| Audio Racks, Just How beneficial? looking for guidance in upgrading @benanders 😁 Along with changes in my rack came fifty years of upgrades. So, it probably would have sounded better even if I kept the cinder blocks. | |
| if you had this system, what would you do to make it sound the best you can @2psyop +1 I must agree. Upgrading your speakers would be the way to go. You can get lots more out of the rest of your system. If you can swing over $5K you can get into a new class of speakers. If you really like the Mac sound, B&W is a com... | |
| Wool Blankets as Room treatment OP, Beautiful. I hesitate to say this… but hanging it horizontally would have had it cover more of the critical area behind the speakers. | |
| Wool Blankets as Room treatment @soix 😊👍 Good one. | |
| Audio Racks, Just How beneficial? looking for guidance in upgrading @emergingsoul For me wood boards on cinder blocks … in 1970. My system sounds better now. | |
| Help with XLR ICs. The rule of thumb with Mogami is that they are competitive with audio replay cables at the same price level. They do not provide better sound for the money. So, they are not a secret “better sounding” cable for high end audio. | |

| Component contributions to “sound stage” @blisshifi Good post. | |
| Stylus stuck in groove. I’m adding a virtual system to my profile of my home system. It is surprisingly good sounding. | |
| Audio Racks, Just How beneficial? looking for guidance in upgrading @mitch2 Very pretty. | |
| Turntable prices. Is my mind going? If I had a price no object system I would definitely have a listen to it. Just because you don’t have the money doesn’t mean someone who does is a fool. From their point of view perhaps you are the fool living in ignorance and poverty. | |
| Help with XLR ICs. I am a big fan of Transparent speaker cables and interconnects with Audio Research. It is a classic synergistic match. The best you can afford. Try before you buy. | |
| Found a Milty Zerostat alternative This is discussion is very curious. It seems very unlike the “cables don’t matter” where are religious deniers chime in to protest a well documented and known effect. The folks that have experienced Zerostat being effective and not seem to be dee... |
