| There's No Question @benmeadows , What you noticed is true with any conventional loudspeaker. They are much more prone to room interaction and placement issues than dipoles like the Magneplanar. Dipoles have limited dispersion. They do not radiate any sound to the si... | |
| JBL 4367 = Sleep Denervation @james633 , You are not even 50% of the way there yet. Your speakers are capable of even better performance! The woofer in the 4367 is crossed over to the horn at 700 Hz. That covers a huge amount of the mid range. Remember, middle C is 256 Hz. ... | |
| Turntable Upgrade Advice Go with the Michell. It is a lot of turntable for the money and the arm is excellent. I think it is just as good if not better than the other turntables you mentioned. | |
| Koestu original Onyx Sig pre-platinum cart vs. later/current platinum Sig comparisons @wizzzard , You could try opening a post on Audiogon. Otherwise, I am not sure how you would attract experienced Koetsu users. Most of us attribute the decline to Sugano San's death. His son took over and the theory is that he is not as talented. ... | |
| subwoofer buzz - how to eliminate it You do not want to isolate the sub from the floor. You want to do exactly the opposite which is fix the sub to the floor. This is what spikes are for. Use three, two up front and one in the rear. Trying to isolate a sub from the floor is folly. Ba... | |
| subwoofer buzz - how to eliminate it @grislybutter , I have been building subwoofers for 40 years and I am the master of buzz/rattle elimination. First is to make sure the buzz is coming from the woofer. The worst buzz I ever had turned out to be coming from my theater screen but d... | |

| Koestu original Onyx Sig pre-platinum cart vs. later/current platinum Sig comparisons This is a case where things have obviously gone downhill. The current Koetsu line can not compare to the earlier cartridges. No Koetsu fan I know of prefers the later cartridges. If you do not have access to an earlier one get a My Sonic Lab Signa... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey @thr1961 No rack should be rickety but bracing yours will probably not help. I suggest you do not waste money and go right to a low profile MinusK platform. You have a fine turntable and it deserves more than 1/2 baked solutions. The MinusK will s... | |
| Subwoofers: add a JL Audio or switch to 2 Rythmic subs? Add another E112 and get a real two way crossover. JL makes one. 1/2 the benefit of using subs is being able to remove the low bass from the main speakers which lowers distortion dramatically. With two subs up against the wall between the main spe... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey @pindac Yup, that is why none of us Americans have any teeth. Canadians fight dirty. | |
| Which MM, MI, or Hi output...Nagaoka 300/500, Clearaudio Maestro, Soundsmith Carmen @rauliruegas , That's it. No ice cream for you tonight:-) | |
| Music Hall's "Classic" turntable :How does it compare to other similarly priced T/T's Go with the Rega! | |
| Bass only when I stand up… @elliottbnewcombjr is on the right track but I would do it by putting the speakers on dollies to move around and when you find a better location (if there is one) put them back down on the spikes. As you discovered rooms can develop nodal behavi... | |
| Which MM, MI, or Hi output...Nagaoka 300/500, Clearaudio Maestro, Soundsmith Carmen @rauliruegas , I never said I did. |
