Synergistic Research HFT may transform your room, but they probably don't do much to improve the acoustics.Funniest thing I read here in a long time. Much as I'd love to write, just have to sit back and revel in the absurdity. Thanks. Made my day. | |
| 2.2 Channel System Processor Suggestions My system is pure audiophile stereo with a 9 foot screen for the best movie sound I ever heard. Well the 5 sub distributed bass array does help a bit.Anyway, what I do is send the video straight from the source to the projector via HDMI, and the s... | |

If you’re looking for simplistic old school acoustic treatment you can do every bit as good as GIK only faster and for a tiny fraction of the cost stretching whatever fabric you like over Owens Corning acoustic panel.

| How many times have you ... That makes the touting of “original master tapes” as the source of dubious value except to the hot stamper crowd. The lack of talent or technique in the pressing is keeping us from original copy quality which is readily available regardless of ... | |

| Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only) Little pieces of this puzzle keep coming in. I can’t afford and don’t have the equipment to drive a subwoofer...but would a more full range (i.e. floor standing) speaker be a better choice when I do decide to upgrade next? When the subject is ... | |
| How many times have you ... That’s exactly what they do. Its natural to assume that pressing a record is so perfect a process that what you get is down to the quality of the master tape used. Natural, but wrong. Not even close. In spite of buying lots of MFSL and other "audi... | |
| Speaker-ish related question (Crates) Completely disassembled mine lay flat and take up little attic space. But its really just plywood and maybe some fasteners. Since you can't store, take pictures and measurements, save as much of fasteners and padding as you can, and toss the rest.... | |

| Turntable recommendations Kuzma table, Origin Live arm, whichever combination of models you can afford. $4k table, $5k arm, etc. How do you like your Soundsmith? Moving iron seems the way to go. | |

| Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only) Well you've certainly taken all the right steps to narrow it down, so good on you. With a lot of the most likely culprits eliminated we are down to only a very few good options left. One being, its perfectly normal flutter, you're just not used to... |
