Next upgrade for my analog source jperry, I've heard it's big brother The L20 extensively and the circuitry is almost identical. The big one just has more units resulting in a lower signal to noise ratio. I would buy one tomorrow but it is $42,000.00.After reading the TAS review i... | |
Are There Any Risks to Your Stylus From Using Magic Eraser First of all, sibilance is due to boosted frequency's between 2500 and 4000Hz. Instruments like female voices and violins have a lot of output here. Cutting those frequency's just 2 or 3 dB smooths things out beautifully.A dirty stylus when it get... | |
Too good a post to waste cdorval, I have one of those Panasonic nasal hair trimmer gadgets. Works great in your ears.There is no reason to do double blind testing in audio comparisons. You don't even need to single blind as long as you are honest to yourself. Your not app... | |
Too good a post to waste petg60, totally false. 99% of the difference is marketing BS the other 1% is the color. I also have a much nicer soldering iron than the ones used in China. | |
Too good a post to waste geoffkait, as I re read my post I did not differentiate between cheap or expensive cables. The comment included ALL cables. Helloo, comments like your are usually made by people who have no idea how to use a soldering iron so they have to belittle... | |
Best turntable base & tonearm for $1000? Excel sound corp does not list compliance in their specs. But it is probably around 12 um/mN. It is better to go with a lighter tone arm because you can always add mass. I would suggest the Mobil Fidelity StudioDeck. It is a beautiful little tabl... | |
I can prove your room is bad Excuse me. Bipolar is the wrong term. It should be dipole. Bipoles radiate from both sides in phase. Dipole the sides are 180 degrees out of phase. | |
I can prove your room is bad Erik is right. You can dramatically reduce room effects by getting a line source bipolar ESL. Then you only need some acoustic tile behind the speaker nothing else. What you will notice is that the speaker sounds exactly the same at 12 feet as it ... | |
Why no Virtual System pics?? There is nothing like beating up the road in a 911. 911 owner are a very different group of people than Ferrari owners. 911 guys are always under the hood working on their cars. Ferrari owners would never get their hands dirty. Their in their cock... | |
Why no Virtual System pics?? Yes Jaytor, very tongue in cheek. That is what the smile was meant to convey. I still have my turntables but they are digitized so they can run through my digital processor. How evil can you get. Moving is certainly a major PITA. Since I had to mo... | |
Tonearm lead connection on last leg Last Lemming you can get new clips on line from several vendors. Buy a set of four that comes with the colored heat shrink tubing to identify the lead. Clip all the old clips off and trim the wire. Do one at a time so you do not forget which color... | |
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive Raul you rascal. You got banned from a forum? Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. In my own experience distinguishing between excellent turntables using the same cartridge is difficult and likely more dependent on my mood than any specific difference ... | |
Why no Virtual System pics?? Jaytor, no turntable? Real audiophiles have turntables:)Mike, nobody has ever given me the finger listening to my system. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten it in the 911's. On the bright side I get just as many thumbs up.As for my system... | |
Low volume listening dynamics Mike, sitting closer is just turning up the volume. It certainly helps negating any room problems.The beauty of having 8 foot line source dipole speakers is that you are always near field even 12 feet away. Irregardless of the equipment being used... | |
Automatic Tonearm Lifter Help Nothing is going to work. One day someone will make a motorized cue arm. Your only option is to get a table with enough room for a lift. Letting the run out track play a little while is not a problem. You do not have to run to it for fear of damag... |
