| A Few Turntable Measurements using the RPM Android App @rauliruegas I read that review back in the day and It's positivity over vacuum clamping remained lodged in my neurons. The comments about the turntable sounding "dull" only for everyone to decide that the reference system was too bright is a ch... | |
| JBL 4367 = Sleep Denervation @james633 I forgot to mention. if you high pass the JBLs to subwoofers at 80 to 100 Hz block those ports off on the JBLs. You no longer need them to enhance low bass and they are leaking muffled midrange. The low frequencies they enhance are bei... | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" @wizzzard I had an Oracle back in 1978 I think it was. It is a beautiful thing. Back then the suspension was not well sorted out and it was unstable. I wound up selling it I can't remember if I went back to an LP 12 from there or into the SOTA. ... | |
| Grado Epoch 3 @rauliruegas , @audiofun Please pardon my rambling. I just had my left knee replaced and am full of morphine am rapped up in IV lines and pulse oxymeters. I probably should not be texting but it helps to divert my mind from stressing issues. S... | |
| Grado Epoch 3 @rauliruegas Very interesting choice. By all accounts a top notch cartridge. Fremer puts it in his top group. I really like the higher compliance, Lower tracking force approach. I wish the coil impedance were a little lower. The only issue that ... | |
| Grado Epoch 3 @audiofun Sound quality, as always is a moving target. The quality of construction is not. I use an elaborate, high powered USB microscope to examine cartridges using a special program that accurately measures angles by snapping lines. I have no... | |
| A Few Turntable Measurements using the RPM Android App @kevemaher I was never an AS fan. I do not care for units that go out of their way to look flashy without obvious benefit. Having said that there are four sources of noise when playing vinyl, the turntable, the record, the environment and lastly... | |
| Burn in vs perception @w123ale I would say, in the case of your speakers you are absolutely right. You have accommodated to their sound. In other cases electromechanical “ break in” does occur. I actually measured it with a set of tubes. I think this is true of car... | |
| Fathom subwoofers? @richardmathes At this moment in time the best subwoofers are “balanced force” designs. These are being made by KEF, Martin Logan and Magic. The moving mass of a subwoofer is pretty high. Moving it rapidly 15 mm required a lot of force. Look a... | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" @lewm Any humor and 10 mg morphine are greatly appreciated. | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" @wizzzard i am waving to remind everyone that I am here, in a lot of pain, waiting. | |
| Grado Epoch 3 It sounds to me that you prefer a sound that varies from reality . Pianos on stage are not a whole lot larger than a saxophone. You can get a 10 foot wide one on bad recordings. Images on good recordings are sharply localized with black in between... | |
| A Few Turntable Measurements using the RPM Android App Replace the belt on the wow and measure again. Let us know what happens. | |

| High end speakers at low volume @phusis @lonemountain I have been using digital room control (really speaker control) for 25 years and the really stunning effect is the laser focusing of the image. After the improvement in imaging the real benefit is in being able to tailor ... |
