Audio Rack Construction Wow, tons of info from the link provided by Jdoris. The original thread was back in 2006, and the raw materials have gone up nicely since then. That still won't stop me.Lots of stuff to go through and I'm taking off for vacation. Will be back next... | |
Audio Rack Construction BR3098 - Thanks, I'm just copying the threaded rod concept from Salemander and will be using heavier maple shelves and as recommended, shot inside the external tubing around the rod. The end result should be a lot heavier and more rigid. I'm not p... | |
Audio Rack Construction Thanks guys for the source information and excellent advice. Does anyone have an idea on how to finish off the ends of the rods for the top shelf? I've seen round nuts and end caps on manufactured racks but am having problems locating. | |
Audio Rack Construction Well, there you have it nice and simple.I know that brass is a coveted material, but it appears that Slipknot is using steel but that's hard to see. Brass gets expensive especially with all those nuts and bolts. I was thinking about using 5/8" ste... | |
Audio Rack Construction Thanks Rushton, I will take a look and get back. | |
Audio Rack Construction I like the the ideas about filling the tubing but there seems to be different thoughts about isolating the shelves from the threaded rod. Rigid is very important but most of the better rack manufacturers use some sort of isolation between the shel... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem You were right on Jaspert, I hit the 10 hour point or something like that and wow...just like that I've got a brand new killer system. Cheers | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem Jaspert is already ahead of me because I finally got my power amp back from repair...it took twelve weeks. I'm debating whether or not to blast the manufacturer over the net waves.I'm coming up on ten hours but noticed great improvement after a fe... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem With the help from others, I have resolved the so-called noise problem in my Raven One. Actually, this was not the Raven's problem at all.After putting an MDF shelf under my existing slate shelf that the Raven sits on, the motor is dead quiet...no... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem Thanks for your input Dg_bond. I feel that this may be the case as well with one exception. I replaced the Target screws with brass audio points that are inverted so same deal...they point up.I'm still using the Target screws but as the studs for ... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem Thank you all for being so forthright...this really helps.What's important is how the damn thing sounds, and the motor noise is barely audible at this point. I've been nit-picking, worrying, prodding, and I haven't even heard the table with my new... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem Thanks everyone! As I mentioned, I'm working with Jeff at High Water Sound on this matter. When I put the table on my wood floor there is no motor noise, so the motor is dead quiet. Jeff thinks it's the materials composition of my surface and setu... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem Update - I followed Lewm's lead (question) and moved the TT to my wood floor. "No noise." | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem You have good points. The pulley's set screw is tight. What makes real sense is to move the table to another platform to see if there's noise.Raven One owners, when you put your ear right up to the face of the Motor Control can you hear the tranfo... | |
Raven One Motor Noise Problem Those are good words of wisdom Jaybo, and I'm sorry to hear of your experience. I'm currently going through a similar situation with another manufacturer but more on that later.I'm working with the importer who is also the sole dealer in the U.S.,... |
