RU recording LPs on Reel to Reel ?
I know of a basement closet about 3 feet deep, 4 feet wide and 7 feet tall lined wall to wall with carefully labeled and well-recorded reel-to-reel tapes. The tapes were carefully made from LPs in the 60's and early 70's. They have all bled throug... 
how to eliminate air-born RF
Mooncrikit sent me the following via email:I live in a single story family housein the suburbs on a 1/4 acre lot. I moved my amps and preamp and speakers and cd source to the other side of the house with no change. The only part of my gear that wo... 
how to eliminate air-born RF
Tinfoil under my hat works for me...Why do you think it's RF? Do you live in a multi-unit dwelling of some sort or a house? City or country?What's downstairs, upstairs, and next to this room? Sounds to me like something mechanical, not electrical,... 
Why Veneer?
(average and better quality, not the cheapest stuff at Home Depot) particleboard is denser, more consistent batch to batch, CHEAPER, and doesn't warp or crack as it dries. 
myryad cd players
Myryad is having some big sale right now-- Anyone have experience with their MCD200 player? 
Something looks weird about this auctions?
just got an email from user :carolap53 on the same scam, different TV, though. I sent the following to Fred Vanover and he's not replied:OK, sounds good to me. There's just one catch-- I know a guy in Spain that owes me money, so I'll just send t... 
Something looks weird about this auctions?
They're still at it-- plasma TV ads right now on that huge auction service, claiming to be in Oregon-- username fmv503 shows almost 200 + feedbacks (although some call him by a different name than his email below uses) Just after I got an email re... 
ute-friendly speakers?
Did you say UTE? Screw a pair of M-L Scripts to the wall out of the ute's groping range until it's old enough to respond to physical discipline and stay off your speakers lest it earn a whoopin'. Once the house monkey is grown sell them to a home ... 
New Buddy Guy - "Blues Singer"
I finally got a copy of this and sat down for a serious listen. I like Buddy Guy in general, and this is a fantastic recording in many regards, but I've got to be honest and say that there are several songs on the album that start out with a ton o... 
Carver TFM 25 vs. Carver AV 405...please comment.
By saying "buy a good pair of speakers" I didn't mean to imply there was something wrong with your personal preference. I think you'll find with a better amp (and if you ever decide to try them, different speakers) that the highs on that Rowland p... 
Don't laugh..but could there be a best CD case?
Hey Rchiang-- wait until they ask you for your "brutally honest" feedback and any improvement suggestions, then follow up to thank you for your input. Too bad more companies don't have this sort of customer service model. 
Carver TFM 25 vs. Carver AV 405...please comment.
Why two preamps? Sell all 3 Carver amps, buy a good stereo amp. Than decide between the Rowland and Mac preamps, sell the loser and the JBLs, then buy a good pair of speakers. Elizabeth is absolutely right- many amp designs increase distortion and... 
What is best center speaker?
How 'bout phantom mode? 
Repost: Plasma TV support
Tell him to look at Auton and Inca's websites, then just do a keyword search for plasma TV lifts. This is not a new idea, and there are tons of commercially available products. He might want to talk to a custom installer about doing the work since... 
Speaker set up tweak, maybe old, but worth repeat.
I read something on another site today from a guy at Martin-Logan-- Copied text credited to author and poster below:Original link: http://www.martinloganowners.com/tweaks.html (bottom of the page)Jim Power's Toe-in TechniqueSent in by Ken Henegar ...
