| Thiel Owners Hey guys. I’ve been struggling with getting decent lower mids and mid bass with my 2.4s. It always seems tilted towards the highs, as if the bass control was set to -6 dbs. They are in a 16 x 21 room on the long wall about 3’ off the front wall to... | |

| VPI Cuing arm falling too fast I ended up running by a hobby store tonight and picking up 500,000 weight silicone and added it to the queuing arm, all as well! | |

I had AR email me the instructions. One thing I’d like some input on is there appears to be only o... | |
| What Sonically is the Difference between a $1,500 CD Player and a $10K-$25K One? I don’t really have any mega bucket equipment, I simply can’t afford it. But like anything in life it’s in the details and this is what you’re paying for. Generally. For me it’s akin to looking up at the night sky on a full moon night. An inexpe... | |

| Need advice in Audio Research Classic C-60Amp No biggie. I found many videos and write ups explaining safe ways to do it. It’s not too complicated. | |
| Need advice in Audio Research Classic C-60Amp If I wanted to discharge the current caps, is it simply done by leaving the music on, turning off the amp, and waiting for the music to fade out until there is zero sound? Then unplug the system. Or is there still residual voltage in the caps? |
