| Turntable versus tonearm versus cartridge: which is MOST important? Had the opportunity to directly compare it in my system to a Clearaudio Performance DC/Satisfy Carbon arm/Lyra Delos cartridge. Total cost around $7K.The latter was better in most parameters especially with respect to dynamics, detail, resolu... | |
| Recommended isolation for a Vincent Audio CD-S7 Tube cd player You’re welcome. What you want is Townshend Pods. Get them sized for the weight of your CDP. Not only will this end your skips, it will produce a very impressive improvement in sound quality. If Pods are too rich then drop down to Nobsound springs.... | |
| Congratulations (yet again!) to Duke!! Yes indeed very well deserved. This subwoofer system is so good it goes beyond providing merely "better bass" like you would get with "a sub". It really is transformative. But maybe even better is that it is one of the few things where you can get... | |
| The Most Philosophical Song You Ever Heard There’s booze in the blender, and soon it will render, that frozen concoction that helps me hang on, is looking better and better. It does make me wonder though about the philosophical ramifications. If we could choose, would we all go to Marg... | |
| How to isloate turntable motor from making a hum You know now that I think of it, at the level of these components what I would do is first test with aluminum foil. Wrap the motor, and fold a sheet for between the table and preamp. Then if that works upgrade the whole thing with some Krissy mats... | |
| How many watts?? Sorry, but the speaker manufacturers and hi-fi world in general have fed you so full of irrelevant BS it is easier to just ask, what is that you have now, and what are you trying to do? | |
| How to isloate turntable motor from making a hum Never a good idea to stack like that, but we gotta do what we gotta do. Electric motors make electric fields. Preamps are especially vulnerable, phono stages even more so. Distance is your best protection. If you can rearrange to move the preamp l... | |
| More proof that music is not just an aural sensation. Well, the neighbors high school daughter called Monday night to ask if I would please turn the music down when I was testing my system out to get the over-under on db levels. Dead quite, with the AC off, 42.1 db. And then the loudest my system wil... | |
| If Power Cords Don't Matter... 4 ga is stranded wire. Snip off strands until what is left will fit, and tighten down. | |
| The Most Philosophical Song You Ever Heard Margaritaville is a philosophical examination of the meaning of life. Time in a Bottle is Jim Croce exploring the meaning of eternal love in a temporal world. The Cheesburger is an eclectic discussion on the illusion of choice. Please try and stay... | |
| The Most Philosophical Song You Ever Heard If it’s not too late, please, please can I make it a CHEESE burger No problem. https://youtu.be/puJePACBoIo?t=117 | |
| Turntable versus tonearm versus cartridge: which is MOST important? In the end, the firing squad would be a kindness. A mercy killing. https://youtu.be/H59iOnYAsY0?t=24 | |
| Earwax! If you would, please clearly describe exactly what it was like before and after, and mail it along with your specimen to Millercarbon's Ear Wax Museum, Earie, PA. | |

| LED dimmable lights in audio room? The best lighting is of course the lava lamp. |
