| Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? If you look up Chapter 27 in Robert Harley's Complete Guide to High End Audio you will find the section on how to determine appropriate component budget expenditures adjusted for life expectancy. Be sure to use the current edition as the actuarial... | |
| How to connect an equalizer to an integrated amp. The absolute sound review makes that sound like one pretty nice little integrated amp. What you want to go ruin it with EQ for anyway? Ditch that and get on with it.But oh well. Got to learn somehow. Disconnect the jumpers, connect pre-out to the ... | |

| A Soundsmith Re-tip Believer The sound? Dead quiet.This is because of one of Ledermann's design principles, reducing jitter by reducing mass and resonances in the stylus/cantilever/generator system. This is something he's discussed at length in videos and audio show seminars.... | |

| If this pandemic doesn't finally kill my cartridge, nothing will The old ones with underlying health issues are always the first to go. Still, sounds like you have a good case for damages.

| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Maybe that's why the Tekton subs work so well. DBA stands for distributed bass array. DBA says nothing about what or where, only that the bass is distributed among many drivers in different locations. One of the early papers even discusses four su... | |
