| Vibration Control Excellent information Nagel! Thanks. | |
| How cheap can you go and still be happy with the sound? I can & do enjoy good music on anything I hear it on. What’s really interesting is that the nuance & details I’ve come to notice & appreciate on the good systems I’ve had over the years get somehow imprinted in my brain & I seem to... | |
| Vibration Control As with so much in high end audio & often life, there’s so many differing opinions & Often no definitive science as to why. Added to this, we all hear & perceive things differently & have different tastes. This is sort of similar ... | |
| Vibration Control Glenn thus far is thee only one who has provided anything close to an actual explanation on the matter although I still have real doubts that in practice in this case, it actually has an effect. Of course what was described is exactly how phono ca... | |
| Vibration Control I’m not sure I follow all of that but so far, no one has explained how physical vibrational energy gets transformed into electrical energy in a solid state device w/ no moving parts. If this truly can happen, think about the effects it might h... | |
| Vibration Control Thus far, from the responses here, links provided & other information I found on the internet, I have found nothing that explains in any logical way why physical vibration affects solid state circuitry. I’m going to ask a few people I know w/... | |
| Vibration Control I know that most everything can matter in an even decent mid fi system & noise is a real enemy of high level resolution. That said, how does minimal physical vibration create noise in a solid state electronic circuit? Any EE’s out there who un... | |
| What was the most expensive record that you ever bought ? Mobile Fidelity “Original Master Recording “ ( whatever that means) of The Beatles White Album in about 2000 for $75 in mint condition. | |
| Your Ultimate Phono Preamp: Which One Would You Choose? I’ve never heard another good phono stage w/ my t vinyl set up so I can’t say it’s better or worse than anything else mentioned but I’ve really enjoyed my Art Audio Vinyl One for over 20 years & it’s still in production today. It’s tubed, ple... | |
| Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ? Great question! I’m very fortunate & have a nice, modest sized house (2400 sq ft) on a nice lake in MA w/ a good sounding large living room (20’ x 25’ & cathedral ceiling peaking at 12’) for my system. I couldn’t be much happier but that... | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? I’ve heard the Cornwalls a few different times & own the Volti Rivals. I prioritize dynamics that imo only highly sensitive speakers can offer effortlessly making it easier on both the amp & speakers & offer a “live music” sound. The... | |
| Dirty little secret of Pedigreed, decades old Speaker line - no one will address ATC has really changed their excellent done midrange driver much since the early 80’s & it’s still considered amongst the best . Why fool w/ excellence ? There’s examples of good & not great sounding versions of virtually every speaker... | |
| I don't get it...Exile on main Street-Blue Music is an art form. We all like different things which can change over time as well.. As most understand here as well, this also can apply to the sound systems that reproduce the music. | |
