| Anti Skating adjustment It seems that too many of you get over excited about Anti-Skate. It is not nearly as important...or even important at all. Simply add a very tiny bit of anti-skate if it makes you feel less nervous. The force that one corrects with anti-skate is c... | |
| VPI Rim Drive vibrations Krell303...Running the table for 10 years won't help it. you need Bearpaws or something similar to eliminate the wobble. If you have wooden floors, I would make sure that the table that the VPI rests on is very solid...that's about all you can do.... | |

| Why do you Pick a Certain Speaker producer? Inna...when my wife died a few years ago, I needed a present and bought the big B&W's because of their looks, and secondarily because of their reputation. I really should have listened to them at the store, because after trying many things to ... | |

| great 70s country lps...audophile grade One of the very best - maybe THE best recorded album I have is called Class of 55 with Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, and Johnny Cash....backup vocals by the Judds, June Carter Cash, John Fogerty, etc. It also is a wonderfully enterta... | |
| VPI Rim Drive vibrations Macauak....That's what Harry told me....didn't work. The cure I noted above is the only way to completely solve the problem that I know of. The increase in purity, dynamics, soundstage, etc. is magnitudes better than stock. | |
| Kimber, Audioquest, Wireworld Sky/Everest...wonderful stuff. | |
| VPI Rim Drive vibrations Thanks for the information about the tera stone. Let me know how it works out | |
