| Attention Horn Owners I have been using high end horn speakers (Cessaro) and SET 300B mono amps for quite a while. It wasn’t until I discovered the benefits of proper chassis and AC grounding, that I uncovered much more bass and a very “you are there” balance to the mu... | |

| The Sacred Ritual of Vinyl: A Return to Mindful Listening @unreceivedogma your comments are perhaps the most insightful I’ve read on this forum. Thanks for so eloquently capturing our cherished ritual. | |
| Gain level on a REL sub @highend64 I started with 1 REL T/9x and then went to a stereo pair. I don’t think you will necessarily get louder base, instead you get more of what you already hear. Try unplugging your REL and mane sure your main speakers are in the best locat... | |
| Room with glass windows as a walls. I have a similar issue. The solution was to apply Marigo Audio dots to the windows. These were developed by a PhD at Princeton, and they work! Call them, and they will help you decide which dots to use based on the size of the windows, and exac... | |

As you consider room treatments, read a few articles written by Art Noxon, owner of ASC (Acoustical Sciences Corpora... | |
| Puritan PSM156 Can someone explain how the "non-sacrificial gas surge protection" works on the Puritan PSM 156? If there is a surge, does it shut your components down. Then what happens? Also, what is the small black button located near the power cord inlet us... | |
| Shindo vs the world I have had several Shindo pieces in my system over the years, and still own the Giscours Western Electric preamp. Like some of us have found with the Duelund tinned copper cables, the Shindo components portray the real “tone” of the instrument... | |
| Burn in vs perception Anyone waiting for that magical 100 hour mark on their Duelund tinned copper wire, or the 150 hour mark on their Rhodium plated banana connectors surly believes that break in is imperative. | |
| Shocking Lampizator Service I have had 2 Lampizator DAC’s over the years. One of the original Level 4’s and now a Big 7. Never an issue with the DAC, just a faulty remote. Fred, I guess he’s the US dealer, literally sent me his remote to use until Poland could replace mine. ... | |

| Question: Sound Treatment behind the Listener? Since you are familiar with ASC tube traps, take a look at Art Noxon’s suggestions. I believe a couple tube traps with silver buttons facing the listener is what he would recommend behind your listening position. | |
