| What the heck do these terms mean? Poetry, perfect. Sometimes you get it and sometimes you don't. I feel that organic thing sometimes. Other times I think it is just way too pedestrian. Crazy thing it is the same recording through the same system. Sometimes my brain is in one frame... | |
| How many people here generally buy used? TT, phono preamp, speaker cables, interconnects, power cords all new. Amp, CD transport, DAC, receiver, speakers, subwoofers all used. Why? Don't know. That is how it played out. It was time to make a move and that is where I ended up. Could have ... | |
| It happened again tonight I appreciate @millercarbon opening up about a very transcendental experience. We have all had those moments listening. I get that feeling listening to Camel's Lunar Sea every time. I don't know why but the rhythm just takes me someplace else. Just... | |
| Tweaks - An Honest Discussion The most audibly meaningful "tweak" I have done was adding a power cord to my integrated. I think it was around $600. Far from outrageous. I have added numerous components over the years, each of which provided improvement, but nothing as distinc... | |
| End of the World system GIK. Too funny! | |
| Subwoofer insight. Just watched that entire lecture. Wasn't sure if that was Earl Geddes' theory or @ millercarbon's theory? If I have to get a microphone and other equipment to start measuring all of this then I am in trouble. Are there any professionals out ther... | |
| How do you sort your LPs? Alphabetically starting with the first letter towards the side facing me. Could be the title of the album or the name of the artist. Therefore listening is completely random. I guess I could just put them all in randomly and would be the same effe... | |
| Subwoofer insight. I’m so sorry ieales but I don’t understand what you are trying to say. Read it multiple times but still don’t get it. Any chance you could say it without the subliminal messaging? | |
| Has anyone else auditioned something that really was terrible? "Jump on Bose asap dude!!" is a completely uncalled for response from EBM. Take it elsewhere. Should have been removed by the mods. Unnecessary harmful commentary. | |
| Subwoofer insight. Thanks Brad, easier said than done. I have often said to myself the same question. I know no one whom participates in these activities so borrowing is not an immediate option. Sure, I could make a local effort and see what is available but that is... | |
| Subwoofer insight. I appreciate all the responses. It has been a long stretch of working 10 nights. Now got 5 days off. Plan on trying to tune them in as best I can the next few days. Should be a good time and am excited to simply enjoy the music more than anything ... | |
| Subwoofer insight. As they say, you only know what you know. So far I have been impressed with my results with the RELs. I suppose I would need to move outside my comfort zone to take the advice what many are saying here. I do feel like the air is moving. The onl... | |
| Subwoofer insight. There are separate right and left 8 ohm taps on the integrated so seems okay for connection purposes. Main speakers hooked to the 4 ohm taps. Super nice guy I dealt with today. He gave me a couple of weeks to see if they work for me. Now I just... | |
| Subwoofer insight. BTW, no responses from Kenjit allowed. Ha! | |
| It looks like a debate to me. No one should ever listen to what I say about audio stuff. However, I would say this. All involved should just bow their heads and move on. So be it as it may. |
