| IS SOUND SMITH. STILL IN BUSINESS? https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/soundsmith-having-issues-because-of-covid | |
| IS SOUND SMITH. STILL IN BUSINESS? God willing he did not get COVID 19. If he does it will not go well. Is there anyone who can take over the business if something happens to Mr Ledermann? Hopefully they just shut down for the disease and will get back to it once the vaccine is out. | |
| D'agostino amplifiers: where's the beef? With pulse width modulation and a high enough sampling rate it should be possible to make an excellent sounding Class D amp. TacT did it once before. | |
| D'agostino amplifiers: where's the beef? mg012, I love Class A amps and have not heard a class D amp that I would be tempted to buy but that is a gross generalization and I have a hard time equating vinyl playback vs CD to Standard VS Class D amplifiers | |
| Why so many Hegel's for sale? Now I'm gonna get it 🤕 | |
| Why so many Hegel's for sale? Simple, integrated units are just a step a long the path. People decide they want something more and move up to separates. They rarely go down or even sideways. Not that Hegels are bad. They are not bad at all.Millercarbon the reason there are not... | |
| The lovely Capriccio Continuo Admonitor 311's a real gem. Your thoughts? Nice looking little speaker. I like the option to add woofers down the line.The problem is that at $6,000.00 a pair you can have a pair of Magnepan 3.7i's. Granted there is a huge size differential but...Undoubtedly they are much more competitive ... | |
| D'agostino amplifiers: where's the beef? Clearthinker, you telling me that speakers are not overpriced? Maybe at the bottom end but at the top end like cartridges they are way overpriced. God bless Magnepan and Soundlabs. High end speakers at reasonable prices. | |
| D'agostino amplifiers: where's the beef? Dan is a jerk. I can say that from extreme first hand experience backed up by my best friend who was with me at the time. The input selector of my Krell Ref 2 preamp had two dead contacts and the others were very scratchy. The unit was 11 years ol... | |
| AT-ART9XI Cartridge - Reduced Compliance Keegiam, you might have to add a little weight to your headshell. No problem. Every time you change cartridges you should check your resonance frequency with a test record as there is a fair degree of variability in these specs. Trust but verify. | |
| Springs under turntable Mahgister, I have decided that there is absolutely no way to explain anything with you. You are an inexplicable force of nature. You are however entitled to do anything you want with your system even if it leaves several of us scratching our heads... | |
| Springs under turntable rixthetrick, and on what science to you base this rather floral opinion on? | |
| Options for ridding records of static electricity Sure blueranger but what values do you want to maintain? Humans are uncomfortable below 40% and above 80%. | |
| Springs under turntable Good noromance. Just don't sneeze:) Lewm is absolutely correct. For a driver to do its job correctly it has to be held rigidly in space. Any spurious vibration of the driver is distortion. The problem really does not become critical until you get ... | |
| Springs under turntable Noromance, If it is bouncing less than three times a second you are fine. You can use the same springs all round but you have to locate the center of mass and place them equidistant from that point unfortunately a tricky thing to do. If you use sp... |
