| Do you have ways to ease use of vinyl? Mine was on the floor - when I was young, and no money for a good rack. Soon as I built a proper rack it went up to convenient height. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367A good light helps a lot. My VPI vac is right beside the table. Now th... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! As you've said before, "everything matters." One thing that you have that others of us don't have is a distributed bass array. The question is how much of your results related to bass in this review do you think would be happening without a bass a... | |
| What is the best receiver to use with the A90J? Budget up to $2k If you really want sound quality over all, then you definitely want a stereo integrated amp and 2 speakers. The performance gap is so great literally any integrated, the worst one you could find, will sound a lot better than the very best AVR you ... | |
| Wilson Audio Specialties Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker!! only $300,000.oo That was Diana Krull. | |
| What is the best receiver to use with the A90J? Budget up to $2k terrible advice, as virtue signaling always winds up being:millercarbon posts the same exact message on every single home theater thread, so you can pretty much ignore because he is on a crusade to kill anything "multi-channel". That being said, s... | |
| What is the best receiver to use with the A90J? Budget up to $2k There are no receivers I can recommend to anyone. The only thing worse than a receiver is an AVR. There is nothing worse. In all of audio. Period. | |
| Dedicated AC line - Contractor wants to use BX instead of romex Your contractor is nuts. You want the cryo wire. You do not want it in conduit. You are willing to come string it through the holes in the middle of the night if that is what it takes. Etc, etc. | |
| Room size. I recommend you watch Eric Alexander's video on this subject. He agrees with me, the whole small room/small speaker thing is bogus. Bass frequencies are very long wavelength, so long that every room is small relative to a 50+ foot bass wave. So ev... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! The time on all my new wire is into around 100 hours now, and wow does it sound great! The combination of the exceedingly fast and liquid M101 Mr White power cord with the revealingly neutral fast and liquid F1 is now with more hours just a really... | |
| Dumb blonde needs help with power cable matching to subwoofer Any power cord. Look around, most guys have some of the cheap black rubber ones that come with components. Use that one. Any power cords other than the freebie black ones should be sold separately. | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! Another interesting thing about the Hateful 18 list, reviewing it as I did just now it is striking how many are no longer around. Some because they were banned. Others shunned. Still others so pathological they reappear under different names. Ther... | |
| How it started... How it's going It started for me with my parents crappy portable cassette player. In high school and college it was JBL, Kenwood, Pioneer, Technics. In 1990 it was the room I am in now, only with a board (2x12 plank I think) with the same Kenwood amp on it only... | |
| RCA Interconnect. Not about to name anyone in particular here, not responding to the last post either. Wouldn’t want to single anyone out when there are so many worthy competitors, but the things some guys say when they start pontificating, makes me wonder, are the... | |
| Best (or most amusing) cheap fixes I'll see your Tums, and raise you a rubber band! 😂😂😂😂😂https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 | |
| Brand Synergy What is this synergy of which you speak? And when you're done with that one, What is PRAT? |
