| Serious hum problem. Help Hi folks,Thanks for your help. I installed a ground rod outside and connected to the cable splitter with some copper wire. Nothin' doin'. I'm not sure I set up the ground rod correctly- can someone give me a run down on how grounding a system work... | |
| Tube amp coffee table book That's the one! Thanks very much, Matt. | |
| Tube amp coffee table book Hi,Sadly I don't remember the dealer's name. A friend and I stopped by on a whim and just took a quick look around. It's not "the tube amp book". Thanks though. | |
| Which cheese? Triangle and Tau. It's a Spanish goat cheese. Best thing in the world. If you EVER come upon it, by as much as you can. | |
| Tube rolling suggestions for Unison Unico Hi Tvad,By lifeless I mean one-dimensional, kind of flat, and "slow" sounding. I wouldn't say there's a lack of body, but perhaps we're describing the same characteristic in different words. The bass is also not as strong as with the stock Phillip... | |
| Tube rolling suggestions for Unison Unico Hi Arni,I left the Siemens pair in overnight, with the amp on, and listened the next day. So far, they've been very lifeless.Is there something to be set for letting tubes settle in a piece of equipment for extended periods before passing judgement? | |

| Stupid Bellari Q My 12ax7 phono pre doesn't light up at all. You're ok. | |

| Most Emotional Opera Melodies Woah. When was the compilation of Hilter's speeches made? There's nothing particularly fascist about your collection, don't worry :) | |
| Most Emotional Opera Melodies You might search by diva instead of by opera. All the greats have compilation albums that will feature some of the most impressive arias from the canon. -Maria Callas-Elizabeth Schwarzkopf-Marilyn Horne-Renee Fleming-Cecilia Bartoli-Countless othe... | |
| Best monitor under $1000 How about Silverline SR11s? (Used) | |
| RACHMANINOFF PIANO CONCERTO 2 Van Cliburn and Ashkenazy are the two standards. I like both of those more than Rachmaninoff's own recording (which I have on 78!)This is one of the pieces that I come back to over and over. The haunting melody that reoccurs in all the movements j... |
