| Gotham Quadratic Diffusers I’ll just have to suck it up. That’s what shipping costs are up here in Alaska. When I shipped my Aesthetic I/O to get upgraded my shipping cost was a little over $1200.00, for both ways. Outrageous. If I want something that’s what it costs. ‘Jo... | |
| Gotham Quadratic Diffusers Greetings, I’m glad you had positive results with the Quad Diffuser’s. I have wanted a pair for many years. I ordered a pair from GIK a few months ago. I was hesitant about shipping costs. I placed my order and it showed that shipping cost was... | |
| 2 subs connected to a 2 channel amp? Greetings Maybe an external crossover would solve your problem? As mentioned above the Dspesker 8033 is a great little unit for setting up subwoofers. Joe Nies | |

| Any Oracle Delphi MK1 expert here? Motor problems... Hello Edwin, I payed around $400.00 for my PS but that was 40 years ago. I believe Oracle no longer uses dc motors.

| Uneven sound comiing from my B&W DM630s Yes old dirty worn out albums can be a problem. Please try and clean your albums. Look at your cartridge to see if you have gunk on the needle. Is the imbalance just on your old dirty albums? I’m a fanatic about cleaning my albums. I have albums ... | |
| Uneven sound comiing from my B&W DM630s Greetings Sounds like you have more than one problem. When you hooked up your CD player did you use the cable that is coming from your TT or did you use a different cable ? If you used the cable from your TT then one of your issues is the TT. Do... | |
| Does the length of the Cable matter? Since your TT has a phono preamp built in, there is no problem going with a 15 foot cable. It’s a line level output from the phono preamp to your preamp line level input. If cable was coming from TT (no phono preamp built in) to your preamp phono... | |
| Does the length of the Cable matter? Yes it matters. Do to the low output of the TT. Phono cables are constructed differently than standard interconnects. The shorter the better. 1.5 meter length would be the max length to use and that length would be based on a very high quality cab... |
