| Teres Illius Tonearm and the importance of the Tonearm in the analog reproduction chain I love my Teres table. I have a solid acrylic platter - I wish I could find a lead loaded platter. If anyone has one they aren't using, PM me! | |
| How does high-pass filter requirement affect system decisions? I think it gives you a lot more flexibility for experimentation. I'm very happy with my AX-7e. Of course, I'm interested what an Ayre upgrade would do, but I think $12k of new music would bring more satisfaction than $12k of new hardware. I do fee... | |
| Help w/ Martin Logan setup! It's easy to get sucked into "audiophile nervosa". My advice is a bit more pragmatic. Go back to Magnolia and pick up a Marantz MM7025 and see if improves things. If so, call it good. It's not that expensive and, regardless of how much you spend o... | |
| Does anyone know where I can get a turntable platter machined to my specs I'm interested in your project...keep us posted! | |
| Homemade 6 inch tall stands for small floor stranders Used bookstore, a few unwanted hardcover books (encyclopedias, dictionaries, etc.), a handful of long screws. | |
| Does anyone know where I can get a turntable platter machined to my specs What kind of project are you working on? I've wanted to experiment with the platter on my Teres table. | |
| Vandersteen Treo vs 3A Sig as upgrade After living with my Quatro CT's front he past 8 months, I can only find one downside - I may have purchased my last pair of speakers. | |
| Would you go all 1 brand for electronics? Ayre AX-7e, Ayre CX-7e mp, Ayre P-5xe, Ayre L-5xe. He who gets himself off the equipment merry-go-round soonest wins. | |
| What do you miss about old school hip hop music and why? The disco scratch. | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith dvavc, we're all entitled to our opinions. In my opinion, you have no idea what you're talking about. | |
| Anti skate. I think something's wrong Are you absolutely 100% sure your platter is perfectly level? How about where you mount your tonearm - is that perfectly level, too?Check it, and recheck it. My table is on a wooden cabinet and "level" changes day-to-day (I tweak with pieces of ca... | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith Personally I would have been calling / emailing at week 14 (not waiting until nearly week 52). That being said, stuff happens. Peter is one of the good guys in this industry. I can't imagine not being a Sound Smith customer. His products and suppo... | |
| LAST record preservative improves the sound I got a note from Walter (he's been a bit underwater lately). In addition to the 3 sets of questions noted above, I actually asked him a 4th question as well: "Would you mind if I shared your responses on the AudioGon forum?" Here are the response... | |
| LAST record preservative improves the sound inna said that there was no audible difference after a 2nd application of LAST Record Preservative. And, yes, LAST Record Preservative is designed to prevent deterioration. However, I stand behind my claim that it makes records sound better today. | |
| Best Of Breed or Matching Components? Not sure what constitutes "best" sound, but I will say this - I'm very happy with my Ayre stack (AX-7e, CX-7e mp, P-5xe, L-5xe). But then again, I don't like being on the equipment merry-go-round. My recent purchase of my Vandersteen Quatro CTs is... |
