Clearaudio Concept and Audio Technica AT6006R tonearm lifter???
     My first Safety Raiser cost me $19.95 and treated my Unitrac arm very gently, for 30 years.      Ten years ago it got a bit too energetic, so: found a NOS/NIB replacement and paid $129.00 (gladly).     The box still had the $19.95 tag on it....

@audphile1 -       I'll bet stanwine's pre is broken in by now.                Just a guess!                       😉  
Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording
@bdp24 -     During the playback of a track (whether in recording or mixing), the engineer will run his tape, A/B-ing the sound with that of a current best-selling song. He then manipulates the sound of his recording with a number of pieces of o... 
Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording
     Joe Morello's Zildjians, on my 60's, Columbia pressing of Time Out (Take Five) and Mick Fleetwood my first (1977) Nautilus pressing of Rumours (Dreams).       A good LP for telling if a system is resolving (ie: between Paiste and Zildjian, a... 
Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording
@bdp24 -                                                                 +1        Gotta wonder: how many can tell the difference (in sound) between, say Turkish and chinese Zildjians?        Between a Paiste and Zildjian, or whether it's got r... 
This place is getting sloooooooweeeerrr......
No problems here, but then: I have a 20 year old IBM ThinkPad (Adblock Plus, >375Mbps upload/download speed & SSD may be helping, though).  
Technics SU-G700 and Acoustats ?
             Good catch!      A number of Class D amps have feedback loops and output filters; that will handle the earlier ESLs, with their high capacitance and low impedance @ high freq loads.      Much depends on how those are configured and ... 
Technics SU-G700 and Acoustats ?
      The 1+1's minimum recommended power= 70WPC @ 4 Ohms and your Technics is rated for 140 @ that impedance.                       Don’t try to rock the house and you should be fine.                                                     Happy li... 
What might a good to great 20uF film/foil capacitor for a woofer.
@archiecb       Not certain which inductors you still need, but: I have a pair of these, somewhere around here:  https://www.mundorf.com/audio/en/shop//MCoil+CFC14+AirCore/?card=5656        If you're still in your x-over's design stage: I would...

Cable design is a lot like creating a pizza
     A number of cable construction topics were discussed in the thread linked below.    Virtually: everything/every objection any poster could come up with.           Might be worth the review, to anyone interested in the baking of a better, er.... 
Cable design is a lot like creating a pizza
      Anyone needing a rationale for experimenting with new cables in their system and/or feeling dissuaded by the Church of Denyin'tology's antiquated electrical doctrines: take heart!      Many new electrical facts have been established in the ... 
Silver Speaker Cables
      KUDOS: to all those that have experimented with new and better cabling.      Trusting your own ears and abilities to discern reality are ALL it takes, to find whether or not they belong in your system.       The Church of Denyin'tology has...
