| Power Amps for Kharma If I can add my 2 cents.My pal has a Rowland 8t,driving Kharma model 1's.He has a high res set-up as well,and is getting truly high quality sound.Particularly well controlled,and deep,tuneful bass.Also,and importantly,he gets a superb degree of ti... | |
| The Schroeder has arrived George,trust me on this.The cap tightness"thing",on the Graham, is fantasy.The cap is,actually part of the bearing assembly,and must be tightly mounted.Why anyone would not want it that way would be a mystery,to me!!Thanks,and you have a good memo... | |
| The Schroeder has arrived Thom,the Galibier pages,especially regarding the seemingly fascinating Schroeder Ref. was a fabulous read,to me.I thought the points made about the, "not necessarily an advantage",12.5 vs 9 inch arm length was quite interesting to ponder. Also,and... | |
| Triplanar vs JMW 12.5 on TNT 6 It is true that the diff. here is not great.Mass wise.Take a look at the Galibier website,he makes mention of the fact,in his opinion,that the longer lengths are not really much advantage.I'm not trying to create any contoversy.Both options are OK... | |
| Triplanar vs JMW 12.5 on TNT 6 Remember,if you chose a 12.5 inch arm,you are increasing the effective mass,which may not help,as compared to the Triplaner's shorter dimensions. | |
| The Schroeder has arrived Thom,I'm kind of sorry for my generic tennis/bass rant.It was nice of you to reply,though not necessary.I do realize that this thread/forum really should be about more specific topics,RE: your product line,as well as the Shroder(which I'm fascinat... | |
| The Schroeder has arrived Thom,you are absolutely right about getting to the ball quicker,and the shoulder turn,for a hard topspin shot.Watch Federer for the textbook look.As for me,I always considered myself an "A" player(40 yrs of hard competition),but my rackets are 12 ... | |
| Audio Research LS-15 Infincaps Audiophile 1,I and a pal had/have Audio Research SP-15 pre-amps,with built in phono.Not long ago both of us sent our units to Great Northern Sound for a major upgrade.I had previously,happily,owned the Sp-10,and Sp-11,however I liked the idea of t... | |
| The Schroeder has arrived Dear Frank,and Galibier systems, Thanks for possibly ruining my summer,here in New Jersey.I was totally happy rationalizing not having to spend any more money on this hobby,for at least another year or two,and very interested in obtaining two,new... | |
| Improving sub quality When I purchased my Rel,Sterling Trayle was still employed with Sumiko,the distributor,at the time.He strongly emphasized that I did NOT use spikes.He felt that the REL was designed to have a certain distance from the driver to floor,and the spike... | |
| The Schroeder has arrived I really wanted to finish the last 90 pages of "The Da Vinci Code",that was given to me as a birthday gift.Now,with all this delicious new stuff to read through,I'll have to hold off on "Langdon's search for the HOLY GRAIL".Thanks!! | |
| TriPlanar Tips Doug,actually I've had a ball using various types of Ceramic tiles,that I've married into differing low resonance,and cheap,equipment supports,and shelves.All sourced from Home Depot,bonded with Silicone,and various spike/type configurations.These... | |
| Sonus Faber I have a REL Stentor II,mated,flawlessly,with an Avalon Ascent(sealed box)series II.When I decided to do this,my goal was to eclipse the design decision of Avalon,in their newer use of ported designs,to add to the bass output.Boy did I make the ri... | |
| TriPlanar Tips Doug,I think Herb Papier's sucessor simply does not want to mess with a good thing,and is not the original designer,anyway.Let's face it,the arm as is,as you know,is a fabulous piece of ergonomic engineering.It also,IMO,looks incredible, on some t... | |
| NOS tubes for Sonic Frontiers Line 1 Jim,I'm glad you are getting a high level of sound from your tube investment.My pal got ripped off on some poor TELE's,so as you know,you must be careful who you buy from. I just put the Halo Dampers on my phono tubes,last week,with similar result... |
