| The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp @ghdprentice Thanks! My power amp is going to be hard to match. When I upgraded my streamer/renderer to an increase of around $3,500.00, the difference was noticeable but not to the degree I’d anticipated. I’m stuck in my head with the same scenar... | |
| The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp @ghdprentice I was told by the ASR Amp Designer to use tape outs to connect to a headphone amp. The headphones themselves are low impedance and easy to drive. Probably similar in sound to the Focal Clear MG. There’s a headphone jack in the amp how... | |
| Looking for cable recommendations for sennheiser HD800s I was looking at getting a Lavri cable for a pair of driver type headphones that I had made for me but I was not sure that I could afford what I wanted. Anyway, I then contacted Travis at Corpes Cables and I bought a Gravedigger and am very impres... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? Hi Everyone! I’m really appreciative for the responses I’ve gotten here. I went to Harbor Freight today to buy a Ball Joint tool and looked at the casters they had there. I couldn’t get the ball joint on my car loose but building a dolly seems si... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? @bondmanp Funny, two nights ago I was dreaming about a piano mover bringing my speaker through the window. It may have been raining. But no, I’ll have to recruit a friend to help me bring them up the stairs on a hand truck. @elliottbnewcombjr I wo... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? @tweak1 Yes and carpeted no less. | |
| Speakers On Wheels? And thank you to all who posted. | |
| Speakers On Wheels? @soix I didn't think of the threaded gliders. I do have titanium disc gliders under my cones but it still seems like a lot of work. @elliottbnewcombjr I certainly appreciate your advice and thorough explanation. Tip over prevention was I somethin... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? @erik_squires and @jon_5912 Sorry I totally forgot to add that I have four cones threaded into the bottom of my Quads and they sit in titanium disks. They sound better this way than any other option. So I was thinking of a way I might be able to... | |
| Best sounding FM table radio ever made... Given the lack of local radio stations worth listening to, I would most likely choose this Ruark Audio R2 MK 4. https://www.whathifi.com/reviews/ruark-audio-r2-mk4 | |
| Using Tape Outputs @soix My current budget is practically non existent, as I'm again paying for new Quad ESL panels, looking for a new place to live and other inundating money matters. That being said, I'm entertaining the idea of eventually purchasing the Schiit Ly... | |
| Using Tape Outputs @fuzztone Thanks, I was looking at the Schiit headphone amps. I did fill out an information request which was all automated and I got a response saying; the better the headphone amp, the better the overall sound, even though I’m tapping into my am... | |
| Best sounding FM table radio ever made... Meant to mention, a tabletop radio that tunes into both am/fm and internet radio? | |
| Best sounding FM table radio ever made... I still use my mono, AM only, 1957 Zenith Trans-Oceanic shortwave radio. It doesn’t sound that great but I’ve always been a fan of short wave radio and baseball games. While Deutsche Welle and the BBC no longer broadcast to the Americas, many stat... | |
| How do I get a job as a headphone reviewer? With academia, I would write something related to my discipline and then follow the submission guidelines for whatever periodical I wanted to be published in. So I would think you could do a review and then contact Stereophile or whoever and tell ... |
