Single Sub Position
I agree with @tmortsd, I always had mine to the rear & in the corner of my old house. Then moved to where I am now & put it to rear right on the side of the couch. I the bought another sub, but smaller & put it on the other side of the...

The new software just blended all the low end into one big sub.  
What Holiday Gifts did you ask for or Give to Yourself?
2- Little Fwends Disco versions, only because they come in black, from my Daughter. On their way from the UK, should be here on Tues.  
Speaker Isolation tweaks ?
I use  under my LaScalas. The good thing is that their adjustable for uneven floors, plus they tighten up the base. Under my MK subs, I use what skeptikal suggested, the  SVS SoundPath. Under my (8) other speakers, 3'' Maple from a well known fa... 
Spades vs. Banana plugs ??
For what it’s worth, coming from Monoprice 12g wire with Nakamichi bananas, I went with the Viborg pure copper banana plugs on Furutech FS-A36 12g speaker cable. I tried one speaker with the Nakamichi & the other with the Viborg both treated w...

SR Tuning Discs, Psychoacoustic Bias and Listening Fatigue
I have a Don Sachs preamp, & one day I got a bug up my ass & swapped from existing feet to Maple footers & made no significant sound change. I had a set of Panega's feet laying around & tried those, & instantaneously, the music...

@rms456 I'm glad to see someone else discovered this cable. I've posted on a few threads since my discovery a few years ago. Only trying to help fellow DIY'ers. When I made my purchase from the North American supplier it was only for 12''. That su... 
Time for a new cartridge
+1 for;  Vas Nova and you can upgrade the standard to better cantilever and stylus if you desire. Harry from VPI recommends. Also EMT makes phenomenal carts.  
Phono preamp for a Denon 103R cartridge.
@zarf I have 2 - 103-r's in my stash. 1 is a VAS upgrade & the other is original. Both are setup for my EMT 948 & it has its's own preamp card. Before the EMT, I was bouncing around the idea for my Technics & read a lot of reviews of t...

I also had a good experience with a Chinese supplier. I purchased,  Furutech Flagship a-36 cable from a supplier here in the States & was curious if the Chinese cable was the same. This was a little time consuming, but patience comes with age.... 
Cartridge for Michell Gyro SE and SME 309
@couger4u  I had the ML on my Technics GAE w/309 arm into a Modwright 9.0 & it sounded brite. I moved the ML to the GAE arm that's now on a Modded 1200 & it's a nice match. The 309 has an Otho Cadenza Black now, but it's more than you wan...
