| Transferring large folders of flac files I was just going to recommend Terracopy! The checksum feature is key. | |
| Audiosilente idler wheel versus Artisan Fidelity idler wheel for a Garraed 401 Lew, idler wheel size does not impact speed. The ratio of pulley to platter is all that matters. The speed of the idler changes but the other two stay the same.That is correct. You need to also think about the relationship between the motor pulle... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling I have just been made aware of this vendor for the Mil-spec wire (NOT Cryo’d) for the power cables - their prices seem pretty good 12 AWG, Mil-Spec Wire - Eastern Voltage Research I wonder how this stuff would work for some star-quad speaker ca... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning DO NOT USE THE HEAT!! It takes very little heat to warp a record. As the vinyl expands it has no where to go but up and down permanently stretching the PVC into a roller coaster. Otherwise have fun!What? Heat is fine. I regularly use 90F and ... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Chris at VH Audio marks the "pull end" of his wire with tape when he cuts a length off. Do you guys usually build your cables with the pull end at the source end of your ICs or do you put it at the other end? Has anyone ever even tested this? C... | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling If anyone orders anything from Parts Connexion in Canada, make sure you select something other than USPS. I placed two orders there for some Absolute Harmony RCAs. The first one shipped USPS and I still don't have it 18 days later. A few days l... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Air Filter I see. You could always look in the tube at the outlet of the filter for evidence of moisture, but I have never seen any moisture anywhere in my system. I don't think it's an issue unless you're using high pressure. Even if trace amounts of moi... | |
| Distilled water rinse after ultrasonic cleaning My ultrasonic fluid contains some things other than water, so I definitely want to get all that stuff off. After the US cleaning, I give each record a spin on my Keith Monks-style vacuum machine and do a three part rinse with MFSL Wash, MFSL rins... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Air Filter There's no reason at all to see inside the filter. It won't do anything for you. A loss of pressure will indicate that it's time to change the filter. If you don't have a gauge after the filter, you really should think about getting one. If yo... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Air Filter Motor Guard D-12-2 is what I use. They're much more substantial than the factory filter as they remove moisture, too. The thread is 1/4" npt, so you'll just need to get some barbs from a hardware store to adapt it to your tubing.https://www.am... | |
| New silversmith fidelium cable Has anyone compared these to Goertz cables? They're essentially the same thing. | |
| DAC's Made in the USA Oops, I just noticed that you need an optical input a well as SPDIF. I'm not sure if Gary can add one to his Border Patrol DAC or not. | |

| Audiophile Grade RCA Input Suggestions? I would probably just install normal style RCAs and wire them to the PCB. I have been eying these up:https://www.partsconnexion.com/KLEI-86828.html | |
| Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling Yes the cotton is smart. 7mm outer diameter works good. 5mm internal diameter. Great, thank you. I'll grab a bunch of extra in case I have to build it up as it will depend on what the ID of my return coil is. |
