| Spatial Audio X3 Open Baffle Loudspeakers Good to know, I was behind the curve(that's a major departure).....thanks! | |
| Spatial Audio X3 Open Baffle Loudspeakers I'm using Emerald Physics speakers, which Spatial's designer(Clayton Shaw) created earlier. Virtually identical tech. If interested in hearing the presentation, offered by an open baffle and coincident mid/tweet design and you're anywhere arou... | |
| Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8...OMG!! @decooney- If what you have in your preamp, doesn’t include a pair of the following(50’s, Sylvania VT-231, T-plate, two hole, bottom-gettered, green label), try some. They have excellent clarity/air, strong bottom end(without coloring the mids) an... | |
| tube recommendations for audio research LS-16? I’m familiar with the LS16. If you put these in one channel, and listen to one channel at at time, in Mono: you can compare their tone, etc, with whatever else you have. You won’t get the sound stage picture(etc), that stereo would provide, of cou... | |

| Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8...OMG!! Anyone that’s paid an iota of attention to Physics or Cosmology, from modern Astronomy or Astrophysics to Quantum Mechanics, knows: there are much harder to explain/more bazaar things, going on all around us, than the phenomena we observe, regardi... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? @uberwaltz- Yeah; they were kinda special and now, pretty much unobtainium(popular and rare does that). Had I known then: I woulda/shoulda/coulda had mine retipped and kept it. That’s one of very few components, that I’ve sold and wish I hadn’t. P... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? Earlier; geoffkait asked, "Is this where low effective mass of the tonearm comes in?" Since 1980; I’ve been using low mass Magnepan arms and high compliance cartridges. Among the reasons I went that way, is the lower VTF at which many higher compl... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? @lewm- I’ve never, in the last(slightly over) four decades of listening to vinyl, experienced any loss of fidelity, to, "super-imposed alterations in pitch and timing due to stylus drag, belt creep, and the like." In the years prior; some had to b... |
