| Selecting tonearm and cartridge.HELP Audio Technica makes fantastic cartridges and tonearms.Want the best quality? in this case you may have to buy the top model. | |
| Hum after replacing tonearm cable what do you mean by high-end cable?I suspect it is not 100% compatible or the new cable you bought has a design defect. If possible, switch back to the original cable and test it. Then power down (for about 5 minutes) and test the new cable. This ... | |
| Audiophile router configuration As a former Network Admin/Engineer, I think you should probably get a better router. Sounds to me like you have a router that maxes out at 54Mbps for media consumption. You should be aiming for at least 300mbps in full duplex mode - with any perfo... | |
| Best Wireless ear buds for SOUND..??! Headphone tech is moving fast....and that means for earbuds as well.Do you want truly wireless? Check out these brands: Sony, Jabra, or Pioneer.You can get a nice pair under $250 (or well below) that will serve you well. | |
| Issue with Mc 5200 Amp shutting down... What mattmiller said -great! But if that doesn't fit it, the amp may require 1 or more fuses to be replaced. Although I don't know of this amp, what you described sounds like a fuse issue.Always best to send the manufacturer an email about it. See... | |
| need a better sound source? Expensive "audiophile-grade" cables that cost thousands of dollars are marketing hogwash. Cable manufacturers will tinker with the cables’ nominal impedance; in doing so the sound signature will change. Poof! Now you know. If we actually required ... | |

| Best Sounding USB Cables? You don't need to spend tons of money on USB cables for audio. The digital signal doesn't know whether or not it's been fed through a cheap cable or an expensive one. Ideas about "lowest possible inductance, capacitance, or impedance" are simply n... | |
| TOTL Headphone Amps Check out audio science review - great website. The reviewer regularly tests audio equipment (with measurements!), and this includes audio amplifiers.The Topping A90 and DROP THX 789 are both excellent.If you want even better than that, go for TAD... | |
| Headset ohms? What you're talking about has to do with a bunch of things:- sensitivity (loudness relative to impedance) - impedance (measure of electrical resistance) - power handling (measured in Mw) - computer audio sound cards (mostly unique)Lower impedance ... | |
| Selecting used Stax phone and amp Best thing to do would be to contact STAX. I have contacted many manufacturers in the past...and they were able to help me make decisions or solve problems. | |
| Listening to open-backed headphones and speakers simultaneously? This is actually fairly interesting....One of my systems has a surround-field function, connected to near-field monitors. With open backed headphones, imaging and sound-staging abilities would likely improve.If you don't have this kind of set up, ... | |
| Looking For Best Headphones NAD HP50 - for all genres of music. (I own them too)It's an over-ear, closed headphone that sounds kind of open. Great for all genres of music. The thing I like about them most...is their ability to present music confidently...even if the track w... |
