| Origin Live Cartridge Enabler I have the Origin Live Conqueror arm with Black Widow and Green Dream PHTs on a Koetsu Black Goldline and two ECTs on the Conqueror arms base. Pretty tricked out and sounds great and would consider adding this even in spite of its awful name (Enab... | |
| Amp "timing" ? Amp timing can cause speaker plodding. When this happens, advance amp timing gradually until you hear PRAT, then back off a degree or so. | |
| Clearaudio Concept ringing sound.. any advice? Recently purchased. Any chance of returning? With the checks you've done it seems pretty clear the problem is with the table itself. | |
| looking for advice to mitigate inner groove distortion Yeah lewm I also can't think of any alignment issue that puts a halo around horns. While I would like to nail down the overhang situation the halo and crescendo comment sounds more like mis-tracking to me. Adam, maybe double-check VTF and if not m... | |
| Speaker With Least Room Interaction Right. The one with the least bass will have the least bass problems.Technically, the physics is the same for all speakers and so they all interact exactly the same.The question as posed can't be answered any better without randomly guessing what ... | |
| Soundstaging and Imaging: The Delusion about The Illusion Its no delusion. Whenever I drop something small on the floor first thing I do is stop and listen for it to stop rolling around. Then I go and look and it is always right where I knew it would be by sound alone. When someone walks up to me out of ... | |
| looking for advice to mitigate inner groove distortion It sounds like you’re using one of the freebie alignment printouts?Some of those are okay for alignment only after having set overhang.How did you set overhang?Overhang must be set accurately first. Otherwise if overhang is off it will cause your ... | |
| Do any of your Rolling Stones recordings bring "Satisfaction"? A friend brought over all his Stones one time. Every single one of them sounded horrid. The worst one made my stereo sound exactly like the music was coming from the one speaker in the middle of the dash board of a 1973 Ford F-150. No kidding. Wor... | |
| Is this the real life, or just death on 2 legs? Its a good movie, but the lyric is "Is this just fantasy?"If you heard "Or just death on two legs" you might want to look for a better theater..... and stereo. | |
| Sub Woofer set up Hmmm. What about the option to set all speakers to large and sub to yes? | |
| Soundstaging and Imaging: The Delusion about The Illusion Odds of survival go way down if you can't tell from which direction the sound of the lion comes. Swap out the lion for a guitar, the ears for a microphone. How does that really change anything? Its as real as real can be. | |
| Is There a Speaker for Me/Impossible Requirements? (budget: $2000) My hunch is you will know when you hear the Kestrels. | |
| No love for 70's guitar bands? Styx Equinox was on my platter recently. Anyone hearing this as a "wall of sound" needs to quit streaming and find a good turntable hooked up to a real stereo and open their ears. Equinox was mastered by the legendary Doug Sax at what is today kno... | |
| Tight bass sub recommendations Sixty grand to spend and bought the Swarm. That's some testament. A nice outcome indeed. | |
| Will a subwoofer add depth and clarity to my system, or just bass? plga- I thought 3D sound came only from the tweeters, but it seems that long bass waves have somehow spatial information that contributes with imagin. Incredible! While we don't hear low bass frequencies as localized sounds within a sound stage... |
