Koetsu surprise I bought a Koetsu Urishi Black a few years ago. I mounted it on a Pioneer PL-71, I had bought, back in ’74. At first, it sound very tinny and I was very disappointed in it’s performance. I spoke with Koetsu and they informed me my tonearm, may not... | |
Please Critique my Setup and Recommend Upgrade(s) BTW-proper room treatment can turn a dog into a fox/really good sounding room. You can have the best components money can buy, but if your room and your set-up isn't good, you're chasing your tail. | |
Please Critique my Setup and Recommend Upgrade(s) As stated earlier, there's no substitute for good components, however, u have to work with what u can manage, at the time. I used to hold with the idea-good front end-good backend. Sounds good for other apps too😊 You have to have a good source,a... | |
Real Time Analizers Thanks for the info-I figured as much. I have a Numark 272 I'm going to get a 4 conductor plug for and use it. | |
Feedback through turntable Going on the advice of "How to Get Better Sound", I placed my TT platform on the side wall about 3 feet from my left speaker. Because my sound room is on the second floor and I have a suspended floor, I built a suspended platform, out from my wall... | |

Wilson Audio floor jack Yes-I noticed. No Problem, but thanks. I will probably remove the bracket type base. 1" high! Perfect. | |

Wilson Audio floor jack This is Handymann again. I didn't go in to too much detail. I actually saw an exact clone, of the jack used by Wilson for $199.00 and an audio enthusiast was saying he had bought one for his Maxx II's. I thought I would be able to find it agai... | |
Wilson Audio floor jack I found almost an exact replacement for the Wilson floor jack, about six months ago, but didn't write the brand or website down. Help | |
Pre-amp upgrade time? Everyone's preference is different. If u want really tight bass, but smooth highs and mids, try tubes in the front with a beefy SS power amp. Class A bias is best for that quick and tight bottom end. I have had a couple of Krell power amps and a... | |
High Current Outlet for Amps? I have two Krell 600 class "A" bias monoblocks, each plugged into a higher quality medical 20 amp outlets. The cost for the high current outlet is about $20 at any Lowes. I have seen $200 audiophile outlets advertised, but...that's another can o... | |
Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? I have some ocean front property for sale in Arizona. | |
Power Cable DIY - Please advise I would consider these fore mentioned improvements in sound associated with psychoacoustics. If you think you hear an improvement in the sound, that's all that matters. I remember back in the seventies, probably before a lot of you were even bor... | |
Power Cable DIY - Please advise Through the years, I have read all the posts concerning expensive power cords and such. We all want better sound, but I can't get my head around how an expensive power cord in series with house romex wiring and power amps and such can possibly imp... |
