| You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which? Has light humor left the planet during the previous 4 years of total insanity?Eight months. It only feels like 4 years. | |
| How important is the pre-amp? WOW mikelavigne ! You’re in rarified air, or rather the stratosphere. Actually no, just a few miles outside North Bend, way below Snoqualmie Pass, not even 1200 ft, well within the troposphere. | |
| Carpet Killed High Frequencies In My Music Listening Area Just looking at your components, there is no way that highs are faint and dull. Just no way. Other than compared to what you had before. My bet is you went from way too bright and reflective a room to about right, and haven't adjusted yet to the f... | |

| Adding a Turntable Mat I wouldn't mess around with the mat but there are quite a few budget tweaks that I know from experience will noticeably improve that table. First of all check the bearing. Everything from back then is old enough for bearing lube to go dry so clean... | |

| Owning the speakers you dreamed of 20 years ago Funny thread, I sold the speakers I dreamed of 20 years ago and technology has advanced so much the ones I have now are better than anything else I've heard even though costing less than the 20 years ago ones. Even less still in inflation adjusted... | |
| What angle should I set the VTA on my VPI turntable? The "tone control" aspect is once again putting the focus on only the most gross, crude, entry-level aspect of VTA adjustment. The idea of adjusting according to some table of record thicknesses is equally fruitless. Either put in the time and eff... | |
