| Cable recommendations for cary slp-98p & cary 120s You already know that Kimber works well with your equipment. The signature stays the same, as one ascends up the Kimber line. You just get more and better, of everything good, along the way. I've got both 1030 and 1130's in my system now, and have... | |
| Soundstaging test tracks: Height LOL! It's unusual to have a lung capacity test, on an audio demo disc, but- there you have it. Leave it to David Chesky, to be comprehensive. | |
| Soundstaging test tracks: Height You can download this test, to check your system's performance, in that regard: (http://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_ledr.php) The 'Listening Evironment Diagnostic Recording' is also included on this Chesky CD: (http://www.discogs.com/Various-Che... | |
| Upgrading Odyssey audio Khartago Why not talk to Odyssey and ask about having the Khartago upgraded? If yours wasn't hot-rodded when originally built; I know they can double the capacitance in the power supply, and offer 52 driver board mods as well. Have you considered going dua... | |
| Best amp for 6 ohms speakers In that price range, a used Hafler is probably the best sounding bet. Any of them can drive a 2 ohm load, all day long, at rated power. Having the power supply caps replaced, on the older ones, would be a good idea. Type, "eBay Hafler power amp" i... | |

| Cartridge break in Varies with the cartridge/compliance material. Don't be surprised if you have to readjust the VTA, along the way. | |
| Looking to add warmth If you don't want accuracy, but rather warm coloration: just sub out some carbon composition resistors almost anywhere in your signal path. NOTE: What some perceive as, "warmth", is sometimes simply noise/distortion(btw: what applies to guitar amp... | |
| Viagra for Your Ears? ROTF/LMAO! Can't help but wonder if one's EARgasms are any more intense? | |

| looking for a speaker posts tighting "wrench"? There are a plethora of binding post styles out there. Some manufacturers have their own design of tightening tool, or design their posts to be finger-tightened only. Many 5-ways have a hex type tightener/nut. ie: I have always installed Vampire ... | |
| VDH the FROG on VPI Scout Lyra Dorian VDH recommends a tonearm effective mass of 6 to 10g, for the Frog. If your Scout has the JWM-9 arm; it's effective mass is 8.6g. Should be an excellent setup. (http://www.vandenhul.com/products/phono/the-frog-r-series) | |
| Anyone here have a memory ? I think we're all Bozos on this bus! OK- Maybe not ALL of us....... BTW: They made a DVD(of a PBS program) called, 'Weirdly Cool'. It MAY induce flashbacks. Check out their catalog, bottom of the page, here:(http://firesigntheatre.com/index.php) f... | |
