| VTA Adjustment I apologize for the way I worded my statement. What I meant was that there is no reason why you would know that ASL is particularly unresponsive to consumers. One would naturally assume some sort of complaint to a dist. would be worthwhile, but in... | |
| VTA Adjustment Anyone who owns a hifi TT should be versed in the setup geometries, including how each geomety affects sound and how changes in one affects other geometries. When you find out what VTA is, it should be obvious how to change it on the Spacedeck.NA ... | |
| What's your latest "Discovery" The Shins "Oh, Inverted World". Its indie pop/rock, but it is well recorded, so maybe audiophiles might like too. Great album, cool lyrics. I also got the American IV album. Despite the album's total fragmentation, and the "Personal Jesus" cover, ... | |
| Thoughts on Paradigm Studio 60's? I have to disagree with the ear adaptation idea as the cause. Speakers, however need more break-in than one day of playing, so sonic changes of further break-in and adaptation are likely to have some effect. Experimenting with speaker placement co... | |
| Cables to mitigate CD glare -upper mids/lower hi's I would not add this if it was not so on point: Email Purist Audio and/or ask around about their HDI i/c. | |

| Mail Boxes Etc. now to be called the UPS Store I am looking for forward to the change. Mail Box Etc. is sooo much better than my local UPS. A Box employee told me that UPS shipping rates out of Mail Box will be cheaper after UPS takes over than than they are right now. I know its hard not be b... | |
| Hales Revelation 3:Oldie but is it still a Goodie? I choose Hales over these, Paradigm B&WLinnPSBMagnepanMartin LoganMonitorRuark...and it was a no-brainer. If you decide to buy, you may want to find a pair with the four threaded inserts for spikes, instead of the ones that simply rest on thre... | |
| Back to the audio future, going backwards While I have not needed to downgrade in order to better enjoy my stereo, I have come to a point where I care less about audio and subsequently about the sonic defecits in my stereo. And now that I have started to invest in other interests that hav... | |

| My name is.....and I am a compliationaholic. Compilations make for good probes, but compared to albums, they are disjointed, making them tough and relatively meanlingless to sit through. Soundtracks do a little better just because the tracks are at least tied together by the film. I don't kn... | |
| This Sistrum stuff works It would have been beneficial to just ask sistrum for their technical explanation, post the exp. here, and analyze it. At least you'd be on the same page, ummm, or closer to the same page. But I get the drift that you all maybe a little too tired ... | |
| Cryo treated wires? I don't need to test or read to know that any reasonable change in an ultimate resolution system will affect the sound. Similar to what I stated at the beginning, I would be surprised if cryo had no affect/benefit on your nice system, Garfish. But... | |
| Cryo treated wires? Good suggestion, Hdm. I am not sure how cryo, that particular outlet and my system will react together. I live in an apartment and my audio interest is waning, so I may never know :) In a high resolution system, I am sure the differece would be ob... |
