RTR electrstatic speakers Didn't Wilson use the RTR tweeter early on? | |
Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? I use a Tube Research Labs modified Sony SCD 595 player (I bought mine at Best Buy for $150) plus the TRL mod at $550 plus shipping. For more info, do a search over at Hi Rez Asylum, there has been much discussion about TRL mods over there. | |
Sonic Impact T-Amp giant killer? I bought one at Target about 8 to 10 months ago, after seeing the rave over at Audio Asylum.They're inexpensive, I'll give them that. Are they a giant killer? Only if your giant is small. I saw a suggestion at Amp Asylum to use it as a wireless pa... | |
How Good is Walker Extreme SST Contact Enhancer That may very well be, Rushton. I'm just sharing what one amp manufacturer warned me about. It seems that he has had several pairs of amps and pre-amps returned lately for repairs because silver conductive paste leaked down and shorted between the... | |
How Good is Walker Extreme SST Contact Enhancer While I'm not sure which silver contact enhancer caused the problem, this is a must read for anyone considering using it on their tube sockets. http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/tweaks/messages/113087.htmlFollow the posts all the way down. It's jus... | |
Favorite CD treatments? Shine Ola. There is a thread that I'm going to attempt to direct you to, hopefully this works ...http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ddgtl&1096407732&read&keyw&zzshine=ola | |
DIY stylus-cleaning magic long Hi Doug, that's why I use LP#9 as a final rinse, to make sure that no residue is left behind. I assume that my 2 step system works better than either one alone, but have not tried high powered microscope inspection (yet) to varify. | |
DIY stylus-cleaning magic long Ex-soviet? Nope, not me Doug. I have since registured and have tried your dry cleaner (works great), but I still follow up with LP#9 to rinse away any residue that the Magic eraser might leave behind. Why not? I'm still have an almost new bottle a... | |
Anyone tried Audience Auric Illuminator on CD's? Hi Larry,Great. One very important question, where does one buy Audiotop? I don't see them advertised anywhere. Do you buy direct? Do you have a contact number? I'll also suggest, since you are doing comparisons on CDR's that you add one CDR to yo... | |
Anyone tried Audience Auric Illuminator on CD's? Hi Larry,Maybe I should try some Audiotop and report back my Shine Ola vs Audiotop conclusions? Where do you buy it?Best wishes,Jack | |
Anyone tried Audience Auric Illuminator on CD's? Hi Larry,You can buy RRL products at Acoustic Sounds, Classic Records, Elusive Disc, Music Direct, Red Trumpet, and Galen Carol Audio to name a few. (These are all places I've bought RRL record cleaner from in the past). I believe that Red Trumpet... | |
CD Tweaks and Longterm Damage Hello Shuang,I haven't noticed one bit of difference, nor did my friend who conducted the software tests, between 2 sprays or 5 sprays of Shine Ola. I don't know why they recommend so many sprays, it is not needed. Regarding re-application, I neve... | |
Anybody using a DVD scaler? Yes, I use one although I can't be of much help explaining what they do and how they do it, like many others here can. They do improve picture resolution and are worth the money, IMHO. I recently sent mine off to Tube Research Lab for mods ($550) ... | |
Anyone tried Audience Auric Illuminator on CD's? We all seem to use different products. I've been using Record Research Lab "Shine Ola" on my CD's, DVD's and SACD's for a few years with great results. I haven't tried the new, latest version of AI and most likely won't. | |
CDP at $1200- 2000 for this system I'd do a 595 Sony SACD/CD player for $130 at Best Buy and send it to Tube Research Labs for $550 plus shipping both ways. For less than $800 you'll have a player that will surprise you. |
