| New format, dislike..... At first I was quite negative about the forum changes, but as time goes by the problems are being corrected and I am getting more comfortable with it. I am perhaps most impressed by the quick responses to complaints and questions. Somebody is ac... | |
| What vintage speaker might you use today LarryI, as a matter of fact I have tried a Jensen RP-302 tweeter to fill in on the extreme treble; however, I was never satisfied with the blend with the 802/32A. My crossover includes a small HF boost circuit that helps make the 802-8G closer to... | |
| What vintage speaker might you use today LarryI, your speaker is hardly modest. I am sure it sounds very nice by any standard. My own vintage speakers are further down the scale. As you may recall, I use a 15" Jensen P15LL woofer in a sealed cabinet similar to the Western Electric 753... | |
| What vintage speaker might you use today Doug Schroeder needs to hear an "extreme" (his word) vintage speaker system. If he does, I predict he will change his opinion that vintage is only suited for "lower end systems" (his words). To be clear I am not talking about speakers you will f... | |
| 12" Tonearms for TD-124 I used a Schick with my TD-124 using both a Denon 103R and Miyajima mono cartridge. It works ok but I encountered some noise issues with the Schick/Thorens combination, pretty much the same thing Art Dudley described in his review of the Schick. ... | |
| I Dislike new format Recent Activity no longer includes updates and comments on Virtual Systems. This is a major problem as far as I am concerned. | |
| New Forum Format Sucks Agreed! Who in their right mind thought this was an improvement? | |
| Questions on KT150 tubes What sonic differences do you hear in the KT-150s compared to the KT-120s? I have been running KT-120s in my Emotive Audio amps for a couple years but no tubes last for ever. When replacement time rolls around, I am wondering what to expect if I g... | |
| Cleaning records. How often really? Another Almost Never. I have both a Loricraft and a Nitty Gritty, and it's probably been a year since I last used either one. I do clean LPs that are really dirty but for normal records including most Ebay and used record store purchases, I just f... | |
| What vintage speaker might you use today All of the speakers I now own qualify as vintage. From oldest to newest these are:1. Custom 2-way using 15" Jensen woofer and Altec compression driver in an Altec/Western Electric 32A horn. The cabinet is modern and so are the crossover parts, but... | |
| Need Tube Preamp Warmth The Emotive Audio Sira is a seriously good preamp, and the one listed on Audiogon has the V-Cap upgrade which puts it above any of the Siras described in the reviews. | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price This is a progress report on the V-Twist wire. The V-Twist is a new DIY interconnect cable designed and distributed by Chris VenHaus of VH Audio. It is a twin lead cable where each conductor is a high purity 24 gauge solid copper wire with Teflon ... | |
| Looking for really fine cables at really low price Maxima, I haven't forgotten! I was away for a while so the V-Twist cables are still a way from being fully broken in. I now have a little over 250 hours on them but Chris VH says they need 400 to 500 hours before settling down. Apparently this is ... | |
