| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! Hey @benzman - big Pat Metheny fan. How do you rate this album's content, not just SQ? I have so many of his albums that some of them are pretty similar to prior releases. For example, I have the From This Place recent album which I bought because... | |
| Porsche Interesting that KEF is the only manufacturer to advertise in Porsche's club magazine. I learned of a new dealer I had never heard of in 40 yers in the local market. I ended up buying a pair of speakers from him.I guess advertising works sometimes... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines Nice clip MC, as usual you are always spot on with the hilarious exaggerations from movies or TV shows.@oldaudiiophile - I didn’t imply that the fan would hurt anything. I was just saying that if you don’t ever wet the record, you wouldn’t need a ... | |
| PrimaLuna Evo 200 underwhelming You can get a great sounding integrated SS. It isn’t the technology, it is the actual make and model design and execution. You can make generalizations that tubes sound better, but it is not true in all cases, and this is even more apparent on low... | |
| Bad recordings and high end audio The best dealers are the ones who can get pretty much anything. They may lean to the more expensive items since they make a % of the sale. But they can lay out all the options.As far as MC goes, that's fine for him. I prefer to buy from someone I ... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines @bigtwin - I'm sure the spit that hits the record when you blow on it doesn't help with the cleaning. Carbon fiber bristle record brushes (not the thick ones) sweep the dust off and have a blade (if you want to call it that) that removes the dust ... | |
| TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS @thecarpathian - LMAO!I guess some people like having their stereos look like they're in a physics lab or some frankenstein basement OR.Others care about looks more than the sound. They're the old B&O type customer, but we welcome all to this ... | |
| TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS If you need to mess around with tweeters to get them to sound good to you, then you bought a partially assembled speaker kit, which is fine if that is what you want. I am not sure why Tektons get so much free publicity here. Maybe it's just becaus... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines +1 @mijostyn. Only thing I would add is that if there is an out of print record I want, I will occasionally buy it if it is NM or mint condition.i have never had one of those come back dirty. Occasionally they have a minor scratch/pop for a revo... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines @oldaudiophile- i use a very dense brush to clean my stylus maybe once a week with a slight amount of MFSL stylus cleaning fluid. That sometimes makes a difference in SQ when I can see some dust on the brush.Sounds like youve got a good tracking s... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines Wow! Talk about complicated and time consuming. Not to mention keeping track of which records were cleaned when.With all the micron talk, nobody is talking about sound quality.Since my records are shiny and in visibly excellent condition and have ... | |
| Record Cleaning Machines If you handle records properly and remove the dust with a carbon fiber brush properly before each play, the need for a RCM seems to be greatly reduced. I guess if you buy a lot of used records that are very dirty, it could come in handy. How does ... | |
| What is wrong with my system? Get a turntable and a few records and I am sure it will sound better. | |
| TEKTON IMPACT MONITORS I thought carbon fiber speakers are nirvana.... don't want to fork over the cash though. | |
| Best kept secret in AC line filtering conditioning Gotcha @wig That must be very uncommon as I have never heard of that being an issue for power conditioners. |
