how long can you leave a CDP on 'pause'? I don't know the answer: is the motor spinning when the CDP is on pause? | |
how long can you leave a CDP on 'pause'? presumably, if the motor is working, that would shorten its lifespan - especially if I left it on pause for hours at a time. | |
Why can't all/most recordings be this good? not everyone's cup of tea (it's 'artsy'), but Laurie Anderson's 'Life on a String' (nonesuch) is one of my favorite 'demo' CDs - astonishing sound for 'redbook'. | |
Use of TV antenna for Tuner it should work just fine. even better if it has a rotor to adjust for different stations. you might check its grounding if you're in an area with lots of lightning. | |
What gives? CD’s, Solid State? you might try leaving the CD player on repeat for a day, let it rest a day, then do it again, until you've logged something like 200 hours. it might make a big difference. also: are you leaving the CD player on all the time? (some CDPs don't need ... | |
Vibraphone recommendations? not 'newer', but have you checked out Walt Dickerson? ('to my queen' may be my favorite of his) | |

So, What is the Verdict on the Beatles Box Sets? I'm sure the 48/192 downloads they'll be selling in a few years will smoke the current CDs. my cynical self sees this as marketing: the boomers, the biggest market for the Beatles, are good for one last milking (as in buying expensive box sets) be... | |
other speaker cable, what to buy if you're happy with what you have, why not just shorten them? | |
I would like some feedback on a int. amp rogue cronus! | |
Stylus wear question... the only way to tell is to look at the stylus under a microscope - wear that may be damaging your LPs could easily be inaudible. | |
How to listen to the Beatles re-releases? my $0.02: the best albums are Rubber Soul, Revolver, Abbey Road, the White Album, Let It Be. the next 'tier' is Help and A Hard Day's Night. the real early stuff is fun and all, but nowhere near the middle and later periods. Anthologies 2 & 3 ... | |
Need cartridge advice for an LP12 I have an LP12/ekos/lingo setup and a CAT pre. I have used several Benz cartridges and liked them all. I currently have a 'S M' and it's my favorite so far. probably a bit over your budget though... |
