| Why hasnt a turntable manufacturer produced a table with automatic tonearm return/shutoff? @kavakat1, several features have changed/evolved(!) over the years. Tone controls were common into the '70s but became rare after that, except on receivers which were more of a consumer product rather than audio hobbyist. Speakers once commonly ... | |
| Help with Dunlavy Aletha I believe Dunlavy always recommended long wall placement so speakers could be placed wide apart while keeping them a good distance from side walls. The problem with this as I saw it was unless the room was larger than average that could place the... | |
| Suggestions for a holographic preamp? Either a used Don Sachs, no longer made but lower cost used, or the model that superseded it the Spatial Audio Raven. This repeats suggestions of others. | |
| MoFi Sourcepoint 888 Speakers I've hesitated in replying again for a number of reasons. * We all have somewhat different hearing acuity. * We have different tastes in music and presentation, along with different experiences with live music and individual systems. * We have ... | |
| antiskate disc Many thanks junebug. I respect the knowledge of the folks at Wally Tools but was not aware of this recent series of videos. It seems I've carried lots of incorrect information forward in my decades in this hobby. :^( | |
| EveAnna has sold her biz I sincerely hope EveAnna gets her full reward with this. I believe she's earned it. I bought a pair of VTL 300s when they and Manley were still one company. I took the amps to the factory for a minor repair and met the whole team. Later I boug... | |
| New vs old Magnepan models sml19, sorry but no experience with the .7 for a direct answer to your question. I have a pair of 1.6s modified by Peter Gunn. Unfortunately he passed away and his Magnestand site is no longer up. He had reasons he did not recommend the 1.7s. ... | |
| To refurbish Peter Gunn modded Maggie's or not? @andrew-benn, one other thought for an option. Do you feel you would be up to removing the screens from the frames? If so could you send only those to Magnepan for replacement/repair? It would save significant shipping costs. And that should r... | |
| the gateway product that turned you into an audiophile Sorry, my first stereo (above) included AR-4 speakers. Forgot to mention them. | |
| the gateway product that turned you into an audiophile This has been interesting, particularly how influential the '70s decade has been in the audio hobby. For me there was no identifiable time I became an "audiophile". But it started with music, Vaughn Monroe's "Ghost Riders In The Sky" when I was ... | |
| Dunlavy returns I had a pair of Duntech Princess which I owned for 19 years, by far the longest of any component I ever owned. That model evolved into the DAL SC 4 and 4A. I chatted with John a couple of times at a CES, after he moved back to the US and opened ... | |
| White cabinet popularity? jaytor, very nice. Although that looks to be a dedicated room so WAF may not likely apply. ;^) | |
| White cabinet popularity? A couple of additional thoughts. First, I'm not against natural wood finishes. I've owned a few that were very attractive. So i'm not suggesting all speakers should be white or other light colors. My curiosity was if more companies included wh... | |
| Vintage Japanese DD Consult and Suggestions Please Thanks pindac. | |
| MoFi Sourcepoint 888 Speakers Correction, that should be spatiality, but most likely knew that. ;^) |
