Fritz Carrera BE vs. Harbeth 30.1 Would you think that a McIntosh MA8900 is a good fit/ or too much for the Carrera BE speakers? I have a set of large towers running off of a separate MC312 and I'm considering a pair of book shelf stand mounts for a smaller room off of the main li... | |
Do you have ways to ease use of vinyl? I have a VPI Prime TT on a rack at chest ht. I also use a VPI outer ring to couple the record to the platter. I installed a TRU-lift to raise the arm but I attached a small strip of the soft side of a velcro on the top of the lifter that contacts ... | |

Keith Jarrett on the importance of audio sound quality +1 on quality of KJ ECM recordings. Top notch. Wonderful talent. | |

If you could bring back one great artist that has Tommy Bolin +1. | |

Anyone use auto lifters? Opinions Greetings. I too have used the Q-up with good results. The product works as advertised. I have since installed the more visually appealing Tru-Lift, which can be finicky, depending on the run out of the record, but lifts 98% of the time.There i... | |
speaker/stand, couple or isolate? Good day. I removed the spikes from my 90lb. towers and installed the Gaia ll. I was very pleased with the results. The particular song that struck me first was the "Doors LA Woman". There was a spacial quality that had not been there before. Che... | |
Isoacoustics Gaia ll footers plus carpet spikes I bought the Gaia ll for my towers and the hype is real! The imaging appeared - I have not heard the Doors LA woman like this before. |
