| Question about Tone Controls + Equalizers Jay, being able to adjust a systems frequency response is a wonderful capability but tone controls and analog equalizers are like model T's to digital room control (acts like an equalizer). First of all it helps if you know what your system is doi... | |

| Ultrasonic cleaning before and after Slaw, you are absolutely correct. I use a conductive sweep arm that has conductive carbon fiber bristles which is wired to ground. It shorts the record out while it is playing and tracks the record with the tonearm. The record never collects stati... | |

You can record records to your hard drive. You type in the record's PL # and all the data will pull down au... | |
| Rega P10 v Complete rebuild Garrard 401! ndevamp, not my subwoofers. And just what other considerable virtues are there other than the retro aesthetics? As a note, in my book anything under 100 Hz is certainly rumble and my subwoofers are crossed over at 125 Hz so it may be more of a pro... |
