What would your "perfect speaker" sound like.
You can not discuss loudspeakers without including the room, they are both part of the same transducer. The perfect speaker room would be the one that, with the best live recordings, could fool you into thinking you were at a live performance from... 
Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers?
@emergingsoul  I make furniture and cabinetry. What you are probably dealing with is a polyester lacquer, the same type used on Pianos. First off, it depends how deep the "scratches" are. Scratches you can not feel with the edge of your fingernai... 
A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum
@ml8764ag  Those magnifications are way beyond any lens like that. The other problem is you would never be able to hold the phone steady enough to get a picture or even get a small item in field.  If you go to my virtual system page pull up the ... 
A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum
@lewm  They are exactly equal and the cartridge sounds fine and the gain is exactly the same. (Transimpedance)  @rauliruegas  I missed that. The wife and I were away for our 35th wedding anniversary. I left the computer home, more important fis...

A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum
@rauliruegas  Sorry Raul. I tossed the cartridge when the left channel went dead. It was a sapphire cantilever and I believe it was a rod not a tube but I can not be sure. Peter Ledermann uses a ruby cantilever, a pretty red one. He makes a speci... 
VAS (Steven Leung) cartridge repair/retipping service?
@dogberry  When you see an ancient design that is way off patent and nobody is copying it, there is a reason.

Loudspeaker sensitivity and dynamics: are the two inexorably linked?

Loudspeaker sensitivity and dynamics: are the two inexorably linked?
@cleeds  1+ There is no connection at all. Good examples are Horns and ESLs two vastly different types of loudspeakers. Horns are very efficient while ESLs are not. Both are very dynamic in the portions of the frequency range they can handle corr...
