| Should I decouple my subs too? Your best most cost-effective move will be Nobsound springs under the subs, and Townshend Podiums under your speakers. Read the reviews and comments, Gaia do not seem to be worth the huge price differential vs Nobsound, but Townshend is worth the ... | |
| Recommendations on Integrated Tube Amp around $5k Why do people buy low sensitivity speakers? Oh well, 90 is not the end of the world. Since you want intimate and are not concerned with head banging volume you already have the amp on your list- the Raven Blackhawk. Cannot be beat, especially not ... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! You probably would not expect much difference between a Corvair and a 911 either then. After all, both are rear engine air cooled cars. So how can one possibly be better than another? Yet the Corvair went down in flames while the 911 has been and ... | |
| Should I decouple my subs too? I just got off the phone with the REL guy and he said NOT to put footers on the subs as they perform better coupled to the floor. If you would like I have a long list of manufacturers I can put you in touch with, every single one of whom will tel... | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! Yeah. But seriously, Frank nailed it. | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! mitch2-I keep reading about their fractal wire and would like to hear a set sometime. Since they put so much emphasis on the quality of the fractal wire, and considering the price, I am surprised they would use a connector made of brass rather tha... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! Are you saying they do not perform as described? Because that is all we care about: does it sound as described? Nobody cares to see how ignorant or obnoxious certain people can be. What we care about is that it sound as described. Because if it do... | |
| VPI Scout upgades? The biggest by far, equivalent to a major table upgrade, will be to put the Scout on a Townshend Podium. Like a whole new turntable. Next, Synergistic Research PHT and ECT. Green Dream and Black Beauty PHT, used together, big increase in detail, d... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! on you. | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Speaker Cables The last month or so has kept me pretty busy. An exceptionally good power cord, Mr Silver, and another power cord Mr White, a power cord so good I can hardly even believe it, came together in one box. Then about the same time Townshend F1 speaker ... | |
| Sending a 110 lb amp to the manufacturer for cleaning/calibration. Good idea? How to ship? First I would go up to the attic or wherever you stored all your original packing. Look it over real good. Are all the cardboard corners in perfect condition? Styrofoam? All the plastic and stuff? Great. Imagine all the work getting the amp back i... | |
| My Schumann Generator has Arrived Okay but where the ---- do you get shungite and dilithium crystals, er I mean Herkimer diamonds? | |
| ...off on an adventure... Unless you were playing very loud at the time and fried a voice coil then most likely the smoke was a crossover component. A crossover is a really simple circuit, just three parts: a coil of wire called an inductor, a resistor, and a cap. The coil... | |
| Technics SL1000 MK3 (SP10 MK3) performance/value VS modern turntables? Competition will probably be the Onkk Cue, which looks to me a lot better but haven't heard and no idea what you'd be looking at in terms of upgrade cost. | |
| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? I remember back in the 90's the Wall St Journal had a column Experts vs Darts where fund managers competed against stocks picked literally by throwing darts at the newspaper. If Arizonabob were to plaster his walls with Stereophile and start throw... |
