| What do you say to your audiophile friends who say you just listen to your equipment more Its a fascinating subject, Mike. So many times I’ve caught myself being carried away by the music .... in the grocery store... So its the music, much more than the system.But we want a good system, and this just does not ever happen by accident. E... | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies Solid state???! Gad! I'll wait for the tube version, thanks. | |
| Everything a crossover has to do ... In my continuing efforts to encourage informed dialogue, I want to talk about how much a speaker crossover has to achieve, sometimes simultaneously. "Sometimes"? | |
| How to treat my room? You do know this is a subject worthy of a couple volumes of books, right? Recording, book one. Microphones, book two. Noise, book three. Acoustics, four. Speaker placement and playback system, five.But you're on a budget. So first I would get some... | |
| "Matching" of dual triode tubes - how close? Honestly never tried the exact comparisons you're talking about. Always used matched tubes. Well, not always. Occasionally something happens, one goes bad, and instead of swapping out the whole set I run a spare. Over the years this has probably h... | |
| Phonostage Advice Interesting I have a M&K Realtime LP and when I play it, it appears to be clipping. I thought the singer was over driving the Mic. Could it be my Pre?? I had a friend over one time swore Holly Cole was overdriving the mic. Or tape. Whatever... | |

As reubent already pointed out this is not the kind of thing audiophiles say. But, its a serious question because its something audiophile... | |
| Quad Tube Rolling Sorry, can't help myself, because for me all questions of this nature translate as "is blah blah blah the best use of my $x?"Because, if its literally a question of "will I hear a difference?" then yes, you will. There is always a difference. Ther... | |
| Another NOOB Question - Surround Sound & Amplifiers Outdoor sound is a totally different animal from in room sound. Because: no walls! No walls equals no bass reinforcement equals no bass. Infinite outdoor volume simply swallows up whatever sound you try and pump into it.The first approach to mitig... | |
| Phonostage Advice As good as the Modwright stuff tends to be still its just very hard to do as well as in a stand alone unit. Basically, it breaks down into the advantage of the stand alone unit in having its own dedicated power supply combined with the advantage o... | |
| Marantz 6300 horrible buzzing noise + no audio! Note! I replaced the capacitor from the board too. Any ideas what it could be? I've got one. Can't quite put my finger on it.... it worked before the cap... doesn't work after the cap.... dang this is a hard one.... | |
| If I were to replace my VPI Airies1 with a 4k or so budget? Tone arms can always be upgraded, and to just about any arm, only depending on how willing you are to do (or pay for) the work, and modify the existing table. Which depending on the arm in question might be surprisingly easy or near impossibly har... | |
| Do I need isolation footers for my components if I'm already using an isolation rack? What rack are you using??Mine. I would call it the Miller Carbon like my turntable but its mostly concrete so I just call it mine: Modular design solid concrete shelves with built-in sand beds, bolted to ABS concrete filled columns, topped with ... | |
