| Hot off the press...Technics SL 1300G The stock SL-1200G mat is 3 mm? Is that correct? I have one on the way and also have a SOTA reflex clamp I’ve had for years. | |
| Hot off the press...Technics SL 1300G A bit off topic…. I have a 1200G coming and wondered if there were a decent functioning autolift for it? | |
| Integrated Amps I just read where the phono doesn't mean much to you. PS Audio may still have that refurb Strata available then. | |
| Integrated Amps A lot of this is going to depend on what speakers you have and what you expect out of them. I suppose you've already seen Steve Gutenberg's review of the Billie which is very positive (he keeps going crazy over the knobs!) but does much address t... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? The KEF R7 Metas I am looking at have a switch to select for biwiring versus not. One would assume this would mean some crossover compatibility or at least negating the jumpers but I really don’t have any good way of knowing. I have two cable sets... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? The only thing a designer could do to facilitate his speakers being bewired would be to have a switch disabling internal jumpers. As far as a circuit diagram would be concerned that wouldn't make any difference, just a physical connectivity diffe... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? Sure, if you just had one set of terminals. Then you're basically giving yourself a fatter wire. No harm there if you already have those wires, but if you're just starting out just buy the bigger wire! If you have two sets of terminals, then yo... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? I've already got matching cables to do it so I might as well. Don't see how it would degrade anything and going to more expensive cabling at this point would likely be unnecessary exploration. 30 years ago I'd have been into comparing things (and... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? Good advice, while auditioning speakers at a dealer can be fun but nothing like doing it in your home. Dealer quality is not quite the same as in the past. I used to have a part ownership in an audio store back in the 80's. This is another way of... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? I dunno. My speaker cables are all silver but it seems like if you do that you're still depending on the wiring up to the output terminals on the amp (whatever that is). All I can figure is that my speaker cables are relatively thin compared to so... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? Paul McGowan up above goes into detail on the matter, says it doesn't matter with regard to biamping, then recommends biwiring! Holy smoke! I knew he liked wires. Meanwhile, the rather overworked video referenced on Matthew's post up above rea... | |
| Biwiring make any sense? thanks a bunch | |
| Spades vs. Banana plugs ?? My tarantulas prefer bananas | |
| Borresen X3 vs Harbeth 40.2 -- my impressions How big was that 110db cello? | |
| Is the idea of audiophile listening a dying concept as boomers die off? This is a really interesting discussion. I'm 76 now, and rebuilding my system. During a recent move I abandoned quite an inventory of equipment, a lot of which was self-constructed and/or purchased after years of upgrades and development. I had... |
