surround processor?
It's very unfortunate that we have several users on this forum who just continually slam any idea of home theater and multi-channel systems. Yeah, after 100 duplicate copy-pasted messages on this forum, we get it. Every channel costs money and h... 
Mobile Fidelity StudioDeck Setup Issue
What is the angle of the arm tube to the platter? When lowered all the way onto a record it should be just about dead parallel with the record. Looking at your table manual there are two things that could be wrong. To know which one remember the a... 
Learning to Listen: Neurological Evidence
What you are asking is at the root of the Learning to Listen discussions: How do you learn to hear something you don’t yet know how to hear? The first two were direct and to the point. Whatever it is you are able to hear today, there was a time wh...

A 60 year old turntable design is still going strong!
Right. That's why I said it isn't a weight, and put scare quotes around "weight". Technically it is a weight. It has mass. Or it would float away. But only a little. So not a weight. Not in the normal sense everyone means.   Origin Live https://ww... 
Townshend Springs under Speakers
Springs and floppy things allow the cabinet to retain information and resonance far to long. Actually no, that is not what happens. This has been explained so clearly so many times it is hard to see this as anything resembling trying to understan... 
Learning to Listen: Neurological Evidence
It was listening to the XLO Test CD track Poor Boy that triggered my awareness, of what I was hearing from some of the better CD players and amps. They were less etched and grainy than mine, but it took playing this all analog recording to make th...

Two channel and home theater room under construction
Sounds like you are doing all the sensible stuff, and not obsessing, and that is great. How's the time line looking?
