| Surge protector @erik_squires thanks for the input. I ordered the Furman PST 8, if it doesn't work I can use it for the rest of the Audio/Video equipment, but hopefully, it will support my Amplifier. | |
| Surge protector My amplifier manual specifies not to connect to a power strip unless it is rated for High Current use. My question is are the Furman/Tripp Lite mentioned here capable for High Current use? | |
| Speakers, floor standing or Bookshelfs Thanks you all of you for the input. My room is a medium L shape where I always have to play with toeing the speakers due to one of the speakers having to be placed into the bottom part of the "L" wall to avoid as much reflections from the wall in... | |
| Under my tower speakers -- Isoacoustics Gaia, other options? @hilde45 those rubber/cork square isolators is all you need on concrete floors. No need to spend any more money on esoteric stuff that will not get you more. I use exactly what you have. They work, and I don't even have carpeting or a rug on my fl... | |

| different people may hear the same sound differently... when a person speaks, let's say in front of ten people, to most, the voice coming to them would be a non issue, but invariably to a least one person that voice would sound either outright annoying or subtlety not to their liking, or they all just ... | |
| Direct Drive I think that for a few hundred dollars more it would be better to get the Technics SL 1200GR with the cartridge of your preference and you'll be done. BUT there's a few upgrades that you could (if wanted) to bring it to almost the Sl1200G level.... | |
| MoFi controversy I don't care which way the disc was created/recorded. If it sounds good to me that's all it matters, specially if I'm able to say whoa!!! Having say that, I was all this time under the impression that my MoFi were all a strictly analog business, ... | |
| Best Rock Drummers In Rock, to me the most musical, melodically that there was is Ringo Starr. he didn't need to be an army marching in on a thunderous, deafening attack. he was just the right drummer for the Beatles. He made it all look simple. I saw the likes of K... | |

| Dust cover up or down? My experience is, it all depends. With my Belt drive Music Hall MMF-5 I had to play a disc with the dust cover off. With my direct Drive Technics SL 1210 GR it does not matter which way, closed, off, half way open, it's all the same. No effect o... | |
| Macintosh pre amps OK. Thanks guys, I think I got it now. I'm so used to receivers that always have a sub1 and/or sub 2 connection labeling that I didn't think that an output labeled connector can be used for subwoofers. | |
| Macintosh pre amps I checked the back panel pictures for the SS ones and I see balance and Unbalanced inputs and outputs, but not Pre outs, unless is me that can't understand McIntosh labeling of connections. | |
| Turn it up...? Is your preamp/AV receiver set to night mode? That could explain. | |
| your first system- I can't recall models, but1981 Technics TT, Receiver and speakers. The cheap entry level ones. The TT was an SL model with an Audio Technica cartridge. |
