| VPI Magic Brick threads deleted It looked like spamIt was abusive towards another memberIt depicts explicit and/or violent contentIt contains profanityDid it? No. Not at all. Therefore, removing it only makes my point about how despicable the whole thing really is. | |
| VPI Magic Brick threads deleted Yeah, so you can read the form letter they send everyone, the one that applies to nothing and everything. They link to threads they themselves deleted. Of course they did. They remove posts for no good reason. They leave up posts that truly do vio... | |
| Nobsound springs - load range Reading that first post all I could think, imagine how much better that guys system would sound if he put all that effort into trying springs and LISTENING to them instead of wasting it measuring dead weight.Oh well. Maybe next time....?Under larg... | |
| LP's: the measure of off-centre record spindle holes ? Yes. The consensus is runout should be zero.Also if its not some will hear it, some will not.Also some will complain regardless of whether they hear it or not.Yet another consensus, some will complain while simultaneously clearly saying they don’t... | |
| Vibration Control and the Townshend Audio Seismic Pods Already said Nobsound springs at about $35 are the cheap way to go. Very, very good- but Townshend beats them hands down. So yes a lot more money- but a whole lot better too. Its still a very good value.Also when you actually get one its apparent ... | |
| Making phono resistance plugs Any RCA, solder resistor inside, screw the cover back on, connect, and listen. Don't overthink it. Use cheap until you find the right value, then try boutique if you want. | |
| A blessing? Or a curse? Problem being, anyone can read the OP, and then read everything since, and it is clear (to those who can read and comprehend the English language) that this is not at all about anyone's skill of hearing or lack thereof. The question is something d... | |
| A blessing? Or a curse? mahler123, Its a serious question. oldhvymec gets it. Assume, for the sake of the argument, that when you hear something really good you are able to remember and carry with you that memory. So that later on when you hear something else you are ab... | |
| Synergistic Research PHT- all of 'em! And then some! Yeah, they are so tiny you practically need tweezers to handle them, so how can they possibly do anything? Yet they do. A lot. Amazing. You're the third or fourth one to say how much they like that combo. Thanks! | |
| Capped off? On the one hand I know a good deal about what and how. I know for example an otherwise perfectly ordinary plug can be transformed into something remarkable simply by putting a dab of goo on it. I know for example there is a reason for the little b... | |
| 2channel vs surround listening Surround sounds good in the same way you hear anything new that stands out and gets your attention and makes you go wow that's new. Only just like everything else like that its only so long until you get tired of the sparkly new and then you're st... | |
| Capped off? I don't know about Cardas, but if you were using the old PPT caps there would be no doubt. The reduction in noise, improvement in clarity, and image focus, is obvious and easy to hear. That's the problem with these things. Tweaks, I mean. Someone ... | |
| Hi-Pass Filter Into Amp 100-120 is too high, should be more like 80. Also its much better to run the mains full range. There's nil to be gained, all the talk is just that, talk. On the other hand there is much to be lost. The main factor in good bass response is lots of ... | |
| Vibration Control and the Townshend Audio Seismic Pods I have 5 subs so to save money they have Nobsound springs. Townshend Pods are a whole other level, totally worth it under amps and speakers. They have them listed right now https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa6d18-townshend-audio-seismic-isolati... | |
