| Motorized volume speed adjustment Thanks, I'll open it up again and see what I can find. If I make a modification that works, I'll post it. | |
| VGA cable length Cool. Thanks for the quick response. | |
| Infinity Prelude MTS I've been living with MTS speakers for about 2 1/2 years now and I love them. It took a while to find components that I could afford that were capable of matching their performance but once I did and got everything tweaked to my satisfaction, I fo... | |
| Clocking your CD player/transport I modded a Marantz SE67 with a XA3 by Guido Tent. It's almost the best digital source I've heard. The only thing that beat it was a dbx Quantum mastering processor in bypass mode used as a de-jitterer. (I haven't heard any of the ultra expensive t... | |
| Favourite Guitar CDs Aerial Boundaries by Michael Hedges. | |
| Best Electronic Albums of the 90s.... Try Goldfrappe's "Felt Mountain" cd. It's very 60's in a cool electronic way. | |
| The Biggest Disappointments in Rock and Roll The corporatization of FM radio is my biggest disappointment in rock n roll. I think it's made finding new good stuff almost impossible and in turn has affected rock by encouraging homogeneity. | |
| Why are Infinities the Rodney Dangerfields of spe I think the mass market approach is definitely a double edged sword for Infinity. On one hand, it allows a good source of revenue for funding R&D but on the other hand, it creates a perception that their entire line is geared for the masses. H... | |
| Why aren't all CDs created equally? Zaikesman, I agree with your message and I don't mean to come off as an audiophile who can't be happy with anything but the best quality sound out there. But I think the common denominator of complaints against the quality of many recordings is th... | |
| Why aren't all CDs created equally? I have a system that I would consider "ruthlessly revealing". My previous system is now our living room system is much less so although still pretty hi fi. It never called attention to how bad some recordings can sound but it also never created th... | |
| Digitally remastered vinyl? I agree with Lugnut. There are excellent examples of both analog and digital recording. There are also less than stellar examples of either as well. I guess I'll have to get a vinyl preamp and break out my LPs again to see what the fuss is about. ... | |
| Depth vs. Cable Type Thanks for the input. I'll try removing the caps. The reason they're there is because I have some self powered subs and the low frequency content driving and towers is wasting power and I'm also a little worried that it could damage the mid-bass d... | |
| Real Stinkers Zooropa by U2. I love U2 but I sure wish they'd have kept anything from that album off of the Zoo TV concert video. I saw the pre-Zooropa version of Zoo TV in Anaheim and it was one of the best concerts ever. | |
| What is the best CDP to be used as a Transport? If you're looking for bang for the buck and don't mind getting your hands dirty, try a Marantz CD67SE with an XO3 reclocking circuit. On it's own, the Marantz isn't a great transport but with the XO3 reclocker, the jitter almost completely disappe... | |
| Another Horrific Confession: Not sure but I think Bose makes noise cancellation headphones for the military (where it's really needed). To me, that means they must be pretty darn good. |
