Let's see if it can punish the subs like a Billie Eilish album. Funny. One guy had me play some Billie Eilish for him. Never heard it before. Freaking insane bass. Then he goes and says he's not used to hearing that much bass! Well, me neither! lol! 
Has "politically correct" killed the used audio market?
I recently got my flu shot, which was advocated for quite fervently by health officials in an attempt to keep the strain on the medical system a minimum in preparation for this wave we are in. Right.  Money couldn't have anything to do with it.... 
Dual subs and or speaker uograde
Won't need to spend anywhere near $15k but go for it if you must. Won't need to though because when it comes to bass more is better than better. In other words don't buy one or two subs with your $15k, buy three or four.  Hard to believe I know bu... 
DIY Stylus Guard Help
What lewm said. Especially since its going off for rebuild. If they come with a stylus guard, it should come back with a stylus guard- a real one not the one you cobbled and taped together. 
Dedicated Music Room Recessed Lighting (High Hats)?
Mine never rattle, and with 5 subs there's enough bass to rattle my freaking projector screen! If you're truly worried, go to each one, tap tap tap it real good, and you will find out real fast if it rattles. My bigger concern would be each can is... 
Audio envy - dang!
Clarity is clean and clear. Being able to easily hear and delineate different threads or lines of music. Each individual voice in a chorus for example. Presence is one aspect of clarity, primarily in the upper registers, and especially in the fine... 
Has "politically correct" killed the used audio market?
Wow. Even worse than our usual blather.Stubborn facts for the stubborn people, no one has refuted the fact the so-called pandemic has no excess deaths. If this is killing so many people then why doesn’t it show up in independently verifiable stati... 
What's my ideal music server? Read and recommend please
Had to be fast to catch that one. 
How eclectic is your taste in music?
Amen. Except I would replace "offend" with "entertain". ;) 
Need help
If Herbies will work, great. I have my doubts but you never know. What definitely will work is a two-pronged approach: springs under speakers (not just the subs) with springs and added mass under the turntable. I was surprised at the improvement p... 
Fidelity Research FR64s Headshell dilemma
No pivoted arm can reproduce the soundstage transparency and accuracy of a linear tracker That’s quite a claim! What arms have you used to test that belief? In particular, I’d be interested in which 12-inch arms you’ve tried.It’s not a claim, it i... 
REVEL performa3 f208 or TEKTON Moab
So much nonsense. All in ignorance. Stunning, off the charts ignorance. Come by and hear. Heck just read the comments on my system page. From those who actually heard Moabs, driven by 50 tube watts. Integrated. Slaughtered. Good one. Takes me back... 
What Was Your Favorite “Game Changer” Moment?
Actually now that I think about it this right here is my favorite game changer. The world wide web. Before this all we had was Stereophile on dead tree. Stereophile of course had massive publishing costs that had to be covered somehow. So they had... 
Okay, How Important Is Speaker Break In? (Dynaudio Contour 60i)
The normal progression is for cold and new to be harsh and grainy, with most of the dynamics and extension but little of the body and harmonic fullness. This fills in over time, and usually with varying amounts of improved extension at both ends, ... 
An old phrase which, I believe, may be timely...
I bought a genuine Model 3 Tesla off Craig's List. Got a great price too. Can you imagine, only the third car ever made by the man himself, Nikola Tesla! They say he was ahead of his time and I believe it. This thing looks like it was made yesterd...
