| transferring music to SSD Is there any legal prohibition about recording as you stream? | |
| Flatscreen between speakers The further back the screen is from radiating surface of the loudspeakers the better. Using a rug or blankets is probably better than nothing, but if you are going to cover the screen you should use a real acoustic product that has uniform or smo... | |
| Claude #2 Before you go could you please explain the genesis or meaning of your screen name? | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Actually the Rolling Stones could be quite political with their social commentary. | |
| WTB Philips GA212 tonearm You might be better off getting a complete turntable. Check Craigslist. I live in SE Michigan and 212/312 show up regularly for under $200. | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? There was a recent thread where the owner of this Eggleston loudspeaker asked what he should do after viewing the Richie video. I asked him if he actually hears "the hole" and his answer was no, he's never heard it. The original Stereophile revi... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes Hi-rez digital can sound better than Redbook standard digital. You don't even need an all out assault on the state of the art system to demonstrate that. | |
| Favorite Tribute Albums? Ray Charles does a marvelous "Eleanor Rigby" | |
| Calling all Eggleston owners The Stereophile review says the loudspeaker is sensitive to toe-in, tilt, listening distance and room size. If you don't pay attention to these elements the "hole" can be heard. All loudspeakers have some compromises. Did you have a problem wit... | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations Thank you for your response. No disrespect to the OP, but I couldn't imagine not getting the powered ATCs. It would be comparable to getting the big MBL Radials and not using matching MBL amps. Both are designed as loudspeaker systems. But oth... | |

| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations @lonemountain thank you for participating. Perhaps ATC will pickup my suggestion of an outboard active crossover? I imagine the OP made the best choice for his specific situation. | |
| Solutions for converting vinyl to 256 DSD? Convert to PCM, edit/tag and then convert to DSD. For it to be worth your time and effort you will need a high quality phono setup including phono preamp. A high quality A/D converter starts at MSRP of $1k. Make multiple backups of your digital... | |
| Does other Audiogon members' opinion carry any weight for you ? Of course I do! I like seeing how other people have put together systems and what music they listen to. I've learned much. | |
| ATC SCM150 Amp and Preamp recommendations If a loudspeaker enclosure is a poor environment for an amplifier, then it's an equally poor environment for a loudspeaker crossover. Perhaps ATC should offer outboard line level crossover units so that audiophiles could pick and choose their own... |
