Subwoofer insight.
One of those posts that sounds really technical and plausible... only it just isn’t so. There’s more going on than is dreamt of in your simple techno world, elliott. In the real world all these extra circuits and wires you need, they all diminish ... 
What should I choose??
I can just about guarantee its the only lava lamp in the entire history of lava lamps to be used on a Black Diamond Racing Shelf. As a matter of fact, make that TWO Black Diamond Racing Shelfs, one (defunct) cartridge demagnetizer and one Teres Mo... 
What's the best isolation system?
Exactly. What I been sayin'. Vibration inherent in the component. The task is control. Not isolation. 
Best Tonearm and Cartridge for 4K or under for restored Garrard 301
But not quite sure why Miller even posting here as he is a confirmed idler drive hater? At the risk of making the obvious mistake of thinking logic has anything to do with an uberwaltz post, having never said even one word one way or the othe... 
What should I choose??
 Please, I don't need to be told to buy amps or speakers other then the ones I am asking about as I am a big fan of my system. In that case then you should not be buying amps or speakers at all, since either one is bound to change the system you ... 
Gain on preamplifier
Its not necessary to get anywhere near that technical. All you need to know is gain is not measured in volts, its measured in dB. And output voltage is not measured in dB, its measured in volts. Presumably they used the right numbers, but in the w... 
Tekton 4-10 Subwoofer
Not surprised to hear these are great subs. They have three things going for them: 1) Four drivers. Four spread out beats one, every time. 2) High compliance. At least I think that is the word for it. When you tap on the driver it moves easily. an... 
Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard
Did the service manual indicate the correct fuse direction? Might have been switched. 
Power/Current: How much is realistic?
Why? Is there something wrong with them? The comment was as usual provocative, specifically to provoke thought. You said, Rebuilding my system, Just got a pair Martin Logan 13A, B212. Just looking for insight on how much power/ currentwould be e... 
Hot wiring headphone cables directly inside the earcup
First off, sorry about the Silver Dragons. I have those. Not that great for the money, and even with careful handling the insulator cracks and there goes your cable. Their customer service is beyond crap. But we deal the hand we're dealt. Hot wire... 
So many drivers.....better sound or just more sound?
instead why not make a reasoned argument for breakup in the passband as self appointed advocate of the “reigning champion” ?Because hearing imposes no other obligation on us than to describe as accurately as possible what it is that we are hearing... 
Best Tonearm and Cartridge for 4K or under for restored Garrard 301
Can you pls elaborate on the One continuous wire from cartridge clip to RCAs..  I use RCA cable from back of the TT to PPA990. Yeah that's what you want to avoid, the interconnect between the table and the phono stage. What you want is an arm wi... 
Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard
Or you could throw it from a great height onto a trampoline. Or hey I know, shoot it with a sniper rifle from a mile away! If you do this remember, one camera and mic on the rifle, another high speed on the NAD.  Or wait! Even better! Hook it up w... 
Revel f208, dead center image but everything jumbled up?
The image is pretty dead center which is great and I like the vocals, it’s lifelike. The bass is pretty good as well as the HF. However, since the image is dead center, I am not feeling the sound stage. It feels like drummer, vocalist, bassist... 
A reappearance of Black Diamond Racing?
I have these everywhere. Mine are the original rectangular version. Did you get those? Or the newer ones with the curves? https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 Do you have Pucks or Round Things? Or will you be using them with Cones?
