| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl Uberwaltz, thanx for the update. I have not paid much attention to it. I only steam Pandora in the office. It is free if you don't mind an occasional ad. Lalitk, I did not say anything about the sound, just that I don't like collecting them. All m... | |
| Speaker toe in Shoot Duke, I want a bird dog fee:) | |
| Searching for matching(?) Subwoofer solution I hear you Duke but the market for smallish subs might be higher than you suspect. Most people do not have large rooms and wife do not like tripping over big boxes. I would not charge much less for them, whatever the difference in materials is. Fo... | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl Skyscraper is right about streaming although I think there are now a couple of sources that stream high res files the vast majority of it is compressed files which to every audiophile's ears sound crappy. But, if you download high res files to a h... | |
| Adjusting the cueing mechanism on a Mørch tonearm There is a grub screw in the base ring. Loosen it and the base will slide up and down on the shaft. Set this first before you touch the lifter! Mike | |
| High output MC cartridges chakster is absolutely right. High Output MCs have to have a large coil structure to produce the output leading to a high mass situation. Not good for something that has to move very fast. A good moving iron cartridge has perhaps the lowest moving... | |
| What do you consider "loud" for your system? richmos. You have it right. I generally listen to rock at 95 dB. Louder does not add much and risks your ears. Always warm up your ears. Never go immediately to full tilt boogey. Start at a lower volume and slowly turn it up over 5 minutes. Give y... | |
| Searching for matching(?) Subwoofer solution Duke, I think what people are concerned with is the size of the subs in a small room. I'm sure you know all this already but using a smaller enclosure with the appropriate driver then digitally equalizing it may suit people with smaller rooms....a... | |
| Am I asking for too much?? As with anything human there are a myriad number of conflicting motives that are impossible to countenance. Whether you like it or not you are on your own. There is no magic in loudspeakers. Most important are the basic type then the build quality... | |
| Speaker toe in Great job of explaining Duke. Before I became committed to ESLs I had several speakers that did best with extreme toe in. It all depends on the dispersion pattern of the speaker. The brains method of localization, phase and volume also explain why... | |
| Adjusting the cueing mechanism on a Mørch tonearm Hi Keith,You have to make absolutely sure your tonearm height is right. You may be too low in the rear. In Morch arms the cue device also doubles as the arm rest. Raising the rear just a little should fix things. They are supposed to be set right ... | |
| Why do YOU love Vinyl/or hate vinyl I still listen to records because it is a tinkerer's dream as tooblue suggests. There is some psychological thrill in getting it just right. Vinyl has a warm euphoric quality missing from digital. Digital is more accurate but in many instances vin... | |
| Searching for matching(?) Subwoofer solution Darn, we all seem to be agreeing. You guys are no fun:) | |
| Am I asking for too much?? Daveyf, they always choose a fanboy to do the review. Need I say more.I will anyway. Speakers are the most crucial part of your system. If they are not to your liking nothing you can do will make them palatable. You have to listen before you leap.... | |
| TT on Symposium Super Segue - slate or maple underneath? If you floor is on concrete and your equipment rack is sturdy just use the maple. Wood that thick is very dead and maple is very heavy, perfect.If your floor is not on concrete a good suspended turntable would be preferable and nothing you can do ... |
