Would anyone be interested in a timeshare on an Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaner Pro? @wntrmute2 - can you check that link? It didn't work for me, and I'm curious about the formula.I use the Hannl concentrate mixed with Reagent Grade 1, for most records, and if they are troublesome, use the AIVS # 15, both with a pure water rinse. ... | |
VPI is bringing back the Magic Brick! @salectric When we sold our house in NY, we left many items for the buyers at their request, along with tools, garden equipment, extra filters for the HVAC, etc. I had my music room totally cleaned up- pulled out the large equipment racks, replace... | |
VPI is bringing back the Magic Brick! @bdp24 - yes, i think so. You don't want to drop a magic brick on your toes. | |
VPI is bringing back the Magic Brick! So, I am in Manhattan on a shopping errand jaunt with my wife. We were at ABC furniture downtown, made our way up through Soho, stopped at the old Stereo Exchange (if memory serves, it was the small shop) and bought a stack of VPI bricks. Three- t... | |
VPI is bringing back the Magic Brick! I have a good VPI Magic Brick story. | |
Building a stereo room and ran into some problems, help! Nothing wrong with DIY. When I had to deal w/ sound proofing issues, a lot of the bargain stuff really didn't do much attenuation. There is a lot of confusion between acoustic treatment and soundproofing. Also, some of the stuff for sound proofing... | |
How many LP's Over the years, I organized the records in my own way; different people have different ways of doing this. There was, and remains, a sort of "dumping ground" section for copies I rejected at one point, or duplicates of records that aren’t terribly... | |
How many LP's I peaked a few years ago with around 14,000. Gave a couple thousand to a friend, had a broker sell some (he dealt with the listings and I got 50%), nothing terribly valuable, and when we sold our house, I culled more- so I didn’t have to move crap... | |
Building a stereo room and ran into some problems, help! gorgeous rooms, goose. | |
Building a stereo room and ran into some problems, help! Mass loaded vinyl is a very sound proofing material, but: it is expensive and it isn't that easy to handle. You don't need two layers of drywall, or for that matter any green glue to make it work. Think of it as lead sheeting in the form of thin v... | |
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE I will talk with Vlad and look at the Avantgarde manual re the internal ground settings that are user adjustable. My bet is that’s where the issue is coming from. Thank you all. I’ll continue to follow this thread, not for my issue as such, but fo... | |
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE @lewm thanks. I do believe there is something already wired into the connection between the circuit ground and the chassis/main AC ground receptacle inside the amps, but I don’t feel comfortable messing with it. I will continue to investigate, per... | |
A New Ground -- Benefits of introducing the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SE Thanks, Ralph. I know it is grounded now, but will hum unless I lift the ground. I do have a decent meter and will poke around without opening up the units. | |
Record Cleaning Mystery @swampwalker’s theory is as good as any. Here’s another: you’re record cleaning process has succeeded in loosening stuff on your records through fluids, brushing and you’ve vac dried them, but there’s still contaminants on the record. I’ve had thi... | |
