| Hardy cartridge Getting memories of old automatic turntables that automatically cued the tonearm to the beginning, automatically reset at the end, and allowed stacking to automatically feed next record. IIRC it was a GE Trimline record player. The amount of vinyl... | |
| Would Appreciate Advice Before I Buy @dprendergastI like your choices as well. While some Klipsch speakers may be bright for some, the RP-600M many positive reviews indicate otherwise - they would have revealed if it was bright. I’m pretty impressed on your well thought out choices t... | |
| Single driver vs traditional 3 way loudspeakers Not willing to give up frequency extremes for the various music genre I enjoy, so multiple drivers with seamless crossover integrations - sounds like a cohesive whole. | |
| how would you describe a system that is musical in nature Musical engages the heart, like getting lost in the beauty of the music.Analytical focuses on the details of individual parts of the music, more concerned with quality, accuracy, and the amount of musical information retrieved. | |

| Why are there no tube televisions anymore? while there seem to be far less intense discussions in the TV & video realm?Different hobby. Recreating pleasing sound/music is different from video interests. The are many different preferences for audio sonics and many methods to achieve t... | |
| How can a system be judged with highly processed, non acoustic music? Depends. If you listen only to non-acoustical music then yes, but one should test the system with music they prefer and maybe a good idea to test highs, mid, bass.
