| I Cried Today Blessings to Johns family and to you Bigkidz, you obviously feel loss and a hole that you can fill with the memories of the time that John and you shared. It’s refreshing to see a post of this nature and I thank you for providing an opportunity to... | |
| "I'm a believer" IMHO and years of investing, listening etc as mentioned by the OP. I think that speakers are the final destination of delivery to our ears for every dollar spent to achieve that utopia we all seek. But I think also we must agree that the speaker i... | |
| Does a particular musician’s songwriting and artistry speak to you above all others? Second on Bruce Cockburn, adding Gordon Lightfoot, Moody Blues earlier years, Harry Chapin, Jackson Brown, early Neil Diamond, and more but at bedtime all I can think of. | |
| 10 gauge power cord. Too much power for tube amp? The power cable can’t generate power however as mentioned the wrong sized cable, I.e. too small can restrict power. Put the OEM cable back on and if the problem persists, contact McIntosh or at least Audio Classics. The problem is in the unit and ... | |
| What to do with my dad's old Revel Performa F50's? Just a note to correct in you listing. Those are F52’s not 50’s. That might help for anyone that may just want them for parts. | |
| LP Thickness/Taper ketchup, I can appreciate your logic concerning the mat you have and I agree on a hard mat that makes sense as the only way to go. However I have a felt mat on my Rega and would think that the vinyl rests with a fair distribution of pressure acros... | |
| LP Thickness/Taper I find your picture interesting in that the outer rim is not resting on the turntable platter. Since the rim and center are considerably thicker to suspend the playing surface off of the platter. And I would imagine that the 180 gram pressings hav... | |
| Upgrading Speakers About 2 years ago I decided to buy new speakers and I listened to so many it drove me nuts. I had heard the Olympica III and did like them. Then at the last Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, Sonus Faber did the world debut of the Olympica Nova series. I ... | |
| What record weight for Rega RP10 I just ordered the Michell weight yesterday. I like that it isn’t reliant on weight but applys pressure by clamping to the spindle. But thank you for your suggestion. | |
| What record weight for Rega RP10 Thank you, Zuman. I found it for 70.00 and plan to get one coming. I appreciate your help Theo | |
| What record weight for Rega RP10 Zuman. I looked at this online and there isn’t much explanation of how the clamp works. So if I understand/assume, you apply some downward pressure then tighten the collet? As mentioned, I do have some concern about applying too much pressure on t... | |
| What record weight for Rega RP10 Tablejockey. I have considered getting the Alpheta as it would eliminate any error in setting it up. I eliminate the shims and everything else falls into place. I currently use a Linn Linto for phono stage and really want to upgrade it but curren... | |
| What record weight for Rega RP10 Ellliotnnewcombjr. Thank you but that adds a lot more weight which I have determined the Rega bearing might be damaged. Also I think adding the much weight could require more weight load on the motor. but t appreciate your help | |
| What record weight for Rega RP10 Drbond. I did try an HRS platform under the table and it did sound really good, but it was to big and sold it. I planned to get another HRS in smaller size but then tried the Symposium Segue and ended up buy it as it seemed to be a more vivid than... |
