| What's the weak link in my system? Did you remove the power conditioning? If so, what were the results? If not, why? | |
| Vibration Issues / Turntable Decisions Wall rack all the way. I built a custom one that extends farther out into room, cut the back of my stereo cabinet out and the turntable looks like it is on a cabinet shelf but it is actually just above it. See my system page for a picture. | |
| Do I have to spend $4000 plus to get a better sounding speaker than GET model 7 ? I love my ProAc Studio 148 floor standers, which were just over $3000 and use the same tweeter as the Response line. Too bad they stopped making them. ProAc Studio 140 mkI are the same speaker without the phase plug. | |

| Need suggestions please! Electrical noise in my system and it's driving me crazy! @gdhal, glad the CMX-2 worked for you also. I’ve tried furman, a custom made DC blocker, PS Audio humbuster and upc-200, plus others. PS Audio helped cut the DC hum but all killed dynamics except the CMX-2. | |
| Need suggestions please! Electrical noise in my system and it's driving me crazy! I've fought DC transformer hum since I've moved into my house 7 years ago with 3 different preamps and multiple conditioners / filters. The only one that I found to help the DC situation without killing system dynamics is the Emotiva CMX-2 DC Bloc... | |
| We've owned B&W speakers since late 80's @oldtonew2112, how did you do with the insurance company and the payout on the incident? It seems like there was just a thread discussing whether we need additional coverage for media and equipment or should our general homeowners policy cover eve... | |
