| purchasing US made speakers Jacobsen, Audiokinesis has a very valid point and hificrazed has tripped over one answer. You will be better served with very directional loudspeakers. You will perceive more detail and better imaging. The two types that fit the prescription best ... | |
| Direction on my next upgrade Chakster, that article is from 1994. I think you need to catch your breath, relax, get stoned and listen to music for the sheer enjoyment of it. Modern moving coil's moving systems have much lower effective mass than back then. That old high end p... | |
| Inner groove distortion as tonearm moves toward the center of record What is cause?? Who let those two digital guys in here. OFF with their heads! | |
| Direction on my next upgrade cpd, I would be inclined to upgrade your Rogue. If you listen to more dynamic music like Rock and Jazz you will not like switching to an inexpensive MC cartridge. MM cartridges are more dynamic and generally do better at the lower price levels. Th... | |

I do advanced audiology in my office.The correct answer is, I don't know on an individual basis.For people with healthy ears and normal hearing the answer is yes as long as you warm up your ears. The Stapedius muscle c... | |
| Inner groove distortion as tonearm moves toward the center of record What is cause?? Can't put it any better than Mike L. A tangential tracker does make a significant improvement but there is still the slow speed which limits high frequency performance. This is where 45 RPM records shine. | |
| Speaker Placement Not only is the room too small but you have two similar dimensions which will plague the bass. You would do well to use another room if you can.Putting your listening position against a wall is criminal! So you would be stuck using the 8 foot wall... | |
