| GRAHAM 1.5 Ouch. I had a 1.5. If you can't find one they can still be aligned the usual way. | |
| Rare magnetism found in the world's strongest material This has a lot to do with how the stuff I can't tell you about makes my system sound so doggone good. But I can't tell you about it. So you'll just have to keep reading these indecipherable basic research articles. That don't really tell you anyth... | |
| has anyone tried chinese cables? I tried them all. Very good. Only problem, an hour later I wanted more. | |
| Detecting differences among cables Again, its all down to listening skills. For example, for years (1973 to roughly 1985 or so) I was absolutely convinced there's no way cables can make any difference. Not interconnects, not speaker cables. Certainly not power cords. Just no way! ... | |
| Projector Power Cords Good question. First tried one near the HDMI input on the projector. Nothing. Nada. Which was a surprise, as by now they had worked great everywhere else. So I pulled out the Synergistic placement guide. Ha! Says to place ECT near the connector on... | |
| Help with TT ideas for my first TT kro77, With analog there will be noise. Period. There’s things you can do to reduce it, but don’t try and put legs on a snake. All we really can do is what we really can do: play clean records, with a clean stylus, and hope for the best. A huge am... | |
| How many AudiogoNers are amateur chefs? Chef? Please. I am something far less pretentious, and far more useful. I am a cook. It don't look pretty. But it tastes so good, and without a shopping list, from whatever's in the pantry and the fridge. That's a cook. | |
| Tweaks you got rid of because they were not effective (enough)? Not that effective? Too many cones and footers to recall, let alone list.Probably the most over-priced over-hyped is the Shakti Stone. With others, cost-effectiveness is everything. Ordinary laundry anti-static spray doesn't make a big difference... | |
| Reviews on JungSon amp/preamp combo: JA-1/JA-99C I’ve had a few things from Jungson, all purchased years ago so maybe they have changed. But my experience with all of it was bad enough there’s no way I would ever buy anything from them again. That goes even if they were made in the USA. Once you... | |
| Speaker repair technical question Depending on the speaker and crossover, when you remove a driver it breaks the circuit and that's why there's no sound. You can test this. With the driver removed and a signal (music, white noise) playing take the wires that went to the removed dr... | |
| Projector Power Cords It will. Probably. Running mine through the conditioner sure helped. Wasn't able to upgrade the cord as it needs to be small and flexible. A bigger improvement than the conditioner was using a Synergistic Research ECT, that made the video noticeab... | |
| Just added full LP playback First fix VTA, as DeKay is probably right. As you lower it down the sound will become more and more balanced. You will know you have gone too far when you start to lose top end detail and the bass and overall sound becomes too warm and round.Then ... | |
| Spec help - three phono stages All that matters technically is your cartridge type (MM vs MC) and output. | |
| Problem with phono stage Is the noise you're hearing proportional to the improvement in detail? | |
| turntable recommendations First I would work on what you have. As good as the Volare/OL/ML combo would be you would be surprised how close to that you could get with four Nobsound springs and a sheet of fO.q tape.Then also at that particular price point I would be looking ... |
