| Voltage regulation My personal measurements taken at my house rarely see over voltage . What I have seen however, especially in the summertime are very low voltages, as low as 90 volts. I don't think it's simply the utility company rolling a brown out, because my fo... | |
| Phono Pre Kit Builders:Thoughts & Recommendations I have not heard either the Bugle or JD9, and therefore have been unable to compare either to a stock Grado PH1. I would be interested in in hearing from someone who has compared the PH1 to other preamps and can offer a detailed review. Please rem... | |
| Pre-amp opinions: SAE vs. Hafler Keep looking. First I had an SAE, it got noisy so I got a Hafler. The Hafler was musical yes, but nothing special. It was nicer than the SAE but not very reliable. If you looked under the hood, it would be apparent. It's a stepping stone in my opi... | |
| Anyone successful in dealing with Tinnitus? Avoid loud noise from here on is number one on my list. There's a vitamin (lipoflavanoid) that's supposed to help, I can't say it did anything for me. An ENT friend of mine read a paper suggesting a metabolic cause with regard to calcium ions movi... | |
| dedicated line: 10AWG stranded or 2 solid cores? Isn't "Greenfield Conduit" solid core wire already twisted in the metal jacket? Black-White-Green all insulated. | |
| Do Blue Dots applied to LP labels improve sound? Robob - Thank you. | |

| turning my system on during lightning storms My house took a near hit many years ago. I remember seeing the entire street light up and hearing the boom.. Not really sure where the bolt landed, but it caused much damage, and my system wasn't even on. The input section of my tuner was blown to... | |
| Wow and flutter Rega P7 and P9, anyone measure? A magnetic base/dial indicator can be used to check a turntable's platter for flatness. http://grizzly.com/products/G9849I saw a similar indicator at Sears just the other day | |
| Cable Elevators killed my bass How much metal is in your floor? Nails, cement, pipes? I personally poo-poo the whole thing, but would allow for the possibility that there could be some value if your cables were resting on a floor with lots of metal or another reactive material.... | |
| Rotel Turntable speed ElizabethI've read before not to use petroleum based lubricants with turntables, especially those with dust covers. Over time, the petroleum vapors degrade rubber mats, stylus suspensions and rubber belts causing them to dry out, become brittle an... | |
| Cartridge life really only 3 years?? About 8 years ago I called Grado and asked them (maybe it was "He") if I should replace my 25 year old Signature 8, wondering if it had "worn out" or gone flat. The response was no, the coils and magnets do not wear out or go flat. The stylus of c... | |
| Help me solve static electricity problem Thanks for the response. I'm not really sure how a capacitor might work in this situation is why I asked. I was wondering if there was a way to "grab" the static discharge absorbed by chassis and pass it to electrical ground before it got into the... | |
| Forte FP1 Thanks Shawn- I found it recently. Rich | |
| Help me solve static electricity problem Anyone with knowledge of Capacitors? What would happen if the chassis of each component were connected in starfish pattern through capacitors to one central ground point and then on through another capacitor to a common ground? Would the capacitor... |
