| Sota or Technics BTW - I have the same Beatles Collection sitting on top next to my components outside the normal record area......What's the Beatles box on top? | |
| Sota or Technics Forget it - I just saw your system you posted. Pretty nice, I must say. Way beyond mine, but I am not a fan of electrostatics as they are very directional from what I hear, and the dustcover on your table is attached through those hinges which bot... | |
| Sota or Technics What do you think of the new entry level SME table for like $9K? | |
| Sota or Technics thanks @mijostyn - I beleive you - no stethoscope required. I actually spoke with Max Townshend himself (nice guy, not a real businessman though, more like a mad scientist, which is a shame, because he has some fantastic products including a turnt... | |
| Sota or Technics @mijostyn - I disagree with you. Walls do not jump with foot falls. I have a P8 on a wall shelf on top of a Townshend seismic isolation platform. So it is pretty damn isolated. The solid steel shelf is directly screwed into 4 studs and believe me ... | |
| Sota or Technics Tonearm is most important, assuming the table spins at the right speed. You can always add isolation or put it on a wall shelf.As the OP mentioned it is a Rega RB330, not 300, and this was a nice improvement a few years ago.I’d get the Sota betwee... | |
| SQ vs. Music I select the type of music and then the artist/group l like listening to. I try to rotate equally among all of the records I have of the artist, but there are a few that get skipped over or artists with only 1 or 2 albums that never seem to hit th... | |
| Paying with a cashiers check? Need advice! Pretty easy to set up PayPal. If he won’t make that small effort, forget about him. If the deal is too good to be true, it is. | |
| Schumann Resonator @mahgister - I am glad you finally came around and are willing to admit it may be affecting you and not the sound. I have no opinion, I only beleive in FACTS.@sbayne - you are a helluva researcher. How many of those articles talk about SG effects... | |
| Schumann Resonator @bemused - I don’t own a pink noise generator and my CD player hasn’t been hooked up in15-20 years.I agree with @theaudiotweak. Measure the sound with a microphone with and without the SGs playing normal audible music, not pink noise. I don’t know... | |
| Schumann Resonator @bemused,@mapmanI am just trying to get some agreement on whether these things change the actual measurable sound in the room. Not how we process it.I am not an acoustical or sound engineer (but admittedly am an engineer who believes in science an... | |
| Schumann Resonator Of course a magnetic field creates electric current, Physics 101. Just like current creates a magnetic field, especially in wires in loops.I would love to see someone actually measure sound (which is what we can agree on here is what matters) with... | |
| Schumann Resonator This discussion is priceless. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you think it makes your system sound better, then it does.Foreign governments tortured hotel guest with inaudible sound waves that got headaches and got physically sick not k... | |
| Remarkably better sound possible with just 1 system component change? Keep the speakers at least 3 feet from the wall behind it. I always thought mine were until I was looking at some acoustic panels and traps (GIK acoustics told me it wasn't worth doing the limited things I can do because of my multiple listening p... | |
| Top down or bottom up? Just asking... Would you rather own a Mercedes or a Toyota? Stupid question. It depends on the model. I might prefer a Lexus (Toyota) LS5xx over an E series Mercedes at a similar price point. There are different processes, even factories in certain cases. Market... |
