I’m running corner horns with 2 watts and Soft Serve by Soul Coughing will punch you in chest and vibrate furniture. Same thing here. Turned out it was pneumonia.

Phono cartridge torque wrench
I tried that but the DME showed 5000 Range 6 ignitions at 480 hours. I don't understand. She only has 481 hours and I never took her over redline even once.  
Townshend Maximum Supertweeters
Good question. Never tried anything else. I do know there are a couple people who tried cheaper ones that weren’t as good. So quality does count for something even here. I have no idea what it is we are hearing or why it works at all with CD. Only... 
Distributed Bass Array configuration
I think that if the DBA system is integrated properly it affords one the ability to integrate bass effortlessly, no matter the listening level, which is highly appealing to me. The beauty of DBA is the "integrated properly" happens almost autom... 
My Apologies to Miller Carbon
Check it out, Frank, he's an equal-opportunity insulter. If he ever heard your system, it would be  https://youtu.be/aY3s0FlwZfM?t=73  
Speaker placement
You could buy a framing square, tape measure, and string and hear an improvement for a fraction of the drive fee. Seriously. The setup I described works so well one year at CES the Talon Audio guy spent a couple hours tearing his hair out trying t...

Townshend Audio Podiums: The Full Review
grannyring- I plan to talk to John about the Pods for use under my rack and/or individual pieces of gear. His products are not low priced, but I can see them staying in place for a lifetime unlike others I have tried or owned. In the end, cost of ... 
VAC preamps - too expensive?
For some reason I find it oddly comforting to know even an inanimate object like a preamp can be arrogant. Good to know.  
A full range speaker?
realworldaudio- The brain makes sense of the fundamentals ONLY when the upper harmonic spectrum is correct. If true this would explain a number of things. It would explain whyTownshend Supertweeters improved the sound of instruments far lower in f... 
Best sub for music,
The number of subs and their distribution is far more important.

If you buy them, then they were done for money. Done for money is literally the definition of professional. Anyone past grade school would know this. Unless you are MDS. But you already said you are not MDS. So....it all becomes so clear now. 
I’m also worried about how much of the harmonics in the music is LOST by the amp?
This subject is basically fantasy football. I was never any good at it. I would always say okay you pick your team players, I pick my stadium, with $3B tax credits, waivers, lease buy-back. The real fantasy is thinking its anything to do with winn... 
Help! New TT skipping badly....
Already provided two solutions- three, if you want to count springs under the rack. Which you seem to not have read anything I posted. One more try. The problem is not the floor. If the floor was so unstable then you would have had problems with t...
