| Buying used vs. New I buy used. However, only if I'm financially able to eat a complete loss if things don't work out. This usually means that I'd be willing to look at two lesser (but close in performance) pieces rather than one piece which will take up the full sav... | |
| Mitsubishi Linear Tracking Turntables I own one of Randy's LT-30s. I've had mine for over a year, it replaced an LP12, and I have a ZYX R100H on it. If you can't get ahold of Randy, email me and I'll try to help. | |
| how much to offer friend for records I'm pretty much with Jaybo. Ask him initially what amount he has in mind for each. If you're okay with it, ask if it changes with 20 or so, then fifty or so. If the amounts in his mind are fine with you, great, go pick some. If it seems high, don'... | |
| Power Conditioners? If you get something that doesn't use MOVs like Brickwall or Surgex it shouldn't wear out. I use Brickwall with my analog system and APC H10 (voltage regulation) with my HT system. I've had them both for a while without any problems. | |
| Steven Stills, "Stills Alone" I couldn't find any on GEMM, so it may indeed be rare. Well done! | |
| Doors Vinyl Box Set Defect? FrankC- I've heard(read) much of the some sentiments. Considering that originals in M- or better condition are reasonably inexpensive, it's kinda disappointing to have waited so long for digital remasters with these issues. | |
| Birthday Vinyl Happy b'day. It's my 55th birthday today and I'll be pulling out the Music Direct catalog looking for new vinyl. | |
| LP Sound Quality If you are new to vinyl, I suggest that the LP12 is not a starter kit. It might be best to get a less fussy TT and a VPI16.5 to clean your LPs. After you get better handle on your system, break out the LP12 again, have it professionally set up and... | |
| Stereophile claims about Magico And that, Avguygeorge, is to ENTERTAIN. If useful info pops out accidentally, great all the better. | |
| American made Subwoofer Art of Sound. I use the Tycus. | |
| How to explain our obsessions to the uninitiated? The explanation is in the sound. Play him something he is familiar with. Every time I make a small change (and spend more money) and my mom (she's 84) has that (now what are you doing?) look on her face, I play Sinatra at the Sands vinyl for her. ... | |
| RBH 1010 SEP Subwoofer .... any users? Comments? I had one in the past. I wanted so badly to make it work but just couldn't get it to blend without bloat no matter where I placed it in my house. Port noise was also an issue. Sorry. | |
| Cables that cost more than good loudspeakers Here's the interesting thing for me. I'll theorize that NO component or cable is completely neutral. Therefore, ALL components or cables are, to some extent, tone controls. All we are really doing is purchasing a sound which pleases us individuall... | |
| Record storage? Sam's Club has some nice bookshelves that are actually deep enough for vinyl. The shelving is adjustable and has a center wall so the weight won't warp the shelves. They are about 4' wide by 6' tall. Happy hunting. | |
