| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Supposedly, some of the ultrasonic cleaners I see advertise no rinsing is necessary. I suppose with a flow agent, the cleaning solution should sheet right off. Maybe a chemist here can explain the no rinse ads I see. | |
| Schiit Stjarna - Listing experience I haven't heard that preamp, but I do have a couple of products from Schiit Audio, and they are very good products. No middle man keeps the prices low. | |
| Factory Teflon Cap upgrade for Conrad Johnson Premier Five I didn't think about the electrolytic power supply caps, that is a good point to bring that idea up! They are certainly old enough. The Teflon caps replace the film caps in the unit, so this is just a sound quality improvement. I am not sure w... | |
| Sequerra Reference FM Tuner vs …. Accuphase T-1000, MD 108T, etc O-oooo nice! I live in a fringe area, gosh, even cell service is questionable here. So, good FM is more or less a pipe dream. But if you got the big bucks, I would say get one and check it out for a few days. That is a lot of Moolah to not lis... | |
| Revelation Audio Labs (RAL) - Buyers Beware! Thanks for your update. | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Thanks! Will do. | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Update: The iSonic CS6.1-Pro Motorized Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaner I bought from Amazon was sent back. I checked the iSonic website (https://isonicinc.com/) and I discovered they have a more powerful model, the iSonic CS6.2-Pro Motorized Ult... | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Looks like I can't type! | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Yes, it has a heater, one of the settings controls the water temperature. Since I got it on Amazon with Prime, it is easier to return it and buy another one. I think I will buy it directly from iSonics. The box that arrived was seriously trashe... | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies I did purchase the ISonics machine from Amazon. It seems to clean okay, but the heater doesn't work. After 30 minutes, the water was still room temp. Most likely it was damaged in shipment, as the box was totally and completely trashed when it ... | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Thanks, that was most useful! | |
| Recommendations for speakers cable cover. There are some carbon fiber sleeves that work reasonably well for your speaker cables. The carbon really eats up that rf energy. Do a search for them online, several places have them for sale in various sizes. At one time I found some 16awg coa... | |
| ISP and Sound Quality Good idea. I will switch video over this evening and see how it compares. The only thing on either network was the music I was streaming. Desktop was sleeping and the laptop was off. | |
| Tonearms - SME 3012, Jelco, or Schick? BTW, I only have a few mono records. These are from Mom's estate, so mostly big band, 1930's to 1950's jazz. Some are in very good shape, some are not. I thought about a mono cartridge but for the few albums I have, it doesn't make much sense t... | |
| Tonearms - SME 3012, Jelco, or Schick? Thanks for all the information! Very helpful indeed. I will look at all the recommendations. Cartirdges - It will be a moving coil, most likely a Umami Blue or ML, possibly a Dyanvector DV-20X2L or a DRT-XV-1s. No SPU's although having one int... |
