| Dynavector DV-10x5 repair? Buy a new one! Repair cost liable to be high! | |
| I was going to give my son a system, with brand new Solid Steel rack but he has AirPods??? It's all about fashion! And the fashion for today's younger generations is portable on-the- go devices connected to the 'Net. | |
| Gold lion tubes Just buy two matched sets of either EH or JJ 6550's. Both companies make quality tubes at affordable prices. | |
| Something Else I'm Wondering About Low resistance for the length required is the only property of wire that matters for audio signals of 20hz to 20khz. An exception is the voice coils of dynamic speakers - miles of very fine gauge enameled wire are used! | |
| The most criminal practice in the speaker industry revealed!! Keep reading A multi-driver speaker should produce a single pulse - all drivers coherent and in phase. An Altec 755 can do this because it is a single 6-inch driver. But. alas, it is limited to 60hz and rolls off above 8khz. Most multi-driver speakers fail thi... | |
| Beatles best album and concert dvd? Why do you want to use the Beatles' music for background listening? Such a waste! Try instead Brian Eno's Music For Airports. | |
| Beatles best album and concert dvd? Abbey Road is the best IMO! And I've been listening to the Beatles since 1964! | |
| The Linn Karousel bearing. Buggy whip technology in the Digital Age! I too have an LP12 - and no plans to replace the bearing! | |
| To venture back into vinyl or not,...that is the question. When I wanted to add a new production TT to my collection of vintage TT's I chose the Pioneer PLX1000. At $700 and $300 for a Denon 103R mc cartridge the performance/cost ratio is hard to beat! Read Herb Reichert"s review in Stereophile a few year... | |
| To venture back into vinyl or not,...that is the question. An old BSR changer - UGH! | |
| Total bass suck out at 40hz Most speakers with dynamic woofers will have the best bass (flattest) by placement against the front wall. And the worst farther out into the room. This is the "Allison Effect" - discovered by noted audio engineer Roy Allison. | |
| Total bass suck out at 40hz Try moving the NS1000's right against the front wall. I assume they are on stands so your ear level is about the middle of the cabinets. Play the 40hz tone and start listening near-field at around six feet. Move back gradually until the 40hz tone ... | |
| Best "Bang for the Buck" you have owned? The KLH Nines (driven by a Bedini 25/25 and Mogami 2477 speaker cable) had great "boogie factor"! I remember listening to the live Creedence Clearwater LP and my father coming downstairs and yelling " Turn it down - it's too loud, I can hear it u... | |
| Best "Bang for the Buck" you have owned? My purchase in 1991 of a one-owner pair of KLH Nine full-range electrostats for $500! Designed by Arthur Janzen and Roger West, who later started Sound Lab. Found them through a NY Times Sunday classified ad by Hi Fi Classics in Far Rockaway, NY. ... | |
| How good Muzishare brand tubes? Keep the stock tube set! You can probably get two thousand + hours use from the KT88's - and even more from the small tubes! The 5U4 rectifier might be the first to need replacement. Apparently Ch*nese-made rectifiers are not as robust as good US-... |
