| whathifi - viinyl revenue overtakes cds for the first time since 1986 I'm sure streaming is responsible for the bottom dropping out of the CD market i.e. as opposed to a surge in vinyl sales Vinyl sales have been growing strong, in double-digits for decades. CD sales have been stagnant to declining. There was no su... | |
| Survey: HiFi System Priorities Throw the list in a blender, feed it to a cow, come back the next day and guess what you got then? Right. Same as now. Only pure. | |
| Are you troubled by the imaging of a symphony orchestra? I frequently enjoyed going to the Symphony and sitting close.It is hard to get that picture out of my mind. Indeed. Hardly anyone does recordings the way it would take to recreate that sound. All the classical orchestra recordings I ever heard s... | |
| Would like clarification The rule is if they fit together they can be used together. Remember that one simple rule it works with everything. | |
| Townshend Audio Podiums: The Full Review That is one of the more consistent improvements I have heard across different uses. No matter what else happens the bass gets tighter, with greater slam or impact and more articulate. It is hard to describe because sometimes it feels like more bas... | |
| Schumann Resonator sokogear- I think that is what MillerCarbon does. He knows in theory it improves the sound and does whatever he can in that regard. It's a free country. I like to justify any expenditure. I find it hard to beleive he can hear every single thing... | |
| Schumann Resonator larryh111- First, Schumann resonance is an electromagnetic field not an acoustic signal. Second the amplitude of the field is on the order of 1 picotesla and can only be detected with highly sensitive antennas and instruments. The magneti... | |
| Experience with HFTs sokogear-So you guys don’t use acoustic panels or bass traps and use the HFTs instead of them? Don't know about others but with me it's not either/or it's both. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367This room is far from perfect, there's lots... | |
| Ac power bick wall filter? Every wire everywhere is an antenna collecting radio frequency radiation. Also every device connected to the power grid is connected to every other device on the grid. Literally connected. Think about it. Hardly any of these connected devices ar... | |
| Straight out of the box doesn't work. PL puts on a good show but bottom line: made in China. From the way you describe it, "some of the tubes were a little crooked" sounds like they ship with tubes installed. You're new so won't know this is a bad idea. If you ever have to ship this p... | |
| Here is all my gear. What's the best combo? Keep the Dual and the PL. Sell the rest to buy Koetsu, Herron VTPH2A, Tekton Moabs, Townshend Pods and Podiums, a dozen Schumann generators, and with whatever's left get as much HFT, ECT, PHT and especially TDF as you can. | |
| Synergistic Research ECT Thanks 2gskaizen, good to hear. To be honest, getting a lot of that lately and it is good to hear. The more people with great systems the more people hear great systems and the more people want to have their own great systems, is the way I look at... | |
| Acoustic Blanket for TV One Owens Corning 703 panel 2'x3'x1" will do the job, cost little, and be light as a feather. You may want to cover it with some fabric. But it will be so light and easily moveable, you could also just hide it behind the TV and only hang it in fro... | |
| Townshend Audio Podiums: The Full Review mitch2:I too have come to appreciate the benefit of springs under my speakers and electronic gear. Last year, I was able to find appropriately sized springs to support my heavy speakers, subs, monoblock amplifiers, and server. After reading about ... | |
