| Speaker phase and timing the most obvious cause is your speakers are wired out of phase. make sure positive is to positive and negative is to negative at the speaker and amp end. | |
| What are we listening for during break in? Do electrons cause friction as they flow through cable? Even with "skin effect" they flow close to surface not on it. This brings me to the next cable myth- "directionality." | |
| What are we listening for during break in? Point one- I have long since abandoned A/B testing thanks to the late great Harvey Rosenberg. I tend to know what I want when I hear it. I keep it till I tire of it,it wears out or becomes obsolete.I assume everyone has a reference that is the sou... | |
| What are we listening for during break in? Some have suggested it is the listener who is becoming adjusted to the new sound and not the cable being broken in.Start listening right away. Then the new sound will replace the old sound as your standard. | |
| What are we listening for during break in? "... a man goes to the doctor and says doc it hurts when I do that..."don't listen during break in!Since I don't believe cables require break in...unless you're using them as a jump rope this is difficult for me. hopefully you're looking for a sou... | |
| Amp recommendation for Maggies 1.6Q I love maggies.( I still hace a thirty year old pair of mg-1 under my bed)I love sixty watt tube amps. I have never owned a high powered ss amp. try the cj prem. 11a. | |
| I hate stereo stores But found the next best thing I second your opinion of Deja Vu! If only they had some demo units for Aesthetix and Atma-sphere! They only have the Rhea on display. | |
| MC transformers - what do they sound like? I e-mailed my address off line | |

I would recommend this for any small room. Perfect for the collge student. It will rock a large room. It's in my bedroom. I ... | |
| Sumiko Celebration Arming Did not mean to insult just cross refrencing to Raul's comments which have been extensive. it was a suggestion as to maybe why no one had commented. | |
| Sumiko Celebration Arming I think Raul has said all that needs to be said on the clebration /sme combination. | |
| How to set SRA after determining true vertical? I am thinking the cutter head acts more like a plow vibrating fom side to side. thus the record rotates under the cutting head as the head plows ahead vibrating either to the right or left, thus there is no downward cuttiing motion. that is why I ... | |
| How to set SRA after determining true vertical? cutting in one plane would dig a hole. to make a 45 degree grooved trench you have to move in two planes n'est pas? maybe I stated it wrong. | |
| How to set SRA after determining true vertical? Nsgarch- you make a convincing argument. your shovel and chisel anology could be true but they move in only one plane. the cutting lathe moves in two planes. I believe your analogy would be true if the cutting head were like a jackhammer titlted f... | |
| How to set SRA after determining true vertical? Zargon-the thrust of my argument is that SRA should be used to make the stylus perpindicular to the groove or record surface not necessarily mimmicking the stylus cutting head. If I get you agree to that,I'm satisfied. How you get there is not th... |
