HOW CRITICAL ARE JUMPER CABLES
My 1958 Ford F100 can't live without them.

Never enjoyed their TV show.... But I have Michael''s LP with 'Joanne' on it. RIP  
All the old issues of Stereo Review are online!!
Their dry objectivist approach is exactly what HEA buyers don’t want. Guess what Ted?  Some of us do because SQ is strictly subjective. Hence my reference to the Benchmark AHB2 which is known for it's ridiculously low THD, TIM, IM etc. and not...

Liquid stylus cleaner without solvent
I've  used Last Stylus cleaner on all the carts I have had for last 40 years and have never had a problem. Just one small application every 15 to 20 records. I use a soft dry brush after playing every side. +++1  
At33ptg II perfect straight out the box
Set up my PTG/II  less than 2 weeks ago (Heybrook TT2/LVX); you're right, break in is almost nonexistent. Been using AT MC's for 30+ years, specifically OC9 and OC9ML.. These carts required 10-20 hours to break in, and overall sound is a bit lean... 
Fixed (Easy!) a Major Design Flaw of the Ohm Walsh Model F
Well Doug, keep us posted; and if you decide to butcher the 'F' cabinets with your hole-saw.... well that will make for some interesting reading.  Hell, you might just get rid of that mid/bass muddiness, you never know.  If it works you'll have JS... 
Fixed (Easy!) a Major Design Flaw of the Ohm Walsh Model F
Hi Doug, My experimentation with the 4’s started in 1998 when I sent in the cans for a re-foam. At that time I noticed that the ’tufflex’ inside the cabinet was disintegrating. I contacted JS at OHM and he said to go ahead and experiment with di... 
Fixed (Easy!) a Major Design Flaw of the Ohm Walsh Model F
Still the characteristic muffled mid/bass which will not be eliminated.   Have you tried experimenting with the batting inside the cabinet? The density and the thickness of the batting does effect the SQ of the mid/bass specifically. Certainly...

Thomas:I've owned my OHM Walsh 4's since 1986 so they're my 'forever' speakers.It's very hard to buy speakers without auditioning them; couldn't agree more.Here are some tips to help you make your decision:You prefer electrostatics to conventional...

Class A into Class AB
The Threshold S550e amp from the early 90's was rated at 250 WPC.This stasis design had optical bias circuitry and the bias was set at 100mV.Threshold claimed that it would run up to 20% of it's rated power in class A (that's 50 watts!!)My NAK PA-... 
How long do good speakers last?
Good to see so many people looking after their gear.My Walsh 4's were made in 1984 and re-foamed in 1998.Currently being re-foamed for a 2nd time after 23 years of service.I was advised by OHM that they're actually in pretty good shape but they're...
