| My thoughts on TT isolation methods. bdp24, The Townsend Seismic Pods are dampened compression springsof various spring rates. They can certainly be useful under certain circumstances. You can place them under your turntable and if you order the right ones should be able to get your ... | |
| My thoughts on TT isolation methods. No antigrunge2. It is not a feedback situation. If you put an oscilloscope on the output of your phono stage and place the stylus down on a record with the turntable off without adequate isolation you will see an varistey is low intensity low freq... | |
| Warm up time for record playing Chakster, it takes one to know one. | |
| Warm up time for record playing rvpiano, Of course the improvement is palpable. Why would the microphone changing it's sensitivity and frequency response be any different then your system doing that. I know for an absolute fact your hearing does this. Read any book on the physio... | |
| Can an “audiophile” ever be satisfied with a system? You are off the merry-go-round when you are dead. (or out of money) | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Sota and Basis make the best pads IMHO but I have not listened to a lot of them. I think the clamping method is more important. In most cases reflex clamping will work with all but the most severely warped records and I do not have an of those. Va... | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Atmasphere, I thought we were talking about oil or silicone based damping systems with troughs, paddles and goo. Obviously arm tubes can't ring which is why aluminum is frequently used. Stuff makes a worthless bell. It is the additional damping re... | |
| Niagara 1200 and subwoofers Right, you do not want to plug your amplifiers and subwoofers into the same unit as your low level equipment. The subwoofers should be plugged into the closest outlet. Same for the amplifiers. | |
| Warm up time for record playing 1+ elliottbnewcombjr.Your central nervous system accommodates to the environment in many ways. Attached to one of your little ear conduction bones (ossicles) is the smallest muscle in the body called the stapedius. As the ear is exposed to louder ... | |
| As much as I try, I just don't get it........ The most important item to audition prior to buying is the loudspeaker. If they work tolerable well in the store you should be able to get them to work even better at home where you have control over the acoustics. Unless you are lucky and have a ... | |
| Question regarding subwoofers Hi Musicfan, I used Acoustats with 2 SB-1's for years. The SB-1 has a downward firing 12 " woofer in what has been described as a Helmholtz resonating enclosure. It is a great subwoofer. It is bigger than most subwoofers now and it is passive. You... | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Raul, all the clowns I know are really nice people. Pretty smart also.I think you do them an injustice relating them to ignorant. | |
| vinyl versus digital redux @orpheus10 As I have said, recording albums is tedious work. I like playing records. It is tradition, I have thousands of them, I like it.I have thousands of files on the hard drive. There is always something I want to hear in either format so I ... | |
| Do you use a Subwoofer when listening to stereo? drlisz, the type of music has nothing to do with this unless you only listen to string quartets. A good system will play anything equally well. If it can't it is not a good system. | |
| Do you use a Subwoofer when listening to stereo? Atmasphere, I am going to disagree on this one. My experience is different but I think I might go about it differently than most. Up at the crossover point I am just listening and I do not want to hear it. The subwoofers should just disappear(reme... |
