| Classic Audio T 3.3 or 3.4 speakers thoughts from actual owners These are one of my dream speakers. I don’t have them, but have sat in front of a buddies T3’s powered by Atma-Sphere OTL M-60’s now for seven to eight years. This system is the reason I’ve now run Atma MA-1 for a dozen years now. I know Ralph Kar... | |

| Why do all audio forums on the internet seem "dead" ? Audiophile forums and our hobby have not been the same since the market crash and soft economic recovery. It hardly takes Janet Yellen to predict sluggish high-end audio sales or a lack of exuberance in participation, because we don’t fit neatly i... | |
| Do glass shelves affect sound Quality? Nice catch geoffkait, Mana was once a very well respected isolation platform. I have two and have never noticed the glass shelves to be a detriment. Though I did prefer a Neuance platform the best under my Sondek Lp12 on Mana’s reference rack, the... | |

| Just how great is Elvis Costello Declan, Elvis Costello IS the king of rock ’n roll for me. My list of favorite albums from him would read more like a discography than a best of. Read Unfaithful Music & Disappearing Ink it is a hoot. That guy from Graceland doesn’t even come ... | |
| Phono pre "Break-In" process? Necessary? Sometimes hard to separate those being intentionally ridiculous, from those who just are...It's great to have both the musical background and audio experience you speak of. I don't know you, so I would not make too rash a judgement to whether that... | |
| Phono pre "Break-In" process? Necessary? wolf_garcia, are you merely fooling around and adding distortions to the soundtrack or are you searching to understand? I'd suggest, let your ears and your experience be the true test of whether something exists in the audio hobby/world. Trading i... | |
| Phono pre "Break-In" process? Necessary? At 4:20 this thread appeared to run astray of any reasonable logic... could it just be a Friday "burn-in" gone up in smoke in someone's time zone? | |
| Phono pre "Break-In" process? Necessary? Geoffkait, I could not agree with you more. One would think they would hear it, understand it, and for nothing more than pure money making desire, wish to have the gear sounding its best, but they don’t, go figure...That makes me question their ve... | |
| Cable "burning": Real or VooDoo ??? 2016 and still burning man! No voodoo here. | |
| Phono pre "Break-In" process? Necessary? Burn-in matters.If you haven’t heard it for yourself... you are yet to be educated. Your ears will thank you eternally.Hagerman Technologies offers a iRIAA2 (inverse riaa card) that works with a line output signal from say a CD player. You fire it... | |
| Learning the hard way about AC power solutions I would agree Kenny, why incorporate anything more, than is necessary. Because someone said so... that is not good enough. Each case is unique. I have found it much simpler to understand what a power treatment is doing (or any other component for ... | |
| Learning the hard way about AC power solutions I will parrot what lynott so clearly commented, one size does not fit all when it comes to mains conditioning and handling. Each case is unique. Source is king, and mains is the "other" source. Only when you have lowered your noise floor will you ... |
