Tyler Decade D1s
Dawg can't agree more on improvements after the two hundred hour mark. I'm guessing things will steadily get better through the five hundred hour area. You're assessment of bass response is right on, another thing is how these big boys disappear i... 
Tyler Decade D1s
All more than 230 hrs now and D1 now has evolved into a most enjoyable sounding speaker. My Linbrook Sigs. are going and i will be keeping the D1s. Will post more on my experience with D1 and how it won over LSS. 
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier
Victor i was checking about the upgrade to 2.1. Likely what Rx8man has in mind. No big deal for sure as i am quite happy with my AH preamp. Thanks for responding. Mike 
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier
I emailed Victor and Audio Horizons several times in the past 5 months about the upgrade with out a response from AH. Mighty strange i would say. Hoping all is OK with Victor and Joseph. I'm a happy music lover with my 2.1nrb with early 60s Siemen...

Steam cleaning records 2
Thats an alternative method Crem but i dont think you can get the best effort or result by holding a lp in your hand steaming. A lazy susan would be a better idea. That way you would get a even spray while spinning with the other hand.Now that i'v...

George and all using a 16.5 i've started putting folded paper towels on the back of the unit between the glass top and back wall, to collect over spray and fluids that spill on the top of 16.5. This will help keep from getting fluid inside of the ...

Tyler Decade D1s
Dawgcatching you are not going to have a problem with room size with D1. Thats a big room big you have i would say. What your going to like is how D1 fills that room up with your favorite music though. A real enjoyable night of music last night pl...

Have near 115 hours playing time now. D1s appear to have no problems with setup. I have not tried to get real technical with setup but dont think D1s will be difficult to get positioned. Making small moves for better listening and they are easily ...
