Anyone use auto lifters? Opinions
I will certainly do that but I am a little mift. I have not heard anything from the Expressimo web site regarding my purchase. These lift are only available now from this web site. I used Paypal to pay for it so I am protected.I have not had even ... 
Swapped long wall to short wall and now I am having some big issues
almarge, The peak at 18K is what I am talking about. This is the problem when you use two tweeters like this. The domes look like they are about 6 inches apart which corresponds to a wavelength in the 2000 Hz region or so. Below 2000 Hz the tweete...

Terrible Booms
Stani19, Describe the construction of your floor for me. You mentioned Parquet with voids below? Is it Parquet on a wooden joist floor? What is the width of the joists 10"? What are the dimensions of the room. Is there a basement under the floor a... 
LP12- Power Supply- Need education
Davey, I lived with LP12s for 10 years. The only thing I have nice to say about it is that it had a dust cover. The only reason I stuck with them is because until the SOTA Sapphire came along everything else was worse. You want to know how crappy ... 
LP12- Power Supply- Need education
Millercarbon, the power cord made a difference only because you wanted it to. In reality it did not make any difference. Don't feel like I am picking on you. I sometimes have trouble separating psyche from reality. I have never used either turntab... 
Swapped long wall to short wall and now I am having some big issues
Almarge, by your description it seems that the speakers are already "bright' in the near field. As you move away from the speaker this disparity is like likely to increase. primary reflections close to the speaker will make this worse. You can abs... 
Equipment Rack Between Speakers...Good or Bad
Oh and yyzsantabarbera, Benchmark meets the AES standard so you are in great shape. Get another AHB2, strap them and put them behind your speakers. I promise you will love that. Thanx for the recognition:)  
Equipment Rack Between Speakers...Good or Bad
Millercarbon, what planet are you living on? Here on earth when dealing with very low impedance devices like loudspeakers you want a cable that has as low series and parallel resistance as is possible which means as short as possible. Since I make... 
Equipment Rack Between Speakers...Good or Bad
yyxsantabarbera, I use Canare D206 AES/EBU cable with Neutric gold XLRs. I use it for long balanced runs and also digital transfer in any length. it is an ultra wide bandwidth cable. Caphill, Magico's flagship speakers are the Q7 mkII. I expect yo... 
LP12- Power Supply- Need education
See msnpassion. All this is meaningless mental gymnastics.Any minor irregularities are filtered out by the mass of the platter. They never make it to the record.Millercarbon since I know you are a smart guy I have to believe that you have never ha... 
Anyone use auto lifters? Opinions
Sleepwalker, I meant a stand alone optical lift you could use on any turntable. Jameswei, I see on the internet people put a little strip of the soft side of Velcro on the arm where it contacts the tonearm. I would think that would get rid of the ... 
Turntable newbie info site?
I would find a Hi Fi store near you and find a sales person familiar with turntables. Have him show you what it is about then he can answer your questions in real time. He will try to sell you what is in the store. If he has several brands that ma... 
Swapped long wall to short wall and now I am having some big issues
OK, on the long wall you had delayed primary reflections on the side walls and they occurred at lower volumes because they were farther away, a situation that would probably favor that speaker which has one design flaw, it has two tweeters which a... 
LP12- Power Supply- Need education
msnpassion, I think you answered your own question. Having owned two LP 12s, the problems I had with that table had nothing to do with it's power supply. Rotational stability was fine and none of the cartridges I used with the LP12 had a noise iss...
