Townshend Springs under Speakers I have a couple of questions for you. Without springs the cabinet causes the floor to vibrate. This vibration manifests as ringing that can be seen on a seismograph. It also manifests as a blurring of image focus and harmonic coloring that can be... | |
Townshend Springs under Speakers Its true. ;) There is ringing. Also no matter what happens the haters will see it only in the worst possible light. Definitely. | |

Electrolytic capacitor replacement Elegant would be more eloquent. Ditch the board. Hardwire direct. That's what I did. See the last couple pics on my system page. | |
Porsche And yet you care enough to just keep getting the digs in. Let it roll off your back. See how ducky it feels. | |
Porsche Right. When the usual suspects beat up on me and get caught out being dead wrong on the facts is never the time to talk about how dead wrong on the facts they are. It is time to change the subject. Good call. | |
Cartridge ISOLATION; What Say You? Of course, that will lead to what Tonearm? Origin Live Conqueror, or Enterprise. I had the old Conqueror MkIII and now have Enterprise MkIV. These are awesome arms! Among the many great features are the hard-wired phono leads. I’ve had both and th... | |
Quantum Science Audio Thread Even a casual glance across the landscape- cars, houses, food, lawnmowers, watches, sunglasses - pretty much every single thing you can think of is made better by..... making it better. Every. Single. Thing. How dense do you have to be to miss tha... | |
Cartridge ISOLATION; What Say You? I gather you do not advocate adding a soft layer under the tonearm base, or adding a soft layer above any cartridge, correct? Nor do I. So what happens around here over and over again, someone says something perfectly clear and uncontroversial, ... | |
Cartridge ISOLATION; What Say You? Thanks OP, good to see a few decent earnest audiophiles still around here. Ledermann’s Strain Gauge is good enough it more than likely will be next for me. There are not a lot of reviews but search around, they are there, and the consensus is the... | |
Porsche Why am I not surprised a guy who knows nothing about audio also managed to own several Porsches and even tour the factory and yet not know the Mezger engine was used in GT3 up until the 991. Since this video is a 997 that means the GTS has the nor... | |
This Whole AC noise thing...SOLUTION! @millercarbon: "There is no solution. Stop even thinking of it."Wow! Does that sentiment really jive with the icon you’ve chosen? Maybe Oscar the Grouch but Al?If we all lived by that credo, we’d all still be living in caves and wondering where ou... | |
Upgrade Time Your speakers are 88dB. We had some here only 87dB and they absolutely came alive with the Raven Blackhawk. Played impressively loud too, in my 17x24 room. Unless you have a lot bigger room or listen real loud you will be fine with this amp, which... | |
Power conditioner some say yes and some say no. Impossible question to answer because there is no way of knowing what "a" power conditioner is. They are not all the same you know. If you get a good one it will be better. If you don't it won't. Yes it really is that simple. | |
Porsche Sorry my bad, X51. Other than that everything else is spot on. Point being it is just another option, a power kit, that can be ordered on any Carrera S. In sharp contrast to the GT3 which uses a completely different engine.I do not for one second ... |
