| Oops, HOUSE FLOOD!! Audiophile vinyl collection got soaked. Where do we go from here? As a collector from my teens-say 1966- I will not buy damaged albums. Worn yes,damaged no, e&oe. | |
| The "Digital" listening experience Sorry for lack of clarity. I'm referring specifically to AC power isolation (and conditioning). (Equitech 2Q or Furutech balanced power units being examples of competent devices. | |
| Are wood crates like Crosley safe for LP's? Low in front,high in back | |
| Isolation Platforms under Line / Power Conditioners ..any thoughts ? I should have said "may......hum". PS Audio made a Humbuster for example, no recommendation implied. | |
| Isolation Platforms under Line / Power Conditioners ..any thoughts ? You can reduce or virtually eliminate the hum in your transformer by using another power conditioning unit before it. Experiment. | |
| The "Digital" listening experience Czarivey I think you misunderstood my post. I'm not in any way implying that because a piece is digitally recorded the performance isn't first rate. In fact,most musicians don't care 'how' it's recorded, just that it sounds 'right' to them. My und... | |
| CD quality differences So true. Disappointing,along with the fact that even the absolute phase was not consistent from song to song (due to processing). It seems many with a great ear for music are so into the music that don't hear,or perhaps listen for, sound quality. | |
| Oops, HOUSE FLOOD!! Audiophile vinyl collection got soaked. Where do we go from here? Insurance paid up when I had a loss. Fortunately my insurance agent had explained the need for cataloging so at his suggestion I allowed him to hire a student ,of his choice, to create an alphabetical list (I paid of course) with details. I only l... | |
| The "Digital" listening experience As an example of the different level of enjoyment of music played with exceptional intensity/heart I find Schubert's Trout Quintet unlistenable when played poorly and entrancing when played with deep sensitivity. | |
| What to do with bad recorded CDs What do you have for ac power isolation and conditioning? | |
| The next step to a better system You could experiment going up the various line of conditioners (via dealer loaners) and determine where your needs are met, i.e. no further refinement in sound quality. For value you want to buy a conditioner that does what you require and not mor... | |
| Would you go all 1 brand for electronics? Spectral. Amp,Pre and CD player with reference MIT cables and p/c's. | |
| High-Resolution Audio: You Can Hear Me Now Without adequate quality recordings,components and,up including AC isolation and conditioning, it's not worth trying to discern quality. But, if you have high quality components; it's a breeze. | |
| The next step to a better system Congrats on the 105D. I suggest AC power conditioning and isolation to reveal the great sound available from what you have. Experiment. | |
| where's the best difference? Investment in isolation and power conditioning is my 1st suggestion. I will add that a detachable power cord for the conditioning unit is very worthwhile as cable technology and materials will continue to evolve and allow you to select for synergy... |
