| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? geoffkait:Listen and learn from your betters. | |
| Puzzled about reasons why there seems to be no shortage of used planner speakers They sound good at first but ultimately are unsatisfactory. | |
| Looking for an integrated tube amp under $2500 http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/pathos-classic-one-mk-ii-integrated-amplifier/Look at the Pathos Classic One hybrid. | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? LOL :) | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? There’s a lot of equivocation or sloppy use of language in audio marketing. For instance, look at Mapleshade’s loose description of its Tonearm Resonance Control Kit: "The physics are simple: bonding our 28g brass "mini Heavyhat" to the top of the... | |
| Decisions on standmounts: ATC, Dynaudio, ProAc, Sonus Faber Merlin TSM, if you can find a used pair. | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? geoffkait:So you're just misusing the word 'seismic' to include "other very low frequency vibration produced by other sources..."Nobody cares. | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? geoffkait:It appears we are in agreement that seismic frequencies "affect the tonearm and cartridge natural frequencies..."According to the OED, "seismic" means relating to earthquakes or other vibrations of the earth and its crust. | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? geoffkait:If tonearms and cartridges are engineered to have resonant frequencies circa 10-12 Hz, then it's absolutely illogical to conclude that isolating the turntable from seismic frequencies will reduce vibration of the tonearm and cartridge. W... | |
| 2019 300B tubes that are worth the money? I'm skeptical about rebirth of Western Electric tubes. There are Chinese knock-offs that may show up relabeled as Made in U.S.A.Relabeling tubes is a time-honored practice. | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? Isolating components from vibrations is an audio fetish IMHO that is exploited by charlatans marketing to the worst of the nervosa syndrome.Each object has a resonant frequency, and it's going to resonate in the presence of that frequency, and the... | |
| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? Sound is nothing but vibration within the bandwidth of the ear. So, you want materials that don't resonate at those frequencies. | |
| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? It's best to build your system around highly sensitive speakers that don't require lots of wattage. | |
| Forking from the cables thread to a discussion of whether hi-res is audible..... You could make the case that hearing is more acute than sight. Before the discovery of fire, humans would rely on hearing to keep them safe at night. Good hearing would have been an evolutionary advantage. | |
| heeeelp please audio reserch 5SE - resistor blew up Did you turn off the power before installing the 6550? |
