Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine?
Since it seems like there is too much heat in people’s eyes to be balanced about their views (I said seems, not anything else, it could simply be the simplicity of the given written statments, not what people entirely mean), i decided to remove al... 
Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine?
Re the response, to what is gong on in the world, and how it will affect Europe. It's a set up. Whatever you say guys, whatever you say...... the behavior and acts of the system has nothing to do with the personal future of the USA anymore. It's... 
ADCOM HC/E II cartridge mothballed 25 years ago.
The suspension can fail, though. it depends on the rubber, and how it was stored, where it orignated from, how it was handled and applied during manufacturing, etc. multiple aspects to the story, in all cases, so one story of failure or success in... 
I wasn’t sure where to classify this…
Eaton brand Pure Sinewave re-generators are all over eBay used. they will take the 120VAC 60hz from the generator, turn it into DC, and then back into perfectly regulated 120VAC at 60Hz. they can also be used on your audio system, all day long, e... 
Albums you do not get...a plea for help and understanding
The entire Zappa Catalogue. (except for Hot Rats. I be groovin' that one) Same for The Dead.  
Hot Rats
I never liked Frank's music at all (all very 'meh' to me), until I heard Hot Rats.  
Is Mark Levinson still considered up there with the best of the best?
John Curl designed a number of early Levinson products. John also has some really interesting stories concerning that area of his audio design life....  
Is this a scam?
The reason they want to send their shipper to your door is that you would have no recourse to 'stop shipment' and initiate a 'return  to sender's base' if it all goes fraudulent in the middle of it being shipped.   If they initiate shipping, it ... 
Buying New TV Need A Soundbar Recommendation
we like Star Trek series and other sci-fi. Speaking of Sci-fi. the film serenity, which was Joss Wheedon's way of tying off the sci-fi series 'firefly'. In it there is a thing called 'Reavers'. You'd have to see the movie to understand the con... 
AudioMagic Fuses Bad Quality I Do Not Recommend!!
It's Jerry... the perennial IP theft machine the highest order. This hack has been selling dangerous fuses since the dawn of modified fuse times. Not surprised that he made something dangerous and..illegal. as in 'not certified for resale'. As i... 
Balanced versus single ended
Then there is the argument that the AES48, as an application is a sonic limitation in itself, and is part and parcel and core to the idea that all AES48 applications have little noted differences in their sonic signatures. I’m not stating that th... 
Does remote control degrade the sound of tube preamps?
$600 to $1,000 for the Volume Control? Good Grief! No wonder the reviewers take the time to talk about them. I thought the cost was $50 to $100 before we start talking about ‘knob feel.’ It might be a $100 cost item, but by the time we get to p... 
Top Songs You Can Sing Along with When Highly Intoxicated (or Other Compromised State)
@russ69   It’s not all over, actually. What you might try or consider, is trying to find that gap or valley that the range of octaves is hiding in. I’m guessing you are having a hard time modulating those octaves in the middle, where your voice... 
How old is too old (for SS gear)?
Andromeda amps benefit from re-capping, just like the rest do. Like many good designs, they can ’hold on’ and continue to deal with the complexities of audio signal manipulation and the overall control of the electrical pathways involved, but... s... 
Does remote control degrade the sound of tube preamps?
Quality wise, there  are not that many extreme quality 'motorized volume pots' out there. Recall the elaborate mechanism put in place by Charles & crew at Ayre, for their 'peak quality' remote control preamp. It's not just isolation and sepa...
