PS Audio IRSV selling
Th speakers were sold almost immediately about three weeks ago!  You’re a little behind the power curve on this one. They were not stock, a completely new crossover was designed and all the woofers and power amps for them were replaced with much b... 
Upgrading from a VPI Aries 1- is it worth it?
I have an original Aries Extended which uses the 12" arm vs. the 10" arm of the standard Aries, which I assume is what you have.  I've changed a lot on it; aluminum platter (used) and periphery ring (came with table along with frosted acrylic plat... 
Will audio gear be ok in unheated house
I have a cabin in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, it is relatively new construction well insulated and well sealed. I have some older equipment, Antique Sound Lab tube integrated, older DAC, and Vandersteen 2Ci, which I have been using there for sever... 
Vandersteen 2ci with tube amps
I’ve got a pair of 2Ci I use in a second system with a Antique Sound Lab EL-34 based integrated and it’s not a great match.  The 2Ci are a bit on the warm side so a vintage sounding tube amp is not a great match unless you like a very warm sound (...

Anybody help me unload all of this on Audiogon….
Dealing with TMR can be easy, though with all that equipment it may take them a while to get back with you on their offer. Also, unless you just want to get rid of it at any cost, make sure you know what it is worth before accepting their offer. ... 
Herbie’s Spike Decoupling Gliders: my…experience
Not sure what type of floor you have your speakers on, but if it is a suspended floor (wood floor over joists) the floor can get excited by the speaker, much more so in the bass region, and become a secondary transducer.  This would explain the mu... 
Ps audio aspen FR 30 Loudspeakers
ricevs, using your line of logic I would bet your speakers sound as good as they look. 💩 Since you have not heard the FR30, please refrain from making judgements on how they sound based on how they look.  Also, keep in mind Chris Brunhaver who des...
