? Of course I'm not saying that at all. I'm saying that an experienced listener, one who knows what he's listening to, should be able to distinguish sound that is better, worse or the same. How else would he progress in this hobby? A sufficiently ad... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? "Mceljo said: "Iso - Can you cryo them or should I just put them in the fridge when they arrive? What's the break in period on them?"That's actually an excellent question since cryo'd materials require about a week or more to recover from thermal ... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? It would probably be more instructive to perform the home freezer experiment for oneself than for me to go into the details of what I experienced. After all, my evidence in these matters, even if I were to go into excrutiating detail, would be ane... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? "I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, but now that you've essentially said that CDs and records that are shipping in the northern states in the winter will sound better than those shipped in the summer. "Hmmm, I didn't say that but i... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? "By the way, an alternative to sending audio items like LPs to a cryo lab is freezing them overnight in the home freezer, then let them thaw out slowly in the morning.""Really? You're really going to say that a home freezer is similar to a cryo pr... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? I don't think anyone is saying that cryo is a universal process that makes everything better. However, there are by now many audio companies, Meitner, Walker, Jena Labs, Purist Audio, to name a few, who have been using cryo processing for their pr... |
