| Burning CDs of downloaded music @sealegs you need to convert it to .wav first. | |
| Duplicate Serial Numbers I'd be worried about a manufacturer who can't keep serial numbers straight. How are they with matching drivers or crossover components? Can't be good. | |
| Dc voltage sent to my speakers If a preamp is outputting a little DC, is it always because of faulty output coupling caps? Should those caps always be expected to block all DC? I had one tube preamp that would trip the protection circuit of one of my amplifiers due to DC leak... | |
| Aurender Conductor V4 issues Aurender is extremely glitchy, period. There's an Aurender Facebook group and 50% or more of the posts are complaints. I hope they figure out their software, because if they don't, it will sink the company. I recently had an issue with my stre... | |
| What Holiday Gifts did you ask for or Give to Yourself? I bought a Bob's Devices SUT a few weeks ago. It wasn't a Christmas present, but now that I have about 12 hours on it, it's proving to be a very nice gift. Everything that I play sounds better than ever. | |
| When to choice XLR over RCA ICs. Thanks @atmasphere. I already have 2549 single ended ICs at a few location in my system, so converting them to balanced is what I’ll do. | |
| When to choice XLR over RCA ICs. @ketchup Mogami Neglex is the gold standard of high quality balanced cables in the studio. They employ oxygen free copper and polyethylene dielectrics (the only thing better perforamance is Teflon, but it does not prevent oxidation of the conduct... | |

Good luck. --Jerry Well, the OP didn't say what condition the platter is in, so it's hard to know what it needs. What you recommended is on point if t... | |
| Polishing a Micro Seiki RT 3000G Gunmetal platter @carlsbad2 is right on. Stopping at 3k will probably give it a very nice finish, but if you want it even shinier, I'd end with a metal polish. | |
| Considering selling my restored Garrard 301 The motors are all the same, but there are different pulleys for 50Hz and 60Hz. | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey Excellent thread! I just found this educational video on hockey pucks and figured I'd post it 😅 | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners With the stylus down, how is everyone's I-beam angled? Is it perfectly horizontal or a little down at the counterweight end? I have the long I-beam and the counterweight end is currently a little lower than the spindle end, but I really don't se... | |
| Considering selling my restored Garrard 301 @famoej I'm simply not a woodworker and my plinth lacks the correctness required to make a 301 sing. It's big and heavy but that does not make it right. What is your plinth lacking that another would have? I keep hearing that some plinths a... | |
| Commercial air travel with a speaker I can't believe this hasn't been asked yet, but what kind of hifi speaker is 83 pounds and is not part of a stereo pair? |
