| Best Amp For Infinity Kappa 8.1 Speakers As longtime owner of Kappa sevens I recently purchased a McIntosh MC352 and these speakers came alive. Kappas love power! Look at Bryston, McCormack, Sherbourne in the 300 @ 8 ohm range or don't waste your time the Kappas need the power to fully r... | |
| Vienna Acoustics Vs Sonus Faber I have listened to both and would buy the Beethovens based upon the following:1-more cabinet colors available2-most musical with tighter bass(for music listening)3-better looking4-nicer cabinets5-better drivers6-better crossoversboth speakers are ... | |
| Rega P25 Tonearm Lift My suggestion is that if you have a heigth problem with your lift then you also have a (vertical tracking alignment)VTA issue that needs resolved.Contact Amusicdirect.com and buy the EASYRIZER for the rega and install it then set your VTA and you ... | |
| Which From my recent conversion to the Golden Reference, I can strongly suggest the GR's over the Nuetral ref's. I did an A/B in home comparision and thought the NR's were very accurate and precise, the GR's were all that and added a much better sound s... | |
| My VPI junior doesn't have aground lead If your not experienceing and RF hum don't worry. If you are then try finding a chassis ground that will minimize the hum. | |
| Why would my CD player start skipping? Try taking a can of compressed air and dusting of the lensit just may be dirty | |
| Turntable Set Up Questions again? Here is my opinion based on years of experience with vinyl, in response to your questions1. I say stay with the maximum tracking force and do not exceed it at all. the designer of that cartridge is telling you that the 1.5g is where the sensativit... | |
| Copper v. Silver It all comes down to your ear. Listen to a good silver cable then switch to a good copper, the a hybrid copper silver.I recently replaced my AudioMagic Excallibur II's ( a silvercable) and wnet to the Cardas Golden Reference. Big difference in det... | |
| Diana Krall I seriously doubt that the record company would have re-released a bad recording in SACD format if the master didn't justify the expense or the perceived sales didn't excist. | |
| What's the best isolation system? I have tried several things from Iso-Bearings to Vibropods and have had the best results with AQ Sobethane Feet under my turntable. On my CD players I use the Paulsen Platters which are no longer made bu are in breif a platter riding on apposing m... | |
| How much fluid do you use I agree with you on the vinyl, much better!. I too have a P25 and the VPI 16.5. I recently sold my nitty gritty and I can confirm you made the right decision on the VPI. I use enough fluid to cover about a 1 1/2 inch wide "puddle" fromedge of the ... | |
| Cardas Machined RCA Caps.??? I started with these when I was experiencing a problem with my phone pre amp. They may have cut down on the RF noise but I won't swear to it. I will say that the other two benefits are (one) no dust can get in the jack and (two) they look so cool!... | |
| Which upgrade should be my priority? Personnaly I give natalie my vote.The other tweaks are a waste of money if the signal isn't there to begin with. You are obviously looking at the right web-site to do just that.Find a good pre-amp and amp and build from there then any tweaks will ... | |
| Remote Control Problems :- One suggestion is check for "reflective surfaces" sometimes an "IR" signal will duplicate due to reflection and cause a cancelling of the signal, thus as if no signal was transmitted. | |
| Suggestion for bedroom speakers I don't think you can find a better stand mounted speaker thatn that Linn Katan. They deliver good full bass and a sweet high with exceptional mid's. They are worth every penny, but only if you invest in a good stand. Placement is not crucial either. |
