| What did you replace your Aerial 10T's with? ..just more thinking. I too have high ceilings.. they aren't cathedral but are 14 feet high. I can't tell you enough how the midrange changed when I installed drapes by the windows. These drapes are very light and gauzy..they are silk and linen an... | |
| What did you replace your Aerial 10T's with? Nice system. The amp is a sledgehammer with not much finesse, however the cables are nice as is the preamp. I would not go with tubes...the Ariels need power. ..before you change out the speakers, try a different good amp. (I'm partial to Ayre, bu... | |
| The Better Table? Side thrust compensation is the same as anti-skate. I should tell you, that after much listening, I have concluded that anti-skate (side thrust compensation) should not be used. First of all, it's impossible to set correctly, since it is constantl... | |
| speaker recommendation 2500 or less small room I find B&W's overpriced...however...if you like that sound you have to be happy. ..just for the heck of it, listen to one of the Vandersteen offerings. I think they are very cost effective. Good luck with the Bar. My wife, brother and best fri... | |
| What did you replace your Aerial 10T's with? I don't think your speaker is at fault. I heard 10Ts with great imaging, midrange, clarity, etc. What kind of electronics and cables are you using?? | |
| Reality Cables made of? THHN makes great speaker cables...you need 4 wires - 2 plus, 2 minus, - try it. | |
| The Better Table? Cincy_bob.. yes...get rid of those feet and get the soft rubber ones.. I think they improved the sound of my VPI. Call Harry..he sent mine for free, and will probably do the same for you. Coming...is a new formulation for the ring around the drive... | |

| Anyone muffel a VPI 16.5 There is very little noise using a steam cleaner, and the results are better. | |
| Wilson Sophia II vs. Thiel CS3.7 I am using Vandersteen 5A's whith Ayre electronics. If you visit their website, Richard says that Ayre is very popular with their customers. The Vandy Quatro wood IS a better speaker...it has a different midrange driver, and a different crossover.... | |
| Rega Elys II cartridge: Is it worth the money?? I've owned lots of products built by high end audio manufacturers, among which is Rega. I have only good things to say about their products. They perform well, are cost effective, and have great durability. I would rank them near the top of truste... | |
| dead quiet Actually, Eldarford..yes. When a tuba plays a 60 Hz. tone, it is resonated on the box and in the string of the violin...that's why playing "in tune" is so important when playing in an orchestra... a tone that "rubs" against the harmonic tones of t... | |
| what is doing Arnie Nudell? The last thing I heard about Mr. Nudell was that he was very sick....I hope I'm wrong. | |
| The Better Table? Yes..there were problems at the very beginning of the rim drive's release. It seems that the motor assembly must have soft feet, and the table assembly must be solidly seated. If the old solid metal feet are used on the motor assembly there is a s... | |
| When Cleaning Records with... I have found that record cleaning is fine to do (does anyone realize that most of one's entire life is cleaning--house, car, self, etc.) however, I found that proper cartridge setup with a good cartridge is far more important for the cleanliness o... |
