Frequency response + or - 1 dB ??
What would be the point? Every room has a different frequency response.

Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue.
kenjitIf you are playing at a low volume then that will define the maximum loudness which will limit the dynamic range.Actually that’s incorrect. As I just said, dynamic range is independent of loudness. It’s a ratio. Thus, dynamic range per se do... 
How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years?
“I’ve come to understand from my 31 years of business experience that nasty bluster is most often a smokescreen.”>>>>>Appeal to Authority alert 🚨

Actually dynamic range can be high when fluctuations of amplitude are low. You were right the second time. It’s the difference in dB. The dynamic range is independent of loudness. 
Cheap Vibration Control Discovery
Cones are a little bit difficult to analyze in my opinion. They appear to act like mechanical diodes - they almost always sound better with the points down. It’s an easy experiment. Are they allowing residual vibration to exit DOWN out of the syst... 
hi anbody have a wood record mat ?
Wood per se would almost certainly make a very poor mat due it’s tendency to warp. What’s really required is to go to the root cause - the platter - and figure out how to damp it, no? We already know how to isolate it. The platter is analogous to ...

Hey, Sonic, you skipped the best part. “....like a lot of things ahead of their time - was that some newbies couldn’t heat it because they didn’t know what to listen for or they were all thumbs.”

Fan on Amp Unbeatable
I used the 5” battery powered O2Cool external fan for both Bada headphone amp and Woo Audio headphone amp. Just point the fan at the tubes and let er rip! Problem solved! 11 bucks on eBay, fast n free! 
hi anbody have a wood record mat ?
Actually most cork is a composite of crushed up bits of cork and some kind of glue/stabilizer. Gag me with a spoon. 🤮 Now, if the cork is pure natural cork, which it almost certainly isn’t, then I’d be on board. I use cork for a lot of damping tas...

The Tice Clock? Huh? The Tice Clock worked great. The only problem with the Tice Clock- like a lot of things ahead of their time - was that some newbies couldn’t heat it because they didn’t know what to listen for or they were all thumbs.You can't...

I must have gone farther in math than you did. No offense,
