Turntable and Rack vibration control I use a 100lb concrete block, then a sheet of felt, then a marble counter top, all mounted on a heavy duty butchers block table with DIY spikes underneath. I have a pier and beam house, but I paid some kids to crawl under the house and install som... | |
Amps Always On - System Power Up Sequence When I had solid state I left everything on all the time. Never any problems. Now that Ive got tubes, I turn them off but leave the source components on, (no tubes here) Ive always heard that the enemy of tubes is the surge when you turn it on. On... | |

Also classic 'tear in your beer' country. I learned to appreciate those songs as three minute soap operas.I won't bore you with detai... | |
Which one do I buy Pre Ject Debut III or Rega P1?? Ive had a Debut III for several years, for Christmas I gave myself an 'upgrade', Rega p1. what a piece of junk.
