| Should Speaker Manufactures provide a Frequency Response Graph? I never knew you had to get a manufacturer's permission to post a measurement. I'm all for graphs but if it sounds good, it works for me. | |
| What is the quality and performance level of Fluance turntables?? Never heard one. They have a good reputation as a reasonable starter turntable. If you do go for one, upgrade to a 2M Blue.

| Improving a stone rack @o_holter I use 3 not 4. I found they worked best at 1/3 to 1/2 compression. I also found that they worked best on turntable > tubed phono amps > tube power supply > speakers. Not so much on tube power amps. Try with/without the rubber pr... | |
| Is positive reinforcement why things are sounding better? Teles are great so at least that much is truth. Best way to check is to play some songs, then re-insert the previous component and replay. Still good? When you change something expecting or hoping for an improvement, be honest with yourself. Is i... | |
