| Dialectric grease any thoughts At that time, I thought, How did I break my system, what have I done lately to make it so non-musicial. I had in the past used the original Ultra-connect formula and really enjoyed the results. However I lost the original and bought the new. After... | |
| is there really a need for two subs? Wave launch, and phase intergration of stereo subs is a major part of the blending process. This is mostly a time consuming problem. The process can take much longer when your main speakers have 2 woofers in each cabinet. These woofers, one loadin... | |
| is there really a need for two subs? Actually two subs are much harder to blend than one sub. Phase relationships are the key when using stereo speakers. | |
| is there really a need for two subs? Members we are, I hope, writing about bass in music, which we have all heard, and not dinosaur footsteps which even I am not old enough-- to have ever heard.---Two sub Tom | |
| is there really a need for two subs? I have been using two subs since the year 1981. Stereo subs greatly increase soundstage size, shape, and realism. | |
| Dialectric grease any thoughts The latest generation of Ultraconnect polluted my system!!! Took a long time to remove any trace of it. Audioquest made a running change in the original formula at the request of a certain angency. | |
| What is vibration isolation for? You cannot fight mother nature so the best thing to do, is to let it vibrate. I will be happy to tell you why.. later, but for now I have to meet a client. Great discussion...Tom | |
| What is vibration isolation for? Isolation in the purist term does not exsist, so why waste your time. Speaking of time,everything moves and vibrates. These artificially induced motions create their own current of noise which are regurgitated, and again misproduced by your equipm... | |
| Personal amp evolution Way back machine takes me to a pair of Phase Linear 400's driving 4 EPI mini-towers. Next stop was a pair of ESS transmission lines with RTR electrosatic tweeters bi-amped with ARC amps. Then onto Magnaplanar tympani 3a with the same ARC amps. Nex... | |
| Any non-box or non-black grey amplifiers? How about a shape that is designed to improve the sound. Wow! someone actually thinking outside the box. The pun was intended. I have been using for the last six months Harmonic Precision Mono amps . These amps by their design shape are able to di... | |
| Copper Deterioration? Mechanical integrity of any cable product is almost as important as the internal composition. Copper based cables will not oxidize if conductors are shielded properly and the joint at the termination is hermetically sealed. Obviously the terminati... | |
| Need a "short list" of best Subwoofers for M.L.'s Settled on a pair of Paradigm Servo 15's. They are very fast and musical. I run my Dunlavy SCIV's full range and only add the subs for support and weight below 50hz. I would put any and all subs on Audiopoints or Sp-1 platforms .These devices make... | |
| Unbelievable Indeed The possible explanation of the brass wall plate is as follows.The brass wall plate is acting in benefit in two ways. Brass is going to serve as a RFI shield at the wall to room junction. The brass wall plate will greatly increase the size of the ... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit Dave,the solder is called Riehl Copper Solder named after its composition designer Brent Riehl. This solder has no lead and no flux. I got it to flow well. You do need to have a quality gun with adjustable temperature. This is, by far the best sou... | |
| Sakura Systems OTA Cable Kit On one other thread I commented that I use the same wire thru out my system. Internally as well as externally. .Almost all the connections are done with the same copper based solder as well. We all speak of time alignment and coherence. This rathe... |
