| Hana ML and Korf head shell @chakster … like a moron, I forgot to mention I have a lathe… so that instagram page is perfect.Worn out in suspension? Or worn out in stylus?(It has not been used at all in the last 5 years or so… for a variety of reasons… none good.)@tomic601 wh... | |
| Hana ML and Korf head shell Thanks @tomic601 Thanks @chakster the dynamic compliance is listed at: 10 x 10(-6) cm/dyne (100Hz). The Korf choose is mainly because it looks to be well damped, so I am hoping that the sibilance can be tamed.@three_easy_payments: Does that mean I... | |
| A turntable that plays all types of music well Mine likes polka. So we compromise. At the end of each night I leave a polka LP on the platter to keep the dust off.I leave my polka record on mainly to prevent theft. | |
| Klipsch Forte ii too bright, or is it my room ? There are no signature blocks on this forum?If there was, it would say…People describe me, as well as my speaker choice… as, “Not too bright.” | |
| Best Way To Maximize Preamp Tube Life? Best way to extend tube life is probably going to SS…I should replace those 20 year old tubes in the preamp. But it sounds pretty good the way it is. | |
| A turntable that plays all types of music well Weirdly, my Linn/Akito rig will not play polka...just won’t...Funny, my SOTA is able to.It sounded just like when we heard it live.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scjeyiDbaoQBut I suppose a SOTA plays MinneSOTA music as well as world music? | |
| Upgrade my CD player or futile effort? Cheap enough to try a DACS…https://www.topping.audio/productinfo/645180.html | |
| Are all amps being built wrong? Is a phono cartridge a current device or a voltage device?And what about a DAC? | |
| Townshend Springs under Speakers Technically it was the inconsistent unbelievable story-telling that was shown to be inconsistent and unbelievable. I am on record over and over again always believing anyone who says they can’t hear. Never argue with someone telling you they can’t... | |
| Klipsch Forte ii too bright, or is it my room ? @vegasears, why are the Spica not cutting ?how does the Klipsch and them compare? | |
| Townshend Springs under Speakers 09-15-2021 7:00amYou don’t understand Well if you or anyone else does, I’m all ears. What’s wrong with saying I’ve seen no reason how it could work, and asking how it could work?"This gets so tiresome."Why is wondering how something does, or could... | |
| Klipsch Forte ii too bright, or is it my room ? Also, how would you quantify which fix worked? First fix room, then speaker/rack location, then electronics.If the room needs to be done anyhow then doing it 1st makes sense.But if the speakers are new, then I would return them quickly.While speak... | |
| Are all amps being built wrong? PS, db Volts is calculated this way:db = 20 x log( V original / Voltage now) So doubling the amplifier voltage = 6 dB louder in both voltage and sound pressure level (SPL) so long as everything is not over driven. Technically dB(V) is 10log(V)Sinc... | |
| If Power Cords Don't Matter... This guy… Arctic Death misspelled….probably drunk posting from what I can tell. Different folks different ways to behave while intoxicated. You guys should not give them much credit. Not worth your time. Let them be. I like the sarcastic tone to i... | |
| Klipsch Forte ii too bright, or is it my room ? Wow thanks everyone!! Out of 20 comments it looks like the large amount of glass needs curtains, that is inexpensive & easy, I'll do that & the dynamat first, if It's still too bright a tube amp / new pair of speakers will be in the distan... |
