| I'd like to upgrade my speaker wire Well said, Elizabeth. | |
| I'd like to upgrade my speaker wire Twenty foot cables are long enough for the topology to matter. According to the Maxwell Equations, inductance is your enemy for speaker cables, and you don't have to worry about capacitance. That means speaker cables which consist of two ribbons f... | |
| Stereophile Profiles Carpets and Curtains again .... Right on, JK. | |
| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? Yes, it is certainly possible. But it’s not for the lazy or the gullible. Whart and atmasphere discuss the issues and, characteristically, stick to the science. See the US cleaning threads for details on record cleaning. For what it’s worth, I agr... | |
| Power Amp advice I ran Tympanis with Bryston, and they sounded good. Especially for the price. | |
| Is a Bryston 3B SST2 enough for Magnepan 3.7i or 20.7? Random memory trace just surfaced. I used the Bryston 3B SST on one pair of Tympani II, I believe it was, and a 4B SST on another pair of Tympanis, running in parallel. Could not tell the difference at moderate listening levels. | |
| Cartridge Impedance @rauliruegas The OP is talking about loading his cartridge at his phono stage. When you post, "LOMC cartridges are not sensitive to load impedance, are sensitive to inductance changes," you imply that impedance does not affect the sound. That is i... | |
| Cartridge Impedance @lewm Nice summary.@rauliruegas Not true. My Koetsu (LOMC) responds to load resistance, but not load capacitance. I usually run it at 1K or more, with internal resistance at 5R. | |
| Cartridge Impedance I suspect that the OP is talking about resistance. | |
| Ugrade-itis - is there a cure? Experiment has always indicated a way forward. Have teflon caps? Go to vacuum.TT motor make noise? Design and build your own. The madness is endless. | |
| Cartridge Impedance More prominent. | |
| What about diamond cantilever/stylus combo @mulveling Thank you for the detailed comparison. It certainly confirms the wife's intuitions!As to longevity - well, that's the reason I suspect that UltraSonic record cleaning pays for itself. In spades in my case. | |
| I'm a beginner Picked up the Panasonic UB9000 this afternoon. It's very good with my Pioneer Elite.DVD's of black and white TV is better even than on my Linn Unidisk - the grey scales are graduated into finer increments. Far better in this respect than my older ... | |
| Koetsu Rosewood - Best/safest way to clean stylus Ah - the Koetsu demands a DRC burgundy. | |
| Koetsu Rosewood - Best/safest way to clean stylus I use high purity vodka every 5 hours or so. Tilt the Koetsu down and brush carefully. |
