| Clement Perry's new reference speaker First off,I see NO reason for anyone to be defensive about something they like!Personal preference is fine by me,and it is very nice to have a "general invite" defending a particular system(I,myself would not be put on such a limb).Yet,and yet,it ... | |
| Time between playing the same LP Funny,but what would I do about my own repetitive usage of reference discs,which must have repeat plays during the voicing of a new cartridge,or arm? I have used the same LP's on numerous repeat plays,for years!NO problems what-so-ever! Of course,... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Pedrillo,my previous arm was the Graham 2.2(I think you have this...no?).I liked it alot! The Phantom I can comment on now,as my friend owns it,with almost the exact system as me.It is superb,and a bit more forgiving(as to fluid)from the 2.2. HUGE... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Rushton,please understand that I am ONLY "scoping out" thoughts,and feedback from experienced folks lurking here.I will not be able to add anything of substance,IMO! I am simply intrigued by this new tweak.If it turns up anything that can better m... | |
| Clement Perry's new reference speaker Let me quote from a recent conversation with the "down to earth,but GREAT Sid Marks"...."If I cannot hear something in my own room,and compared to my current component,then it is meaningless"!! This should be audiophile lore. | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? A mutual friend of both myself,and my pal with the Furutech demag unit,has thrown a fly into the equation.He ststes that since my Furutech demag pal has so much static(all year round),the improvements of using the device could also be reducing sta... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? How about the possibility of placing some kind of wand,or attachment to a record cleaning machine(easy DIY project)that can kill two birds with one stone(glue a Talisman,or magnets,or whatever)?Any thoughts?I'd love this,as I believe there is too ... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Pedrillo,I have no idea what unit he owns,but he did look seriously at the issue.The unit he got (for an apartment)is made in Germany,and cost him five hundred bucks.I must assume it is very good.The problem is that my friend lives on the 22nd sto... | |
| How many LPs is enough? I have met collectors,over the years who have told me they had to take out storage space to house their collections. Take a look at the AVguide website.There is an article entitled "The World's Greatest Audiophile".In it you meet a collector who n... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Well,as of now my own plan of attack is set!Since I have to go over to my friend's home(who owns the Furutech)to pick up my Phantom,when it comes in,I will definitely bring some of my Lp's along.He has many of the same records,so we will do a cont... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Thanks,but if my hair starts to fall out I know who to blame it on! -:) Best. | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Pedrillo,"my man"!Hope there IS a HE-2008 in NYC,and we can say hello again!!Yes,you are correct!!HUMIDITY problem at my pal's place! My problem, often times,is I am posting during work hours,and on the fly!!One reason for spelling errors,and many... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? OK,I'm getting sold on the Talisman(much less money,and real estate than the Furutech,which my friend still loves btw). A few questions on it...Doug,do you use the Talisman?If so,do you use it away from turntable?I don't like the idea of usage nea... | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? Hmm,my RD-2 does work on my CD's.Maybe I'll have to check out the Talisman,for LP's.Alot cheaper than the Furutech! | |
| Magnetization & Demagnetization any conclusions? I'd be a bit careful about proclaiming the demag of LP's as universally good.I don't know about the Talisman,but though the Furutech did improve some of the LP's we played at a friend(who owns one),it definitely made some discs sound a bit bright ... |
