| Quick and free fuse tweak Egg carton guy seems to be a bit of a joker. He has other junk posts.I can understand his skepticism as the systems he appears to be playing around with are low resolution efforts. | |
| What differences should I be hearing as my new system breaks in? @millercarbon That crossed my mind and then you said it. #funny | |
| What differences should I be hearing as my new system breaks in? As far as buying classic albums like DSOTM, always procure the originals if possible. The UK Harvest in the case of Pink Floyd. I find Discogs originals, even if somewhat worn, to be better sounding than processed reissues. | |
| oscillation in power supply filter caps If the caps are bad, there could be an increased load on the transformer causing it to vibrate. | |
| Quick and free fuse tweak @mrdecibel Thanks for the posts and original tweak info. The only reason I tried it was because lightning took out the preamp fuse. I've since done the same to 30mm slow blow antique fuses in my vintage tube power amps with noticeable but lesser ... | |
| How does wood hardness affect the sound of a TT on a wood TT platform? Back from Google. Global earthquake detection. The glass (silica fibers) are 400microns thick so chosen as they are immune to expansion and contraction from temperature changes. This thermal noise would impact negatively on measurements. | |
| How does wood hardness affect the sound of a TT on a wood TT platform? @geoffkait OP might need springs with that vibration which changes everything! | |
| My 1st Tube Equipment Experience For my taste, it sounds like you made a backward move. Never give up detail. | |

| Quick and free fuse tweak @threeeasypayments I updated post. I have a bag of fuses and tried it with and without on the phono preamp. Definite improvement like a rightness about the sound. Sounds faster. | |
| Electricity enhancer @audiosens Thanks. Well described improvements. | |
| Electricity enhancer @sleepwalker65 Not funny.I have not tried these but there seems to be a lot of interest in Graphene recently in shielding and noise reduction in power supplies. What sort of improvement did you experience? | |
| How many turntable’s have you owned? So skip the long process then and go for broke! Good luck. | |
| TT on Symposium Super Segue - slate or maple underneath? Seeing as you already have a wooden rack in the equation, try the Segue on the slate only. | |
| What was your first big eye opener with regard to audio? Tubes. My first taste was a tube phono preamp. It simply removed the grain and veil of solid state. |
