Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable blueranger ambrosia maple is almost always soft maple (Red or silver). I have never seen hard maple with Ambrosia beetle damage before, only Red Maple. I have sold hardwood lumber since 2000, but I guess anything is possible in mother nature. | |
Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable dwette with that Janka scale rating it would be hard maple. I sell hardwood lumber and was just curious what the preferred type seemed to be. Thanks for the input. | |
Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable With regards to the maple from Mapleshade or Butcher Block Acoustics is this hard Maple or soft Maple? If its soft Maple it is not as dense as Cherry or Black Walnut. Hard Maple is very hard and I would imagine its resonance is at a higher frequ... | |
Powercon connectors for AC Thanks for the input. This is an older Quicksilver tube amp that I want to use as a stop gap. I got to believe that any one that is interested in purchasing it later would appreciate a far better power cable than the stock cable/connection type. | |

Line Magnetic quality I thought that LM is now dissolved as the two brothers that started the company were at odds with each other? Did this issue get resolved? | |
Legacy Aeris owners which amp do you use and why? I would suggest finding a stocking dealer and try out amplifiers in your home with the Aeris. Otherwise its really not something that anyone can suggest that will satisfy your ears, system and room. | |

Solid State vs. Tubes - What if Transistors came first? Tubes were a step along the way to where we are today, which is not tubes to any meaningful extent worth mentioning anywhere but circular threads on "audiophile" forums. There was no sign of tubes on today's Apple conference and Bose does not s... | |

Solid State vs. Tubes - What if Transistors came first? I have heard a few Korg audio designs. No life. It's great that we all can choose what we want to listen to still. Just buy something and keep this hobby alive folks! | |
Solid State vs. Tubes - What if Transistors came first? I have only used tubed audio components since the late 1970's. I still have yet to find a modern SS/Digital amplification device that I would retire my valves for, but I will always remain open to anything that sounds better to my ears. Still wa... |
