| Room Treatments Go to the Realtraps site. Every room needs bass and first refelction point absorption. Foam sound absorbers just won't do...they deaden the sound. The idea is to flatten out the frequency response in your room. Realtraps are frequency tuned. It wi... | |
| Rockport Sirius III & Micro Seiki 8000 comparison Sirius eye candy there ! Thanks for sharing. :-) | |
| Totem speakers and others that I should consider? Check out Aerial Acoustics Model 7T. There is a review this month in either Stereophile or TAS, can't remember off the top of my head which mag. They are in your price range. | |
| 40th Anniversary Aqualung is KILLER from a vinyl standpoint, nothing beats Classic Record's release on Clarity vinyl at 45 rpm. This is my opinon of course. YMMV | |
| Integrated Amp recommendation If U have the money, Pass INT-150 | |
| Turntable speed accuracy I suppose using a strobe disk and the Timeline laser then comparing the results. I don't lose much sleep over it...I use a strobe disk and that is good enough. | |
| Best Record You Have Ever heard 11-08-11: ViridianIf you guys think that the MFSL "Crime" is a decent LP, you should listen to the MoFi UHQR of the same. I don't have the Mobile Fidelity regular version, but do have the UHQR version. It is definatley one of my best sounding LP's | |
| Fleetwood Mac Rumours 96/24 The Hoffman/Gray remaster on 45 rpm vinyl is the ticket. You might get more input in the digital forum. Just sayin' | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme? 11-01-11: HalcroP2S distance with the Phantom II can be measured accurately with the cap removed and the Feikert pin lowered into the damping well.This is recommended by both Bob Graham and Feikert.This is good to know. Does the well have a detent... | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme? From Bob Graham, via Musical surroundsings:I checked with Bob Graham and while you are correct that the alignment jig is for the 9" arm, there is actually only a 1/2" difference in the effective length of the 9" vs the 10". Mr. Graham recommends m... | |
| Benz Slr Gullwing vs Lp s Hmmm, I may need to try the Benz Slr Gullwing. Seems like a great value compared to the LP S...and many other more expensive carts for that matter. As an A90 owner, I would think this cart would be a good fit for me in the speed, dynamics and neut... | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme? Why would Bob Graham knowingly produce an alignment jig that is off for the 10" & 12" arms ? How much error are we talking about ? To my ears, the alignment sounds perfect...No audible distortion through the lead out groove. Too bad Graham did... | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme? 10-29-11: DertonarmRockitman, please - don't get me wrong. Aside from increased effective mass a longer effective length version is always superior in terms of tangential error and sensibility to SRA/VTA variation due to the inevitable hills and v... | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme? 10-29-11: DertonarmRockitman, Wrm57, the 10" arm wand was - as the 12" arm wand - Graham's reaction to market request. Indeed you will have a hard time mounting a 9" Phantom (or any other 9" pivot) when the platter diameter exceeds 320 mm or when ... | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme? Good Point Wrm57. The arm lift rest is quite close to the ring with my 10". I can't imagine life w/o the ring though. Nothing like flat record playback, not to mention the other bennies. I need to take closer look at the anti-skate clearence. |
