| Tricky Room Geometry Question Thanks foll all the responses. I had never heard of Lyngdorf, and it looks very promising. I will keep my eye on used equipment to see if one of them turns up, and in the meantime play with the speaker placement. Shame the Lyngdorfs are so rare! | |
| Manley Stingray question :) Thanks, I am thinking about how to manage it. 9 month olds are pretty amazing in what they can get into, though, I can't imagine what happens when he learns to walk! Thanks for all the replies. | |
| best vocal harmonies in rock For punk, you could add the Misfits to the list. Astro Zombies is a terrific song. This is punk, keep in mind. | |
| VPI 16.5 Problem I found the following on Audio Asylum (thanks to Cjnolan), and followed it except for the loctite suggestion, as I didn't have any. I will do that later. It worked, and I am back in business. Thanks, all!--Remove the center cork piece. I use a ver... | |
| New to Classical Music - Album to try first?? I asked something remarkably similar a couple of weeks back, but I asked for ten pieces of music. Someone recommended a book you can get on Amazon (or anywhere else), called The NPR Guide to Building a Classical CD Collection. It lists 350 major w... | |

| VPI 16.5 Problem Thanks very much, that is encouraging. I tightened the plastic nut as much as I dared, so I will try Bikerduud's suggestion. Is there any trick to taking off the platter? Does it unscrew or just slide off?Thanks again. | |

| Very beginner question re: interconnects Thanks for all the information. I am using an MC cartridge (also just purchased, Lyra Dorian). | |
| Newbie Question: High Output v. Low Output Thanks very much. I am looking at the scout/scoutmaster budget levels, though have not settled on any particular brand or table. Maybe around $2K, but would be surprised to end up spending a bit more then that on the table and tonearm if I thought... | |
| Good $2k Used Speakers for 20wpc tube amp Thanks for all the ideas, much appreciated! You have given me a lot to read and think about. Always a trick, not being able to listen to most of the speakers in question. I am particularly intrigued by the Zu Druids. Regardless, I will let you kno... | |
| Good $2k Used Speakers for 20wpc tube amp Thanks for asking, I should have included: 12 feet wide by rougly 30 feet long, with a staircase that bisects the room. Cathedral cielings, about 12 feet high at highest point. Not ideally shaped, but what can you do? Pretty broad music tastes, mo... | |
| Beginner's questions re: amps, sorry a bit long To respond to one of the above, I ended up picking up a Manley Labs Stingray. So far, terrific--I am very happy with it. Bought it here on Audiogon, which was also a very positive experience.Now, of course, I want new speakers... |
