| I’m lost. Help me find my way So let me tell you what I did. I keep having panel issues with my Quad ESL's and was getting tired of only having one speaker while the other one went out for repairs. First off, for $300.00 I had my speaker tech make me a pair of headphones on hi... | |
| The Aurorus Audio Quasar @larryi Didn't know they were in Takoma Park but that's a ten hour drive from where I live so I won't be getting there any time soon. Would really love seeing a review of sorts online. I may just get to a point where I'll go ahead and put in an or... | |
| The Aurorus Audio Quasar @jacoblta I may be able to get to DC, we'll see. LTA HQ ??? | |
| The Aurorus Audio Quasar @wharfy I did see that however I believe a secure deposit is required which I don't have at the moment. Unfortunately I have repairs that are tying up all of my funds. | |
| just wanted to share my fix for making my speakers cat and grand kid proof! I've got a feral that lives in a different neighborhood than where I live. Every day I go over and feed her. She's in an area near the University of Cincinnati so the houses there are occupied by students who move out every year. And every year I ... | |
| What headphone and amplifier for classical enthusiast I'd take a look at these headphones from Aurorus Audio; https://www.aurorusaudio.com/Quasar%C2%AE-p619964083 | |
| Mono cartridge recommendations for Dual 1229Q If a good value for less than $1,000.00 appeals to you, Hana makes a mono cartridge; https://www.hanacartridges.com/products/hana-sl-mono-mk-ii More costly options to look into would be from EMT and Miyajima. | |
| Have you ever bought something you've never heard of? I bought my ASR power amp from the late Zed Hussain at Musical Sounds in Connecticut. I called him about an arcane tube preamp from some Slavic country and after talking with him for at least a half an hour, I purchased the amplifier. The ASR Emit... | |
| Network Switches The review on the Stack Audio Smooth LAN Regenerator used the Smooth LAN near the streamer and an Uptone Audio Ether Regen close to the modem. Seems like since the Smooth LAN is a re-clocker and passive filter, that would be enough. | |
| Mono Cartridge Stylus I'd favor listening to PDQ Bach. I saw the professor live at CCM many years ago. | |
| Thorens TD124 “Mk1”/Mk2 plinth Acrylic glass is non resonating. I would think that casting a resin sub platter in a polyurethane rubber mold would be relatively simple and would weigh a lot less than bronze. | |
| Mono Cartridge Stylus @dogberry Agreed, I wouldn't buy another mono cartridge unless I absolutely had to, just because I have a long list of other things that I think I need. But to be fair to DECCA, it looks like a nice cartridge and a line contact stylus is what I wa... | |
| Vinyl that is impossible to find Mono pressings on the Melodiya label. | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? I live near the University of Cincinnati and have a very good hifi. I used to attend recitals at the College Conservatory of Music but haven’t been for a couple of years. Occasionally I go to Music Hall but not often. Anyway, I’d love to host but ... | |
| Audio Grade Ethernet Cable @nmolnar Thank you for the link. I was looking at Blue Jeans and your right, they are very transparent about their product. I have to wonder what kind of mark up there is on some of these more expensive cables. |
