| Do you like your speakers aimed directly at each ear or.... I like my speakers mounted on gimbals that swivel to keep them constantly aimed .... but I can't tell you where then you would copy it and I wouldn't have the best stereo in the world any more. | |
| Shipping co. recommendations (CHI -> SF) Fourteen years at Airborne Express here. Shipping is way more technical than you seem to know. There is about as much chance of telling you how to ship these without knowing weight and dimensions as telling you where to put them to sound good when... | |
| Why no Virtual System pics?? Dunno about others, but for me it took someone bugging me. After a year or so a few people were like yeah so where’s your system? Which I had to admit they had a point. So after a lot of dusting and cleaning and relocating at least some of the acc... | |
| WAF -- Women. You can't live with em, you can't ... well okay let's just leave it at that. | |
| What's your favorite lyric from a song? The Rutles, All You Need is Lunch | |
| To clean or not to clean? If you think your records look clean, try looking at them with a LED headlamp. You might want to be sitting down. | |
| cable connection Thankfully a choice I will never have to make, having been smart enough my whole career to run integrated amps. But if I ever did go separates I would like to think I'd be smart enough to know the best cable goes between the pre and power. That wa... | |
| Help with upgrade bug... That is of course Tekton Double Impact or Moab range. $5k will get you Moabs like mine with a whole bunch of upgrades bringing it very close to Ulfberht level performance. Mine are in the ordering/building stages and should be here in a week or th... | |
| Youngsters these days. "Ok boomer" is a dismissive term of derision used by kids who have been programmed by our public schools to find wisdom and eternal truths incomprehensibly difficult to understand. He rents, you own. He consumes experiences, you accumulate wealth... | |
| How to connect multiple sets of speakers? Search series and parallel resistance. If you know the ohms of each speaker then you'll be able to use the formula to figure out what combination will get you the total impedance you want, up around 8 to 16 ohms. Or at least up to 4. You may have ... | |
| Raven or Hegel? Its comments like these that have Raven at the top of my list for my next amp. Actually Raven is the list. | |
| Synergistic UEF Blue v. Cerious Graphene Matrix Power v. Mad Scientist Audio Nitro Nano For your priorities probably not SR. They will give you great bass slam but maybe too balanced a presentation. Usually when people talk transient speed its code for they like things tipped up and/or with attack transients hyped out of proportion t... | |
| Looking to upgrade my 3-way towers Yeah, Tekton Double Impacts will be easier to drive, more efficient, play louder, much more refined, and almost universally acclaimed to compete with $10k speakers. Listen to this guy at 5:50 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RxRTFx6Cd0&t=627sO... | |
| Is VTA and SRA the same thing? Yeah Ledermann covers it all. He somehow manages the seemingly impossible feat of being even more long winded than me. He on the other hand is infinitely more interesting. And experienced. | |
| What Power isolation transformer or conditioner similar to Topaz My system was originally powered off a normal house circuit. Then a dedicated direct line. Then that was changed from 120V to 240V with a step down transformer. Along the way, several power conditioners were used. Even more were tried, or compared... |
