| Looking for a true upgrade in sound quality I recently added the SmoothLan and was pleasantly surprised. Also although there it took a few days to process my order (they are busy), shipping from the UK to Cali was 3 days. btw I tried the IFi filter and send it back. | |
| Speaker question My apologies then, the question sounded like two choices weighted by a predetermined preference for one and a great deal on the other. As that is not the case ask away and good luck in your search. | |
| What is A.R.T? I have to say this is a little too much for me. The dude should have rehearsed his pitch- it was lame. in any case, at only $12,500 I’m getting at least 2 kidding… I have asked what their return policy is | |
| Anyone adjust cart set up due to ambient temperature changes? @pindac Thanks, I was planning having it re-tipped in 6 months or so whether it needs it or not so they can check it out then. Turnaround is fairly quick | |
| Anyone adjust cart set up due to ambient temperature changes? @cleeds @dogberry tagging you now Tammy from AG said tags work they just don’t auto populate and turn blue | |
| Anyone adjust cart set up due to ambient temperature changes? I live near the SoCal coast so 68-72 is common, but it can warm up quite quicky if the marine layer dissipates and the wind shifts the house can get to 78 or more if especially if we are not home. | |
| Anyone adjust cart set up due to ambient temperature changes? @lewm The plan was to experiment first with the smallest change to down force. Then see if that, combined with a small change in VTA did the trick. If these small adjustments didn’t solve the issue then I was to send the cart in for evaluation. ... | |
| Interconnects priority Here is what I did FWIW. I went from RCA to XLR from phono to integrated - this was a really noticeable improvement - and I a/b tested using same brand of cable This lowered the noise floor and boosted the SNR I use Zavfino Fusion which is ver... | |
| Anyone adjust cart set up due to ambient temperature changes? It seems the ability to tag members isn’t working… Anyway. It’s actually part of the front structure that supports the generator (if that is the correct term) The cart is an Aidas CU Durawood Bee. | |
| Speaker question Not sure why you are asking advice then…binary decision…both are good choices so either go for broke or go for the deal. | |
| Don't do anything! Carts often need a break in period, and ambient temperature can affect them | |
| Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery Advice to the OP... If I Had More Time, I Would Have Written a Shorter Letter My guess is the OP had a nice experience dealing with Mark as did I, and likes the idea of supporting a small American business, as do I. The idea of the SDFB made ... | |
| Will VPI's Classic 3 sound much better with a SUT? Getting back to the topic at hand... OP, please don't take offense, but IMHO your VPI will sound better with better full-range 100% passive speakers. For reference, I've owned BP2000's and Mythos ST-L's. | |
| If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it? Electric guitars are available that can be made to sound like Les Paul's, Stratocasters, Telecasters, Flying V's and many more, does that make them artificial? No. A human has to pick them up and pluck the strings. To answer the original ques... | |
| Do No Harm ... well the least harm anyway +1 @soix With speakers going down to 26Hz (not including the room), I would think you would start with the subs crossing over around 30Hz and play with the gain first, and then adjust +/- 5Hz and dial in from there. IMO phase should be set to z... |
