| static Issues...anybody know why? Party pooper! | |
| Thiel Owners Whooops! You must have accidentally switched your auto-destruct button ON as I don’t see anybody back there, just a big puff of smoke 💨 | |
| Thiel Owners ProfI don’t want to turn this thread in to a cable debate.>>>>That’s pretty funny! 😬 | |
| Ceramic insulator cone under phono stage shocker! Fortunately, in the case of the BDR cones, it doesn’t matter which way the tips point. 😬 | |
| static Issues...anybody know why? The force 🔜 of Friction on the stylus in the groove is tangent to the direction toward the center of the record. So the force of friction on the stylus can be thrown out. 🗑 | |
| Thiel Owners profI’ve recently felt some despair concerning the amount of snake oil in our hobby and the industry, (when audiophiles wonder why we are a source of bemusement and mockery, we need look no further than the farcical high end cable racket). >>... | |
| static Issues...anybody know why? Next thing you know they’ll be saying static electric charge on CDs comes from a stylus and friction from paper sleeves. 😬 | |
| static Issues...anybody know why? Skating force has nothing to do with friction. It has to do with counter-action the centripetal force, not the force of friction. | |
| Ceramic insulator cone under phono stage shocker! Cones act like mechanical diodes, so you always want the points down so the excess energy will exit the system. Points up actually allows more seismic energy to be transmitted to the component 🔝 and less excess energy in the component to escape. | |
| Worst Rock Band Ever !!!! Groucho liked his cigar, too, but he took it out sometimes. | |
| Paean to a Fuse (and a tip of the hat to Chris Van Haus) Mystery solved! Wolfman and clearthink are the same person! 🤗I’m giving serious consideration to chucking it all and enrolling in audio engineer school. 😬 | |
| Worst Rock Band Ever !!!! Schubert has heard them all. 🤗 | |
| static Issues...anybody know why? Off the top of my head I’d say LAST is wrong. But maybe I’m not as gullible as some folks. Perhaps you didn’t see the comment in the OP,”When I use my Lyra Delos, no static at all.”Case closed. | |
| Miracles in Audio, by luck, by good choices,by design or by tweaking... I almost forgot, if anyone tries this experiment the idea is to pour the multi-color hard candies out of the box from a height 🔝 of several inches into the shallow bowl so they bounce around a little bit 🔝 🔝 🔝 before they settle down. | |
| static Issues...anybody know why? mijostynWow, guys, anybody here know how a Van de Graaff generator works?What do you do when you want to shock your little sister....hows about rub your feet on the carpet. I’ll leave it to you science nerds to look up why FRICTION causes static. ... |
