| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) I have always been curious about Vandy speakers because they consistently get great reviews. All Models it seems. Therefore, is it worth buying any of the higher end models? Or just buy the 2Ce sig 3 and be done? Are the Treo TC or the Quat... | |

| Ultimate stereo nightmare Buddy, you need to first see if the dropped channel is from all sources. That means it’s most likely a cable between the amp and preamp, as someone else here has said. If not, I would pull everything apart and start over. When you put it back tog... | |
| Grounding a turntable and a tonearm But I am having a nightmare time with static and popping etc on the turntable and someone said I have not grounded the turntable. Try it a few ways, sounds like you cannot make it worse. If you bring it over to the RCAs/XLRs you could tie it t... | |
| XLR cables from preamp to powered bass amp in speaker? (Legacy Focus XD.) XLRs are largely immune To cable effects compared to single ended RCAs. Many like Canare adn Cardas, I use Mogami+Neutrik and roll my own. WireWorld and BlueJeans are often mentioned. But there are a lot of people that really spend up, If you ... | |
