Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post? I put in a fixit ticket and Tammy verified my land line for me. (Thank you) | |
Where to insert tubes while running a Luxman SS integrated My L-505uxii with a Herron 360 pre was a surprisingly stark match. A lot of the Luxman magic seems to be in the pre. I suggest try before you buy. | |
Best way to integrate a subwoofer into Luxman Preamp + L-509X Integrated system? The "line straight" feature removes coloration of the tone control section. On the off chance that you haven't, give it a try. It's a much clearer signal at low volume on my L-505uxii. Also, the 509x reportedly needs an hour warm up, as does my... | |
Lumin U2 mini vs Mac laptop sound test I replaced the new Node with a U2 mini and heard quite a difference. The highs are clear and pure, there’s less grain and focus is much better. Put another way, The Node sounds grainy, unfocused and a bit shrill compared to the mini. I recently ... | |
Hearing Aids in 2023 .. Questions @christian I’ve recalled more detail of the feedback conversation (Hey, I’m 69 and it was a year and 1/2 ago!) The high frequency gain is borderline max and I may (now do) need a step up to more power. | |
Hearing Aids in 2023 .. Questions I have Signia brand for a year and a half. They're not perfect or cheap but do have some great features. They're app controlled meaning I can adjust volume (per ear), bass and treble. There's also an AI that offers solutions for my approval and... | |
Top two most important sound qualities Fun and captivating - a synergy of audio qualities not defining sound perfection but revealing to the heart and soul. | |
Internet Noise: A Pest in the Machine I had a power line adapter interfere like that. The digital was riding on the phono pre out as seen on an o-scope. Any in the house? | |
VPI JMW 9 wire problem I just Fluked my DV xx2-2 and it’s 6.9 each channel. No problem. For trouble shooting you can search phono cartridge color code. It will *most likely* have a broken wire at the connector pin under the shrink tubing. | |
VPI JMW 9 wire problem I believe the connecter top unscrews if I am remembering correctly. That's where the break would be. | |
Who makes the best boxes for shipping albums. Not bulk, just a few at a time Search for “ record mailers “ | |
Linkup CAT8 compared to the best? The Linkup is economical enough that I thought "why not?" and gave it a try. Not against top tier cables, I have Wireworld Chroma. Spoiler, the Chroma won. The iMac slowed a bit, the TV picture degraded and digital lost my interest. Just one perso... | |
Something strange with imaging It could be two simultaneous issues. One with a table/arm/cart/cable imbalance and another imbalance with hearing or acoustics. If it sounds balanced when you turn your back to the speakers but not when you face them, it’s not acoustics, it’s your... | |
WHEN DID YOU FINALLY STOP... Seems like pure analog and non computer based digital need not apply. It's better audio for non audiophiles if true. | |
From an MHDT to an Audio Mirror, quick impressions Update on playlists. With Tidal Connect and Spotify Connect enabled in the Lumin, those individual apps will stream direct from their server to the mini. Just choose the U2 mini as player. No need to create a Lumin playlist. |
