| Are Shakti Stones effective? Did I already say they are as good as a phone book? Why yes, I did.They do look better than a phone book, which is the performance level they are competitive at. | |
| SQ impact from a tube preamp after signal leaving an AVR? You’re making some fundamentally flawed assumptions here. Its not just avrs and pre amps. The signal flowing through everything is additionally impacted when flowing through everything else. No, home theater sound does not improve after additional... | |
| Audiophile demographics? Coincidentally, far more guys are into the gal in your avatar than are gearheads. | |
| Nobsound springs - load range Granite rings like a bell. How you managed to get some and set it up and not notice, ... wait a minute. Dude the vibrations?!?! Nevermind. The dude abides. | |
| Are Shakti Stones effective? That's an insult not an argument. He would know the difference- but then that would be one thing he knows, and if there's one thing I know for sure its that he knows nothing. | |
| Tone arm holes do not line up - best way to attach TT? What do you mean? Your arm has VTA on the fly. Are you talking azimuth? Or...? Because if not what else is there?? Please note the very first thing I said was to make sure you have correct spindle to arm distance. | |
| Integrated Tube Amp Demo My only recommendation is to hold the Raven for last. From what I hear you will not want to send it back. Especially after looking at that turd of a Rogers. And that's coming from me, probably the least concerned with looks of any audiophile you w... | |
| Tone arm holes do not line up - best way to attach TT? That's the stuff. It comes thick and thin. I would get one of each. Because right now it seems insane to pay so much for tape. But then you get it and only wish you'd bought more. And then when you do go to buy more its no longer $57 its $67 or wh... | |
| Too terminate or not How do you think I can connect bare 12AWG wire behind my Croft? Fail to see the problem. Looks like a standard 3-way binding post to me. Unscrew a bit, stick the bare wire in, tighten back down. What is the problem? | |
| Seeking help on my High-End knowledge/history... She is Krissy Tetrault. Pronounced T'ay trow. Invents and makes the best tweaks on Earth. That's who she is. | |
| .2mv vs .4mv out for LOMC into 60db gain phono stage? I ran into similar going down in cartridge output. There’s really two questions, separate yet related. One is will you have enough gain? Probably. If the PL volume is linear (do not assume it is!) and the loudest you listen is only about half way ... | |
| Tone arm holes do not line up - best way to attach TT? That was my fear- very small base, combined with a lot of mass off to one side, not good for tape. As for the vibration control aspect of it, just get that tape. You can thank me later. | |
| Are Shakti Stones effective? The best most experienced dealer I ever met stayed with me one time for a couple weeks when he was moving out here to Washington. He brought a whole van full of gear, and I got to try it all. Among the many tweaks and cables and amps was a Shakti ... | |
| Is a balanced XLR cable inherently less critical than a single ended RCA one? Nothing is a different story. Except that with balanced you're paying a whole lot more for nothing in return. Aside from that though anyone says any cable anywhere isn't important is blowing smoke up your, ... well let's just say they're blowing s... | |
