| Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables? My point is not to say that engineering doesn't count. My point is that the sonic results AT THE EARS and in IN THE CONTEXT OF THE SYSTEM BEING USED is the ultimate "test".As I have been involved in the cable business on the sales end, I have seen... | |
| Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables? Boy, it sure is refreshing to see some other people taking the beating, and not me, for a change.Maybe a good suggestion would be for everyone to get rid of their speakers altogether, and replace them with oscilloscopes, so we could all watch the ... | |
| Coupling vs. Decoupling for Bass Response I'd suggest fixing the floor, which is where the problem lies, as you said yourself.Are a few well-placed 2x4 or 4x4 support beams too expensive? | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? Thank you Ohlala, for your very reasonable, and polite response.I appreciate that. | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? Ohlala, I'm sorry that you feel that way. But of course, with your past posting history, I'm not surprised.I'd express my opinions about you too, but don't want to sully the board as you did.For one who apparently feels so high and mighty as to pa... | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? Considering this thread is about Sistrum products, and a point was raised about someone not knowing when the Chicago Audio Society meeting was, and also the Rocky Mtn. Audio Festival(where we are showing), I think that my post was on topic and per... | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? Starsound will be speaking at the Chicago Audio Society meeting on Sept. 26,2004, and will be displaying a room full of our gear at the Rocky Mountain Audio Festival in Denver during October 8 thru October 10, 2004.The Harmonic Precision Caravelle... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Hi,The standard RB250 has end caps which are pressed into the bearing yoke on both sides. Sometimes these are already removed. If they are still there on your arm, and you don't want to mess around with taking them out, then just apply these same ... | |
| 12 volt battery as power source I use 12vdc batteries for most of my system, and it works very well indeed, as long as the gear is designed to work that way.You can use a power inverter to power your AC devices from a battery, but you have to get the right kind of inverter that ... | |
| Thoughts on single driver speakers Nothing's perfect. I like my single-driver setup just fine. I've had alot of the "more normal" stuff, and the single-drivers sound better to me, especially when using a low power SET amp. | |
| Trelja- announcement and disclaimer Joe, congratulations and good luck! | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? Larry, thanks for trying out the Sistrum products. I'm glad that you found them very satisfying on your system. You've shown an open mind, and it benefitted your system.It seems that the only people who recognize what the Sistrum products can do, ... | |
| High Efficiency Wall Mount Speakers and 300B Carl, LS35A are not really a good option, because they need to be well out into the room for proper sound. For a similar sized speaker that is intended to be placed against the wall, you might consider Linn Kans. They are not high-efficiency eithe... | |
| TWL's Hi Fi Mod & Doug's VTF tweak Thanks, Joe! Glad you have found the time to make the HiFi mod and VTF tweak.I guess now you see that I was not exaggerating.It's been almost 2 years now, since I first posted the thread about this HiFi mod. Many people have done it, and all had t... | |
| Am I really smart or really stupid? Nothing wrong with doing as you suggest. However, it must be noted that on those old preamps, they probably need some refurbishing, and at least re-capping, to sound anywhere near like they did when they were new. Some of the internal components d... |
