| Mapleshade bedrock stands for large monitors Peter Snell's patent from the mid 70's had a rendition that predicted the floor speaker inneraction and the geometry to overcome this problem. Mr Snell's patent is a thing of beauty and describes in detail a speaker and many of its boundary reacti... | |
| The CD player is dead....... Going to take a couple Zanies and smoke the peace pipe with my neighbors daughter and explain how resonance control is beneficial within the hemisphere and makes for better coupling. Probably be playing a cd in the round. Tom | |

| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil As a former commissioned salesman I request a % of that increase on every Duelund component sold hereafter. Thank you for your keen observation and your gratuitous response. I will forward you my direct deposit information. Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Years ago I had built up ladder type resistor bridges made from the then state of the art Vishay resistors to replace the cheap low quality sand cast resistors in my SC4's. When I told John Dunlavy of what I was about to do he said it would make n... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The Z's I used to replace a few of the Dales's in the Wyred4 Sound preamp volume control.. select values that are in my normal listening range made for a vey nice improvement in noise floor and transparency. Plus there are ones that are always eng... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Ait I wondered who would post first about this catch point. I agree... this was an experiment based on effects of damping and their side effects. All of this was done 8 or so years ago. Since then we use brass shot as the fill material around the ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Sherod the wire I used in the cabinet and everywhere else has a small insulated cavity around the conductor that was filled with the same steel bearing I experimented with inside the crossover. The wire could be overfilled to the point where it to... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil You want to minimize the storage time by tensioning the components of the crossover to a mother board such as Ironwood or brass terminated to ground...the floor with single piece footers, preference of brass or bronze. I have added bags of steel s... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil You will want to tension and mechanically hard mount the external crossover components but not damp them with some type of soft pour material or silicon. The whole assembly then needs to be coupled to good old Mother Earth for resonance to pass th... | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Norm,Let me know when you land back in Texas I will send you a recording of breakin as it happens and the residual memory and disapation left behind from the exchange of one coupling device to another. Tom | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? There is breakin with some footers. Depends on material makeup, geometry of device and the mass of the unit sitting atop the footer. Some components will over a period of time develop a vibrational pattern that will exist even when a highly resolu... | |
| Good Radio Shack FM Antennae Reference was back to some's audio history.. 8 to 10 years previous when Terk had amplified FM antenna that retailed for 90 american dollars pre Best Buy. Even then the standard vhf rabbit ears were a better performer and represented more justice ... | |
| Good Radio Shack FM Antennae Radio Shack VHF rabbit ears the replacement kind for your TV. FM frequencys equal chn 7 on TV so for 10 dollars you can have great FM. Better than any Terk I have ever used at 90 dollars. Even work in customers basement locations. Passive. Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I agree a little "tizz" or noise can go along way in making a soundstage larger and more hi-fi dramatic. These phase issues that many products carry in their signal path make things exciting at first until the listener can audibly decode that they... |
