| Which material sounds better for speakers construction? Wood, Ply or MDF? @ebm You better believe it they ring like a bell! No matter the bracing. You can't just knock on them as a test. You need a tone generator and vibration measuring tools. Take a look at Stereophile, every review of Magico omits this test, but all o... | |
| Which wires for Origin Live tonearm? van den Hul MCS 150M is the best silver wire from my own experience. | |

| SL1200GAE New Tonearm @chakster Because silver wire makes a significant improvement on small signal level phono. | |
| NAME SOME RARE AUDIO ITEMS THAT DID NOT TAKE OFF BUT SHOULD HAVE & WHY.HERE'S MY LIST @biketech60 What reel to reel recordings? Your personal garage ones? Or the commercial 4X or 8X fifth generation 7.5ips dupes? If it’s the later, then good vinyl blows them completely away. | |
