| How do you attach cones/feet/etc to components? I've always used a little blob of Mortite. It's kind of like Blu-Tak, but a lot cheaper. I have been using it for years on my Black Diamond Racing cones with excellent results.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortite_putty | |
| Is the V.P.I. Traveler made in China It's made in Cliffwood, New Jersey. Pretty USA to me. | |
| Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it? I have been using Acme Audio Labs fuses for several years now. I have compared them to my Furutech and HiFi Tuning fuses and heard absolutely no difference. There was a noticeable difference between any of these and the stock fuses, but not betwee... | |
| Mythologies on MoFi - Something wrong? ? Mrmitch...the Santana LP you have is NOT a Silver Series. MOFI hasn't released any Santana titles on the Silver label.It has to be a Gain 2. My copy is fine. It's a pretty low serial number, but doesn't sound as you describe.Also, most of the Silv... | |
| Snell K/II V Information I was a Snell dealer for a long time, (back in the day) and I'm pretty sure the "V" stood for video as in "shielded" for video applications. Same speaker, but was able to be used close(r) to a TV without interference. | |
| I heard Emotive bought Bob Carvers tube company Emotive and Emotiva are completely different companies. Emotiva has acquired Carver.I have tried a couple of Emotiva amps and they were awful. Hopefully this won't ruin a pretty decent tube product? | |

| How do I use this speaker cable??? Those are not normal tri-wire cables. They just added the jumpers off of the positive and negative plugs. Not sure I've ever seen it done that way.If the attached bananas, (on the amp side) are too big, just remove them and use the bare wire or re... | |
| Mythologies on MoFi - Something wrong? ? My copy of this MOFI vinyl is excellent, however I do NOT have any other copy/format to compare it to. This is the only one I have listened to. I sure didn't think there was anything out of the ordinary with this pressing? | |
| VPI cartridge install f/phase inverting pre Dover...thanks for info. I did not know this. I was wondering how a line stage and phono stage in the same chassis, using the same power supply, could do this. | |
| VPI cartridge install f/phase inverting pre Jmcgrogan2...according to the SLP98 owner's manual, BOTH the line and phono are inverting? I used to own this preamp with phono and never recalled this difference. That's why I looked at the manual.From the manual, (page 11):Amplifier Speaker Co... | |
| VPI cartridge install f/phase inverting pre I've never seen or heard of a preamp with a built-in phono stage, where ONLY the phono stage inverts phase? Usually it's all or none, but maybe they do exist? | |
