| HDCD music suggestions??? The two HDCD are Drum Hat Buddha and Tanglewood Tree. Hard to describe but very good. | |
| Subwoofer resonance isolation platform vs footers. I use threaded Audio Points from Star Sound with my REL Stadium subs. I am on concrete and they still helped. I used the 2" but the 1.5" might even have been better. | |
| VPI phono cables. Is there better synergy? I have used the VPI cables with my tables, Aries, Scoutmaster and Scout and find them quite good for the price, which makes me happy, being a dealer. They can be bettered for more money; I have had very good results with the VDH The First, Metal S... | |
| Indian Music? Second looking at the records of Ali Akbar Khan. | |
| Speaker Re-cap. How do you know when? Getting better caps can also improve the sound. Silver wire or higher quality copper can also be a big improvement. | |

| phono preamp with volume? I have been using my Blue Circle 707 with an Audio Synthesis passive preamp and it works fine. Line stages have their pluses and minuses but you will get a higher level of performance cheaper with passive IF THE REST OF YOUR SYSTEM IS COMPATIBLE W... | |
| Your input please: Using sub on 2 channel amp Go with REL. If you use speaker level it will add bass without changing the sound of your main speakers. Will improve the sound even if there is not a lot of bass present. | |
| US only sales WHY??? Even if you list for US only you still get inquiries from other countries. I just got one from a buyer in Asia with a track record asking if I would ship there and offering to pay with wire transfer. I told him I would for my asking price and neve... | |
| SME 3009 wood arm ?? Email SME for info. | |
| Improved my VPI Super Scoutmaster w/Rim drive I am using the Aries extended with the single motor flywheel and did something similar. I removed the rubber feet from the motor and substituted 3 .2 Audio Points from Star Sound. I am using the threaded 1.5 Audio Points in place of the VPI feet. ... | |
