| New cables - To judge now or after burn in period?

| Actual Lead Time on Tekton Speakers Lead time on Tektons should be 12 years to save people having to listen to poor quality home-build speakers (and to have to look at them). | |
| How To Do You Measure the Quality of Your AC Power? Dimming lights from an exercise machine???????????That's serious. No-one else gets that, although I used to get it when I powered up my old Krell.Sounds like you've just got bad or old or damaged house wiring.Get a competent electrician to re-wir... | |
| What is it about spinning vinyl? It's habit forming.How many of we vinyl afficionados also prefer mechanical clocks and wristwatches and cars with carburettors and stick shifts?I have two big old clocks, many watches and four 70s cars as well as the vinyl rig and 3500 LPs.Modern ... | |
| Critical oppositions made using inadequate equipment. As a matter of principle, it seems to me counter-productive to seek to evaluate a component using other components of a poorer sound quality than the one under evaluation.But it is more counter-productive to seek to allocate reliable or universal ... | |
| Is your now then? "Do you think we strive to return to the past and remain in those influential times? Are our choices psychological, nostalgic even....?"Woody Allen referenced this perennial dream in 'Midnight in Paris'.A tourist gets picked up by a vintage car an... | |
| Up grade to a new turntable @tomwh I guess sometime a turntable designer will implement VTA on the fly adjusted by an electric motor to raise and lower the arm pillar and a remote to operate it. Then you can stay in your seat and tune it by ear.On my Simon Yorke Aeroarm ... | |
