| Best Pc for audio? I'm going to toss my vote in for PC. I have used mac and PC both equally and extensively. Going foward you will have more options by sticking with PC as you can use mp3's more trouble free and transfer songs to other devices easier because with Ap... | |
| Ipod cable to Integrated amp On my Dialogue 2 use RCA to 1/8" mini (stereo). I got mine on eBay. It has gold plated connectors, good amount of length (5') and is oxygen free copper and shielded and has a nice fleixble sheathing on it. Made by Monster for about $20. Don't spen... | |
| 128kbps AAC files... About one tenth of the actual information from the CD is presented. Barely suitable for listening on ear buds. 192 is starting to get reasonable, but the cymbals and high end go warbly still. Forget about low end. If you intend to do serious archi... | |
| Where to get replacement Rubber Feet? Thanks guys, This is all great. I wasn't sure about the Herbies taking all the weight due to their small size, but I got an email back confirming the Buffalo dots will take the weight.Thanks again, | |
| Steam Cleaning - RCM or not? Buy a lazy susan. IKEA and other home stores sell them for around $10. It is basically a round wooden platform with a base made of bearings. I put a microfibre cloth on the top, drop an LP on there and spin it while steaming. Works perfectly and g... | |
| Weakest Link + hardwired = ?? Thanks Kotta, I ordered the RCA's today. My stock ones fit so tight, the only way to attach them is with pliers. I also have a vintage Pioneer! For the extra $4, it seems like a decent testing ground to ensure a good Pro-ject sucess rate.Some Audi... | |
| When Streaming, is 128kps good or not so good? I personally think it depends on the source. I'm not sure what bitrate Sirius broadcasts at, but my recent experience with Sirius in rental cars is a joke. I find anything except for talk radio to be almost unlistenable as it is so lifeless.Conver... | |
| Weakest Link + hardwired = ?? It is actually the 1.2 I am referring to. I probably paid way too much for it back in '02 ($600) when it first came out, hence I will be keeping it for life now.I have outfitted it with an Ortofon 2M Red with some great results. Tested through an ... | |
| Pre-amp out Question .bump. | |
| Pre-amp out Question So I have tested the pre and here's what I found. Keep in mind I have no dedicated power amp to try this out with. Testing conditions: I used Tape Out exclusively on the Spectral DMC10. I used a turntable & cd player as sources.Issues:-Output ... | |
| New Build This is the difficulty with new systems, is that after building computers for many years, it is truly a constant test of swapping componenents. Is building a system around speakers common practice? I would have thought the amp would come first?Als... | |
| New Build Speakers are definately in the long term works, but for now I can't afford it. (Have to focus on the amp side) I have not yet picked up the G2's but can get them for $400. Are the Kinima's that bad?I have been using a set of JBL's from the '80's a... |
