| Looking for a new phono preamp I'm looking forward to find out what kind of effect it will have on my system. Prediction: transformative. Mine was a revelation. Read my review. My wife did not know what I had done, or indeed if I had done anything at all, but just kept asking ... | |

| Have bookcase? No need for diffuser panels. Truth is this is the internet, where acoustic panels are explained in greater detail by more people than you can imagine. Take your snake oil, warm it up, let georgehifi know you’re available. You were made for each other. | |
| Is This even possible I am gonna go out on a limb and say you are too caught up in details. In other words - yes, I am gonna say it- you can't see the forest for the tree. | |

| The Lifespan of an LP? Thanks, millercarbon. It's all a lot more complicated than it looks, isn't it? With each incremental improvement in my system over the last few years, the quality of the source has become increasingly important. And as you have observed quality re... | |
| REW question -- judging SPL and Impulse graphs I realize that I may just have to listen to music https://youtu.be/VKcAYMb5uk4?t=8 | |
| Theoretically better to connect my subwoofer from preamp out, or from outputs on my amps? No difference. And REL is blowing smoke. Don't inhale. | |
| What is the most analytical sounding amplifier that you have heard? the Stereophile definition is the best that I know of:analytical - "Very detailed, almost to the point of excess."No, that isn't even a good definition let alone the best. I already gave you a much better one: "sterile". Like everything is there, ... |
