| Wyred STP-SE : Break In Times Wc65Mustang/Audiofeil you are correct..and who are you today? I do sell what I believe in and use all the time. Can't imagine mounting a transformer on bowling balls or even bearings. I also buy brass fasteners from the local supply chain to use i... | |
| Wyred STP-SE : Break In Times Clearly you want to remove all the steel fasteners and replace with brass... Tom | |
| Wyred STP-SE : Break In Times Rpw,I replaced all the steel chassis fasteners with those of musical brass. Between the actual transformer and the chassis I placed 3 Audiopoint .2's on 3 Audiopoint APCD2's all of brass. This was all tensioned and secured with a brass rod and loc... | |
| Wyred STP-SE : Break In Times I agree with Face. There are a couple of simple internal mods to make it better yet. Tom | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? If you can reduce the material and surface hysteresis such as the example of the cryo'd LP the stylus should have greater resolution capability. In this way vibration will be given greater and more defined direction...there will be less false dire... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? People mistakenly reduce vibration in many if not most audio components. There is a method some use in the collection and transfer of this reactance in the reduction of perceived excess energy. Vibration can be given direction. My preference is to... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? When a device is cryo'd its molecules are relaxed into their natural atomic state. This new and original state is permanent unless the device's structure is reprocessed again by annealing.If a trumpet player says his recently cryo'd instrument is ... | |
| Cryogenic treatment of an LP? So cryo'd bed springs would be more reactive and be stronger than their untreated counterparts? Especially under audio components. Of course for the best sound they would have to be made of metals of music such as brass or bronze certainly not ste... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil GrannyringI have had that same issue with a couple of other mods that I installed in my system. The most drastic one was the installation of a new clock in my transport. In first review it was like I had four subs in the room instead of just two. ... | |
| Vibration Theory - Isolate or Drain? Geoff your are right in this case I do disagree with you. Tom | |
| Vibration Theory - Isolate or Drain? My cd sounds more open and tuneful and faster when it is mechanically grounded and not isolated. Mass loaded turntables sound more open and tuneful and faster when they are mechanically grounded and not isolated. Most of the resonant energy in a s... | |
| Vibration Theory - Isolate or Drain? GeoffPaint by number, flavor of the month, retune your system because you don't like it today, mix and try to match, hodge podge, soup sandwich...greed, great marketing. All based around the misuse and misapplication of the word isolation. Crying ... | |
| Vibration Theory - Isolate or Drain? Cruz,Thanks for asking..So called mechanical isolation is a kin to cap coupling in electronics. Cap design and their material makeup are coloration devices as are materials and geometry chosen to make so called isolation devices. All of these are ... | |
| Vibration Theory - Isolate or Drain? Its as if your gear in a mechanical sense is all cap coupled from the inside to the outside environment and back again. In some worlds cap coupled is the color of the day. So called isolation devices are indeed crayons from some kids tool box. Tom | |
| Is Bass Non-Directional In A Two-Channel Rig? I have modded pairs of subs before...one at a time. I always had one to listen to and ran it in mono. I left the sub that played in the the same position as when it was part of the stereo pair. I also have a Velodyne smps digital eq which is mono ... |
