Results from Beta Testers of New Formulas
I don't believe anyone asked for the 'secret formula'. In the first thread about this new product 4yanx asked what research was done concerning plasticizers. No answer was given. 
Results from Beta Testers of New Formulas
I know first hand from past e-mails with both Disc Doctor's Duane Goldman and RRL's Brian Weiotzel that they both had paid outside labs to test various vinyl formulations. Both mentioned that while it was expensive, it gave an idea of what would h... 
Good Quality Distilled Water???
I do not post often but my experience is like a lot of other people here. David, aka 4yanx, got me interested in Record Research Labs stuff by his posts and then he graciously sent me some to try. They are better than anything else I tried and wor... 
Say it aint so--- Teres quality question
I would have thought that this was settled a long time ago. 
Spindle/Bearing Lube
Thank you to everyone who responded. The dealer I bought my table from went under and I have had zero luck with ASL before. Maybe another Nottingham owner will pipe up or I guess I could ask another dealer. I think that nondetergent oil would be a... 
Sistrum or Neuance or...?
I agree with Drubin. I took nothing away from the message of Lonelynote except more marketing, defensiveness, and resentment. And I really don't have anything against Sistrum at all.

Setting up Analog In a New Room From Scratch
Thanks to all. I suppose I am left with only one question since I understand the notion of having to try things out as far as cables.Does anyone have a recommendation for locating JUST the table? I do not even care that much about CD but I would l... 
Setting up Analog In a New Room From Scratch
Dan, I am particularly obliged to you for your response as it gives me some insight on alternate table setup locations and IC advise. I'm not sure that I will ever be able to afford 6m IC's, at least not of the quailty I have in my 1m pairs.I am s... 
Setting up Analog In a New Room From Scratch
Uppermidfi, I did consider that possibility but it would entail, in that case, a long run of IC between the preamp and amp. Is this more advisable than other schemes I've mentioned? Maybe this whole thing is just a question of whether it is better... 
Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers
Part of my concern with using subs is practical. It is another connection to be made and more wire to buy. Also, I've always understood that sub placement can be tricky in a lot of rooms, especially using two. But, the right placement can work won... 
Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers
Thanks to all for the advice and those that have kept focus on considering the questions asked regarding the 3A in comparison to the 5A and what might lie between (having no interest in the 3 or 2ce).If sticking with the 3A/2wq option the choices ... 
Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers
I have to say that Sdcampbell makes a very attractive statement when it is said that less emphasis on cabinets equals more sound for the money.No speakers better for another $3K seems that there must be a big void in this price range. Do others ag... 
Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers
In response to Newbee, these are a few things I like about the 3A'a.They seem to get the soundstage and imaging right like the level of voices and positioning of instruments. But, this might be due more to positioning and placement.(?)They have ve... 
Vandersteen-like "In-between" speakers
Thanks you Marakanetz but I don't think I would want to spend another $3K to get something that might be just "no worse" than the Vandys. I'd expect definite improvement! :-)I have thought about buying my own 3A sigs. I am not one who is all that ...
