| Wilson Alexia 2 lacking some bass I have had Alexia 2s and now Alexia Vs. I agree with others here. The lack of bass is usually caused by the location in the room. One of the key factors is whether the port is reinforced by the wall behind the speakers. Move them closer to the wal... | |
| Ultrasonic Record Cleaner 40 v 80 v 120 kHz Had an Audiodesk rcm the year it came out. After about 100 records, the pump broke and it could not be sent back for repair. So I received a discount (not very much) on a new improved Audio Desk. When that pump broke, I was utterly disgusted hav... | |
| Tube or solid state phono stage? I have an all ARC system and have used solid state and tube phono stages with it. (Starting out, I thought perhaps solid state would be the way to go). The ARC phono stages provide a synergy with their amps and preamps that cannot be beat with any... | |
| Audio Research versus McIntosh tube amps: anyone experience or compare both? I agree with Docknow. The Audio Research Ref 150 was the best value in audio I have ever had. Great bass, sweet but detailed midrange and accurate highs. I recommend finding a used one. I currently have the Ref 160 Mk 2 mono amps which are 15% be... | |

I always enjoyed talking with him--although if we talked long enough he could usually convince me to spend more and get better. I was sorry to see his downtown store close but I did manage to purchase... | |
| Advice needed on upgrading tonearm for VPI SCOUTMASTER I preferred the standard wire sound to the reference wire which is Nordost. Don't assume that the reference wire is better just because it costs more. It is a different flavor. Do you have the metal arm or 3D printed? The 3D is a pretty big upgra... | |

| Are You a Swifty? OK. I'm 68 years old and had no opinion about Taylor (other than a feeling that too many teenage girls were fans and how good could that be?). I bought Ryan Adams album "1989" which was his version of her album of the same name. I thought it was e... | |
| Turntable Isolation Another vote for Ginko Cloud. | |
| Beatles CD box set The 2009 box set is excellent for the British versions (as the Beatles intended). If you grew up listening to the Capitol albums, the Capitol albums box sets vol 1 and 2 are the best (although they do not include A Hard Days Night, Yesterday and ... | |

| ATC SCM40 Great speakers! | |
| Audio Quest Niagara 5000 Do not use a power conditioner with ARC amps. They always sound better directly into the wall outlet. |
