| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? More like, "Now that's more like it", is usually what I experience. Nothing otherworldly. | |
| Let's talk about Silver... @tony1954 " I tried silver interconnects, they were a little like chewing aluminum foil. Although, that seems a little HARSH. ;)" Yes, but how thick of an aluminum foil were you chewing? I find copper plated with silver cables bright sounding i... | |
| Good outlet for amplifiers I don't see much better grip from a duplex outlet than the top offerings from Hubbell and for a fraction of the cost Pass & Seymour. I use both and frankly I always recommend 20 amp P & S's with the clamping from the back to the wire for ... | |
| BEST SPEAKER THAT COMES TO LIFE AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS Well, if no one else brought them up, Quad 57's. And if you want to take them to the next level, remove the grills and you might want stretch a shear cloth over the fronts. I used black polyester cloth and painted side panels with black paint. A... | |
| «Today’s Lyrics Are Pathetically Bad» Rick Beato You can say that there is a bit to unpack here, but to me, all that street thug bravado comes from very limited life experiences; poor education, little or no family structure, access to a world just outside there own of violence where gang life... | |
| What Speaker Cables Taught Me About Audiophiles @erik_squires ' we audiophiles need to be conscious that sometimes our preferences are unique to our culture and that the "normal" consumer may not share them at all'. Or that you were wrong about which is better. A few years back, I had a sim... | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! @oldaudiophile It was a simple question; Has anyone tried Mofi's Ultra Record Wash concentrate for ultrasonic cleaning machines? In stead, outside of other methods of cleaning. you recommend mixing/making my own. When I asked you how to make my ... | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! @oldaudiophile "Yes, I know what you mean. The little bottle you're talking about is Mofi's Ultra Record Wash concentrate for ultrasonic cleaning machines. Again, you can make your own for a fraction of the cost." Okay, can you tell me how to m... | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! @impaler Apparently you didn’t watch the video and you completely missed my point. Take care. And your question about some sort of release agent on records during manufacture, I once had a Ultra one step pressing that had a ring of a grease lik... | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! @moonwatcher "I think vacuum cleaning done right can get you about 80% of the way to Degritter sound quality" I don't think so. I think the improvement more than that plus the utter ease of use. You can be doing other things while cleaning r... | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! @oldaudiophile Yeah, that's not what I'm talking about. The newest product is sold in 1 oz bottles at twenty-five bucks a crack and you mix it with 3-4 liters of H2O, designed specifically for cavitation machines like the Degritter. | |
| What is the first thing you do when you unwrap a new vinyl record? Clean it. | |
| "Cleaning" Vinyl Makes It Worse Not Better! Anyone try the Mobile Fidelity Ultra Record Wash, 1oz bottle, for ultrasonic machines? | |
| Canare 4S11"G" now available! @roxy54 "I guess it never ends. Oxygen free, then why not OCC, and while they’re at it, could they make the insulation PTFE?" Actually this cable has a better insulator, polyethylene, than PTFE, polytetrafluoroethylene, with a lower dielectri... | |
| Speaker cables with good timbre I was not aware that timbre could be adjusted by speaker cable. I have about five different speaker cables but see no point discussing them since I would have no idea how they would affect timbre. You can try an affordable cable like Canare 4S11G... |
