| 200g vinyl, more static? The additional height of a 200grm may insulate it more from static discharge. | |
| Cartridge Tonearm compatibility Not a Maglev as in the floating platter table? | |
| Where can I audition amps near Boston? @Feel free to wander in but don't expect to hear anything without an appointment. | |
| Cartridge Upgrade - Nagaoka or Goldring Goldring 1042 has more energy than the Nagaoka. I'd go for that. I wouldn't spend much more though. Upgrade table instead. | |
| Quad ESL service, Electrostatic Solutions or Quads Unlimited ? @mikeyaya My 57s are still going strong. Sweet as a nut. | |
| which is more musical? A REL or a SUMIKO subwoofer for two channel only? Happy with my REL S3 SHO. Saving for a second one. Used, as they are replaced by the new S series which is a little more expensive. Very fast and tight when needed. You might look into 4 smaller ones like the t7 as an option. | |
| LP made from a digital master recording... Analog tape print through and vinyl pre/post echo can add a richness to vinyl recordings. | |
| BoenickeAudio's "unique" wood speaker driver? OP, lighter and stiffer than paper with better damping than metal and more rigidity than plastic. | |
| Hidden Sub maximising boot space of a car I made an amplified one with a 12" McKenzie driver to fit the space. Sounded great. | |
| Where can I audition amps near Boston? Make an appointment with Goodwins. It is not a place where you can just browse by and say, "Can I hear that?" | |
| The new amplifiers is getting warmer and hot But doesn't Class D run cooler? More likely that the heavier, more expensive to build heat-sinking capacity is reduced in the newer amps along with more heat tolerant components which allow them to run hotter without damage. | |
| Stereo Receivers from the past... Don't forget an antenna. Not just a wire hanging behind the unit. | |
| Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS. If the ticks and pops bug you, stay with digital. The better your table and phono amp, the less you notice. Buy older used originals instead of new records. Cheaper and sound better. | |
| Desktop Speakers - New Tannoy Golds versus Adam, Vanatoo etc Heard Vanatoo at AXPONA. Very impressive. you're right to ignore Audio Engine - dull and bland. | |
