| Mcintosh mx136 vs Mcintosh Mx150 I am not a 100% sure, but I believe the MX136 was that last Pre-pro to have a true analog in analog out circuit path. My understanding is the MX150 runs everything thru the digital processing to the outputs. I guess the thought is to have all sign... | |
| Seeking to soundproof front door to my apartment What kind of door is it? Is it a panel door? If so those do transmit sound more than a hollow core. You might go to a home center and buy a sheet of styrofoam insulation about 2" thick and add it to the door with double sided tape or Velcro. That ... | |
| VPI 16.5 Low Suction A little more information would be helpful. Does the vacuum seem to laboring indicated by a louder than usual noise? If you place your hand over the tube port with the vacuum on, is there much suction and does it change in sound as you plug the p... | |
| Velodyne sub with loose allen bolts? I have a DD12 and periodically snug the fasteners as well as my speakers. I think anything that vibrates in the course of operation will eventually "loosen" and need occasional re-tightening. | |
| "Cracked Rear View" A little off topic, but I think John Hiatt offers great and thought provoking lyrics. But one of my favorite lines is "I always though my house haunted, 'cause nobody said boo to me" . Not verbatim but I do love his music. | |
| Now Keith Emerson is gone... What a talented musician he was, I have been a fan for years and had a tremendous appreciation for his music. It seems like we are losing the greats to often here lately. If anything, I am feeling older.I hope his family has plenty of support at t... | |
| Lyra Etna Versus Kleos I had a Delos for a short while and upgraded to the Kleos and love it. However the system you describe would be a perfect fit for the Etna, if you have the means, and if your asking I presume you do. I have heard the Etna on a few different tables... | |

| Bridging the Mcintosh 402 amp Look at pgs 12 and 13 of your manual. This explains in detail how to change it to Mono operation. | |
| Is the main reason audio equipment depreciates so much is #1 on digital and #3 on everything else. With an average of 40% profit at MSRP, and most dealers will discount 10-20% so that drives the used market down to below dealer cost at resale. In my years here on Audiogon, it seems that 50% of MSRP seem... | |
| Upgrade Linn LP 12 or buy new table I had a nicely set up LP12 and it sounded great, but I hit a point of either further obligation to Linn for upgrades and maintenance mor change. I decided to trade off on a Rega RP10. I do miss the musical pacing of the LP12, in my opinion it woul... | |
| Another musician has died That is sad news indeed. Gee I am beginning to feel old here lately, David Bowie, Glen Frey, the list is way to long and too familiar. I guess I am getting old. But as a big Jefferson Airplane/Starship fan, it is truly sad to see a musician with s... | |
| Parasound JC3+ or Audia Flight Phono Just curious on the owners of the JC3+, did you ever try lifting the ground to reduce the noise? I have been considering the JC3+ and asked a month or so back about a comparison to the Linn Uphorik, but still haven't made a purchase. I have been l... | |
| Audio Research discontinuing lower lines components? I think the one point that needs to be considered, is that maybe they aren't selling enough of the lower end product to justify keeping them in production. A good example is, or least last I heard, that Vandersteen would like to discontinue older ... |
