| Bonham’s Squeaky Drum Pedal @baclagg Yeah, the noise is certainly audible. It sounds like they used some processing to dull the sound. I'm listening to a remaster. | |
| Bonham’s Squeaky Drum Pedal Some of the best songs ever recorded have tone issues, straight up mistakes, flubs etc. One of the issues with todays music is it is too “clean”. Quantized to the click, perfect pitch correction etc. The human element has been all but removed. Th... | |
| LP Vinyl: Quality, Pressing, Label, Weight, Where to Buy ??? When the vinyl resurgence started and new vinyl was being pressed, results were not as good as original pressings. There was a learning curve and growing pains for the techs in the new pressing plants, but now new vinyl is worth buying. However, I... | |
| Soundstage depth how to improve? Shootout Agree that it's speaker and amp dependent, but also the recording. Having said that, room treatments should be considered, they will affect imaging. | |
| LP Vinyl: Quality, Pressing, Label, Weight, Where to Buy ??? For used records try discogs.com. I've received some NM in very good quality, some average. Always assume the seller is exaggerating about the condition, look for mint and near mint. Always message seller before a sale to confirm the record is the... | |
| Bonham’s Squeaky Drum Pedal @baclagg I like it as well. Lots of amp buzz in recordings from that era. All kinds of studio sounds in Hendrix albums. I listen to Floyd often and never heard the amp stand, I’ll call it up on Qobuz. | |
| Bonham’s Squeaky Drum Pedal I can hear it at moderate volume. It gives me a chuckle as a former Speed King user, I don't think it's a big deal. There are other quirks in Zep's recordings such as tape bleed through, a phone ringing during "The Ocean," airplane passing overhea... | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 When he formed HF and introduced a line of products, explained the technology, it was exciting. He wasn't selling direct then. And it is exciting when a revision is introduced that has an improvement. But there were too many new models introduced... | |
| High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260 The only thing I don't like about HF is they introduce an improved technology each year. I purchased a cable, shortly afterwards a new one was introduced and Rick wouldn't take a trade-in. | |
| some rookie questions Last I checked my average listening was at 65-70dB. 12’ x 16’ room, I sit about 8’ away. Speakers are raked back which makes them fill the room and sound louder. | |

| Anyone try modern 6sn7 Shuguang WE type vs NOS RCA,Ken Rad @markusthenaimnut , You've got all the correct information. Apparently the Shuguang factory is gone and the company has ceased production. Another page turned and, apparently, the top engineers who had been involved in the Psvane venture le... | |
| Anyone try modern 6sn7 Shuguang WE type vs NOS RCA,Ken Rad Can anybody recommend quality octal adapters? The last set I bought was not an exact fit for an Atma-sphere amp. The dealer said there is some variation between pin spacing on adapters. | |
| Schitt Loki Max Lokius looks pretty sweet. How’s it working in your system? I liked the quality of the Loki but not the frequency crossover range. Max looks to be well implemented, but the price... |
