| Spikes versus Rubber on wood floor? On my hardwood floors I tried most of the suggestions listed here. What I found worked best for me and my floor was to use the small clear soft plastic (Home Depot or Lowe's) furniture floor protectors. Along with the sand in the bottom, they don'... | |
| Warm speakers? My Tannoy Revolution 3's have been compared to your Kestrals in some mags in the past. I'm using my Tannoy's in a room 17X35. They're being pushed by an HK 730. They could use a bit more bottom impact, but otherwise they fill the room fine. Take y... | |
| Good Value & Performance FLEXIBLE Power Cable? Some manufacturers will offer a right angle plug. I used to have one by Voodoo Cable. Otherwise Blue Circle is quite flexible and I use one with my B&K. | |
| The best bookshelfs What brand are your front three? | |
| Can you be an audiophile if ... So you want to be an audiophile eh? Here's a secret. The last real one died in 1947 (no one even knew his name). People on this forum know this but work hard to keep the myth alive. Shhhh. don't tell anybody else. | |
| Marshall Tucker band on vinyl? The greatest hits lp sounds pretty good. Mine's in regular rotation. Live albums are usually a distinctly different animal from studio versions. If I could get a sealed hits, I would. | |
| Special female RCA jacks If such an animal exists, Stuart at Vampire wire would know. Call Sound Connections and ask him. | |
| Vintage systems- anyone else? I forgot to mention that I have a vintage Mitsubishi LT-30 linear turntable on the way. | |
| Vintage systems- anyone else? My main 2-channel system is a Harmon Kardon HK 730 twin being fed by a Linn LP 12. Although my speakers are newer Tannoy Rev 3's, I'm looking for some older Tannoys or Infinity "Q" series. | |
| Voltage Stabilizer, Power Conditioner, or both After using Monster (which constricted the sound) and Powervar, I now use an APC h15 (the s15 battery-backup one was Stereophile recommeded). At this point, I can't say enough good things about it. It has significant surge protection, isolated out... | |
| Best Budget Rig sub $600 I helped my cousin match that same receiver with Athena speakers. If you can find some Tannoy MX series speakers, they would be a good pickup. Lots of good value price/performance cables available. | |
| Speaker Cable-The Best of the Cheap? I have 20ft runs of Vampire Wire continuous cast(some companies market it as "single crystal") copper 12 ga. They are two separate cables(1 red, 1 black). The quality of the copper is substantially better than Monster and many other cables. Call S... | |
| Budget Best: MAS , Reality, Element, LAT, PNF? I will heartily recommend MAS cable. I use the Digital Reference, the Gray Silver as a sub cable and the Signatures as I/C's. These are excellent sounding cables at very reasonable prices and Stu is great to talk with. |
