| Why spend more than $25 per piece of equipment on vibration reduction? Springs, pods, air ride. Everything else is to impress your friends and look pretty. If your speakers are slot loaded with an open botton (no butt plate) they can’t be decoupled. Don’t bother. 80s tech anyways along with spikes of any kind. If s... | |
| Try a sub a third in the back 2-4 of these work better.. Very Rare.. 1000 watts all night 5000 watt burst. Very low distortion too. Under 5% <15hz - 150hz optional 250hz. | |
| Try a sub a third in the back hilde45 if you really like the REL subs another sub that will really reach deep is a VMPS, Tallboy < 16hz. They were/are used in the NASA simulation lab. I used 4 in the 80/90s. They would and could crumble your house. They run a 12 and 15" ac... | |
| All I Wanted To Do Was Listen To Music I got nothin' | |
| Headstone They are a bunch of party poopers. I could hear them now "You have to be dead", BUT why? Because. Because why? Look Mister we live on a busy street for a reason. If you time it just right coming out of Mass from across the street a car will k... | |
| Don’t want to freak you out… Yup I’m patient.. LOL They use to make a foam ear. It was for audiophilers. They were a porous foam. They use it around mics and tweeters to tame nasal, wind, and off axis noise, too. It was called Big Ears, I think.. Think about poor wrestlers... | |
| Don’t want to freak you out… Start there anyways. Wait till the wife starts moving the balance to the left or right and you ask, "Does that sound off"? Oh NO it's perfect. I have to go make sure I didn't have a stroke. Females! Ferengi ears, "The Lobes" they work. Regards | |
| Smart buying buying a preamp with tubes anot avail except as made by preamp manuf? Well it's certainly one way to make sure you have a corner on the market. I'm sure I'd make a great milk carton pic. Holding my single tube. "Have you seen this tube"? If you have la-te-da..... :-) | |

| Smart buying buying a preamp with tubes anot avail except as made by preamp manuf? My luck. I buy one with a spare tube. Then someone else buys all the rest, all 15 units.. all 30 tubes.. Sounds like a nightmare. to me.. Next thing we read about "what a nice guy he WAS". Regards | |
| Got a screw loose? I've added a lot of through screw/nut packs to the subs I use. They don't come loose once I re-torque. I don't have bass in the monitors either. https://www.parts-express.com/Cast-Frame-1-4-20-Speaker-Mounting-Kit-260-778 Regards | |
| I'm confused - Different music...different speakers? Think bigger. That will work. The old Infinities work well. Kerwin Vegas, too. Any of the old VMPS will rock the joint. You can spend a lot of money and get half what most will do. Tekton is a good one I bet.. All kinds of choices there. Like russ... | |
| The pope's rig? And YOU are worried about priest? I'd say look out for yuviarora. I guess you're speaking of David playing the harp to soothe Saul's tormented mind. It's hot over there and David had killed a Lyon and a Bear as a sheppard. They didn't have AR15s y... | |
| Use of a super tweeter worth the investement ? I’ve used my own contraptions with 40khz tweeters. Just have to get the acoustic centers correct.. That’s the real bonus. Regards | |
| The pope's rig? The Pope's is pointing up though. :-) Regards |
