| Mr. Obvious (?) - digital source (burn) Hard drives crash and die! You better have at least two storing your data. Otherwise, goodbye music collection! That's why I will stick with my collection of CD players! | |
| How to pre clean a very dirty LP before Ultrasound Machine? A folded-square of Bounty and some Windex (or generic glass cleaner) applied in a spiral motion is enough to clean most LPs before a thorough spray rinse with distilled water - followed by air-drying in a rack. And a new, clean inner-sleeve, of co... | |
| How to pre clean a very dirty LP before Ultrasound Machine? @paulcreed : $9 a gallon! LOL! | |
| How to pre clean a very dirty LP before Ultrasound Machine? ANY store-brand "steam-distilled" water will do just fine! I pay $.89 a gallon for SEG water. No need to be neurotic about what brand of distilled water you choose! | |
| Audiogon member suggestions for a speaker that sounds good at low volume!!! Quad 57's sound fine at low volume! | |
| starting with the PLX500 (have to!), possibilities with pre/cart? A Grado ($100) and a Bellari tube phono stage ($300) would be a nice combination! | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect Wait for the Chinese to duplicate it for 1/10 the cost! | |
| New $24,000 inter-connect Just the right IC to use with the $49,500 VAC STATEMENT phono stage now listed on this site! | |
| Marketing slogans to catch the consumers attention "Schlitz - The Beer That Made Milwaukee Famous!" Anybody here old enough to remember this one? | |
| Stacked Quads wiring question The 57’s are severely voltage limited! They will arc around 30 volts. Burning holes in the stators and Mylar diaphragms! A 50 watt (20 volts) amp is acceptable. | |
| Stacked Quads wiring question Don’t use those 125 watt tube amps! Too powerful! Will damage the 57’s! Stick with the pair of 303's! | |
| Stacked Quads wiring question Use a Y connector from your preamp (if it doesn't have two pairs of output jacks). No sonic harm for your two 303's! That's a good combination for use with two pairs of 57's! | |
| Stacked Quads wiring question I have two pairs of the 57's. Not yet setup for stacked. Will go for parallel with a single SS stereo amp (BEL 1001). This will halve the impedance around 50hz (30ohms) and allow more power for bass. SS power drops into higher impedances. | |
| Marketing slogans to catch the consumers attention "Is It Live - Or Is It Memorex?" I remember this one from the magazine ads. Gray tones with a JBL100 on the left and a seated male listener wearing a suit and clutching the chair's arms as his tie and hair are being blown back from the wind of the... | |
| Marketing slogans to catch the consumers attention Those Carver Magnetic Field cube amps are really pretty good! I have one in my collection. 200 wpc! Maybe not so good for low-impedances - lack of heat-sinks. But they sure do look neat! |
