Loricraft Record Cleaning
Jcoehler, SMART used to have a detailed "how to use" page on their website.No cleaner came with my unit, but I have used AudioTop which doesn't work well with the Loricraft as it evaporates too quickly. I have also used Disk Doctor and RRL, which ... 
The best speaker you ever heard?
Mrtennis, Quad ESLs are good, but having owned them thirty years ago, I would not consider them the best I have heard. There is so much interaction between front end, amps, cables, and speakers that I think it is hard to say what the best speaker ... 
Loricraft Record Cleaning
Emailists, have you added the clamp on the vacuum hose? I really suspect the 25% increase in suction is an exaggeration, but I will try it. I have had my Loricraft since 2001 and still am shocked with what careful record cleaning can do for the so... 
Mac used with windows cd server problem.
I should also say that VNC is far superior to MS Remote Desk Control. 
Mac used with windows cd server problem.
I got it working with the help of an IT guy. You do have to use a switchback cable, not withstanding what Apple says. Also you need to make changes in the Sharing files folder. I thought for a brief moment that I might have to buy a Windows machin... 
Mac used with windows cd server problem.
PE, I downloaded MS RDC. It didn't work, saying either the requested computer wasn't on, that the password was wrong, or that there was a network problem. I suspect that I don't know the users name. I am checking on this now. Thanks for the help. 
Mac used with windows cd server problem.
The Mac I was going to use is OS 10.3.9 and this rdc requires OS 10.4.11. If the rdc is good, it would be worth buying OS 10.4. Have you used it? 
Best Small Speaker System You've ever Heard
The $2500/pair LSA1 Statements. I bought a pair on the spot even though I have yet to install them. 
Need opinions on super tweeters as an add-on
Johnk, I been down those paths. The only add on supertweeters that mate well with all speakers are those not coming on until 15K Hz and extending to 100K. THe Reference 3A Grand Veenas are an exception as they already have the Murata supertweeters... 
Need opinions on super tweeters as an add-on
Grannyring, a ribbon super tweeter is not a ribbon tweeter. I don't understand what you are doing. 
Goodbye CD's
I can't remember the last time I bought a cd in a store. I once or twice bought one in Best Buys but typically buy 100 or so on the internet. I could care less whether local music stores go the way of local audio dealers.Gmood1, thanks for a nice ... 
Need opinions on super tweeters as an add-on
The Muratas and Townshends, at least come on at 15K Hz and extend to 100K Hz. I heard a demonstration at CES two years ago where they played speaker with and without the Muratas being on. Furthermore they played only the Muratas while most of us w... 
Sound Application line conditioner experience?
Just found this thread. I have owned multiple Sound Application units, have always found them cleaner and faster than other ac devices, and still remember that one saved my entire system when it was on and lightning struck my water heater a mere 5... 
Best speaker cables for Reference 3a speakers
I know the Grand Veenas are extensively treated with AVM paint inside, but I don't know if their other speakers are. The Virtual Dynamics top wires are also so treated. I know what benefits there are from this technology so I would suggest that th... 
Clement Perry's new reference speaker
Mrjstark, I thought it was at least implicit in what I said that I think there is NO best speaker and NO speaker that everyone will like.
