| Scheu Audio Das Laufwerke No 2 Arrives Safely Congratulations on your recent acquisition. I love the look of mass loaded turntables. The Sheu Laufwerke 2 reminds me of a few Transrotor models as well. Is you’re new turntable black or acrylic? Happy listening. | |
| Distributed Bass Array configuration Well, I am going to join the DBA Swarm club, will, let’s call it the “Magnum” Swarm club. Instead of 4 10” subwoofer driver cabinets, I am getting 4 12” subwoofer driver cabinets in 36”x14”x14” dimensions. After speaking with James Romeyn about m... | |
| Analog Upgrade - Where to start? Your system specs look good to me. Based on what you said; “ looking for more dynamic sound, detail (without edge) and musicality.”, the first places I would look at are 1., the phono cartridges…there are so many newer models at various price poin... | |
| Shunyata Research alpha hc vs Shunyata Research original black mamba I have two pairs of the Black Mamba and one older Alpha. The Black Mamba is used on my dual power supply phono stage and the alpha on my preamp. They seem to work very well and I don’t perceive any problems. But, the newer versions of these Alpha ... | |

| Power Conditioner vs A/C cables @phantom_av,I purchased an Elgar power conditioner many years from a military surplus sale for about 40 dollars. I used it with Carver and Soundcraftsman amps. It was heavy and at the time we were moving, so I gave it to my best friend. I don’t re... | |

| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Speaker Cables @millercarbon Ola, guten tag, und Hallo!,Your feedback has me interested to explore these cables. Did you use these in a bi-wire configuration or single wire? I know you did not mention it, or I may have overlooked it, so, I am assuming single pai... | |
| Where does it end? @rocray,Roger that. I can’t even imagine a sled with that much HP, but it would be cool to watch for sure. Holy cow, 400-600 HP sleds must sound like funny cars. Drag racing sleds, have to Google videos to watch later. Sounds exciting. I love watc... | |
| Would silver cables beat UP-OCC copper? @nonoise,Yes, you sure are in a SC quandary, LOL. I mean how can you go wrong with 10 gauge OCC stranded silver for the bass? My Neotech speaker cables are the 9 gauge NES 1002 series which I just found a pair online for 5800, what? I have two pai... | |
| Would silver cables beat UP-OCC copper? @nonoise I see you are also a Tempo Electric cable user as well. It would be interesting to see how a set of bi-wire Tempo Electric speaker cables compare to your single wire experience. My Neotech high definition silver speaker cables sound bette... |
