| Flattening warped lp's with Seal dry mount press pdennis -- If you want to try the glass/oven method, use 3/8" thick glass. 1/4" may not provide enough even weight, and 1/2" may not heat and cool evenly. You should also observe the following:1.) Make sure your oven really goes down to 140 degree... | |
| Flattening warped lp's with Seal dry mount press Will, success! However, just to make sure you are not getting unnecessarily complex (with your sandwich) you might just want to try the two-sheets-of-glass thing. I mention this because if it works as well, it makes things a lot simpler, and becau... | |
| Flattening warped lp's with Seal dry mount press My Seal press had a dial thermometer (very accurate I mightadd) built into the top platen and the heat was thermostaticaly controlled at any setting. Perhaps this was only on the larger models? | |
| Flattening warped lp's with Seal dry mount press Interesting -- I suggest you do not use the acrylic, but rather two glass pieces (and 3/8" thick should be adequate since the glass is fully supported and you are only applying the weight of the platen. Lower heat would be good too as someone else... | |
| Any other Nicolette Larson fans out there? Is she no longer with us or just decided to retire? Your post sounds a bit morbid? She sure has (had?) a great voice. I have her original release material but am unaware of any re-releases or premium pressings. | |

| SME V setup semi, I'm not sure I understand what you are describing. My DB protractor has a hole that fits over the spindle. Perhaps you were referring to the SME "protractor"? | |
| SME V setup The SME setup jig has two basic problems. (One may or may not be a problem depending on the cartridge.)1.) The method of reading and making adjustments leaves too big a margin for error, and the overhang can be off by as much as +/_ 3 to 4 mm.2.) ... | |
| cable directionality Frankly, I wish the arrows had never happened in the first place, but maybe a bit of history will serve to clarify the current situation.The first instance of the use of arrows that I recall was on the Bruce Brisson-designed shotgun-type Monster C... | |
| cable directionality You are absolutely right re: arrow points to ground, with some notable exceptions (Magnan and Purist being two I'm aware of). The general rule (for IC's) is all arrows point to the preamp, which should also be the only component whose ground (thir... | |
| Martin Logan Summit, better than Prodigy Chadnliz -- what you say about the bass of Martin Logan (hybrid) speakers is true, but it's not true of the bass on the Summits. They have just about the fastest, tightest, most powerful bass I've heard anywhere. When you have time to hear a pair,... | |
| Power cords for Martin Logan speakers?? (from another post): I have CLS IIZ's and I've tried a variety of high-quality (some pretty expensive) PC's in different locations in my system -- including Audio Metallurgy, Aural thrills, XLO, Purist Venustas, and some custom jobbies.After using... | |
