| Tightening loudspeakers screws... Which manufacturers recommend leaving the screws loose?I've always thought you should regularly tighten the screws for best performance. I didn't know this differed by manufacturer. Examples? | |
| Why does my Rotel cd player skip? Since you've cleaned the lens I suggest checking the laser sled for congealed or dried out lubricant. That can easily be cleaned and regreased. A sixteen year old player is pretty ancient. I wouldn't put alot of money into repair. It was a good pl... | |
| Upgrade from Vandy 2CE sigs to the sigs 2 or 3a If you're going to bother to upgrade go to the 3. It is asignificant upgrad in scale and bass performance. Going between the 2s is more of an incremental move. | |
| Which is best amp, Mccormack 125, Belles 150 or OEM, depending on room size and volume level either would be OK with the Maggie or ML. I prefer more power myself.I don't think either would be a good match for the Apogee which represents a difficult load. | |
| Which is best amp, Mccormack 125, Belles 150 or The McCormack and Belles are both excellent. Can't go wrong with either. I don't know the Vincent. | |
| Directional interconnect cables I don't understand either but people hear what they hear and believe what they believe. The one thing I've learned is, apparently, the directional arrows don't always mean that cables should be installed in the direction of music flow which is int... | |
| Spades or bananas connectors? Don s, just pass them by and you won't get frustated and bored. :) | |
| Adcom GFP 750: why spend more? Both the DAC and amp are excellent. I suspect they are a nice sounding combination with the Adcom. You can get better but it is going to cost even buying used. Enjoy. | |
| Spades or bananas connectors? I prefer bananas because of the convenience. I can't speak to which is technically better but I do know I have never heard a difference in sound between bananas and spades. | |
| Adcom GFP 750: why spend more? Not everyone likes a truly neutral sound. Different preamps can and do provide presentations that stray from neutral (warmer or cooler) and better match with the rest of their system. One size doesn't fit all. | |
| Directional interconnect cables Rodman99999, I spent thirty years with AT&T. Tell me more about the industry's stand about cable directionality.I never heard it. What are your sources? Not an attack, I just want to know. | |
| What to look for in stock AR XA table? If it is in the described condition the price is OK. The cartridge isn't very good. Listen before you buy and you'll be ok. | |
| Bright Star Altair It has been a long time so I'm don't trust my audio memory.I seem to recall a very dynamic sound with tight, deep bass and a wonderful continuity across the frequency range.Again, it has been a long time. | |
| Bright Star Altair Heard them at a show years ago. Quite impressive. Barry Kohan is one of the truly good guys in the audio business. | |
| Transport that outputs SACD DSD signal w/ coaxial? Kr4, that's what I believe as well. I don't think it really does anything with the SACD layer but the manual is misleading. |
