| The psychological factor hilarious MillerCarbon. You guy’s are forgetting the cartridge output, phono stage gain setting, etc., plus if you have a remote control with the volume, of course the knob doesn’t move when you raise the volume on the remote. Yeah, its one of the... | |

| Springs under turntable You're welcome. And good to know. But I was talking about the spring setup mitch2 is using on his system page. | |

| More money toward better speakers or a better DAC? I say pick the best DAC you can afford. Because Lord knows they hold their value for so long. | |
| Springs under turntable Actually all concrete does is alter, not eliminate, vibration. I'll get around to shoring up under things. Its on the list. But its a long list. Still need to finish the Spring Thing, add springs under the rest of the subs, and amps, and suspend ... | |

| Never Owned a Tube Amp and Want Advice My expectation is that a tube amp will improve the imaging, layered sound stage, and sense of aliveness I think I hear when the treble gets better detail without sibilance. Right. Should be fine. Only slight concern is when you say the McCorm... | |
| Pink Floyd and Weed My headphone playback is through a modified Musical Fidelity Amp Modified, how? Resistor across the output to drop the voltage? Maybe another one in parallel? Maybe values that would be fine for a high impedance low load IEC but runs out of gas t... | |
| Springs under turntable indrenilsen and mitch2, Rubber bands under cables work about as well as springs under components. I stretched a rubber band around a Cable Elevator so the cable sits on the rubber band. Its hard get a good camera angle to show this but that's what... | |
