Reality Cables made of? I found that THHN sounds better not solder...but then, Gregg might be better at soldering than I... | |
faint precession of sound on vinyl Shadone...I am a professional musician and can tell you flat out that pre-echo should not be there. It is not natural and is sometimes a serious fault. I believe this is from the storage of the tape when a the adjacent layer picks up the magnetic ... | |
importance of interconnect from scout sig to pre I'm using Anti-Cable XLR balanced from my Superscout to the preamp. Paul Speltz suggested a double shielded interconnect. I tried that and a regular Anti-Cable balanced interconnect. There was no need for the double shielded version ..and it sound... | |
VTA adjustment for VPI 10.5 tonearm Hi Sonofjim... I use nothing for anti-skate at all...not even the Twist (Chubby Checker notwithstanding). I know that VPI arms can be a pain to adjust, but if you are inquisitive..just detach your monofilament to detect any difference. If you hear... | |
rega 3-24 verses other similiar priced tables Frank_SM The P5 is 1295 and the VPI with JMW 9 tonearm is 1600. We are saying the same thing...to sqeeze a bit more from the pocketbook and get a bit more turntable. I don't doubt you like your Rega, I have a P25 for years and like it too...the fa... | |
"Best" of the "Universal" players ???. I'm using the Ayre C5xe Universal player. I think it's wonderful, but there is a caution. It sounds its best using balanced mode. | |
Help needed: speakers for desktop ..just today I got via E-mail, a magazine called Playback. This is published by "The Absolute Sound" and "Perfect Vision". In the current issue they review quite a few desktop speakers. | |
VTA adjustment for VPI 10.5 tonearm By the way...my point about the VTF setup is this. For each cartridge, there is one "best" VTF. I believe that tracking force is different for every single cartridge. The manufacturer might specify 1.5-2.5 grams, however, within that range, there ... | |
VTA adjustment for VPI 10.5 tonearm Powerdoctor..the new VPI feet for the rim drive are very clearly soft. I found this to be very important for the rim drive to operate at its best (I'm sure next week there will be something to make it better).. anyway, the felt under the harder ru... | |
rega 3-24 verses other similiar priced tables I would get the VPI..then you can always add upgrades to it to make it even better if you wish. | |
A Little Technical Help with the VPI Strobe I used to manufacture these power cords myself. I don't any longer, however, Audio Connection in Verona, NJ might still have a few left. (G&G Discoveries) I'm sure John will send you one with your credit card number on approval. They are relat... | |
ipod classic vs nano The classic is hard drive driven, and the nano has a flash drive. The classic has better sound...use the best earbuds you can find. | |
I believe I spotted in I heard them.. They are surprisingly good for B&O, however they are WAY too bass heavy for me. | |
VTA adjustment for VPI 10.5 tonearm Here I am again....by the way...85, 60,42, means nothing. All those figures are relative to your particular setup. When you spin the dial around 360 degrees you are back to the same number, but with a different VTA. | |
VTA adjustment for VPI 10.5 tonearm oops - forgot something on my post above.... For the best sound don't install/use the anti-skate gizmo. |
