| Best building material for vibration free shelving I guess me simply placing my componets using the feet they came with on my 20 year old rack with MDF shelves situated between my speakers is audio sacrilege? Oh well I'm getting old, hearing isn't what it once was and my stereo is junk so Apollo m... | |
| Step Down Transformers?! What are you building a theater? I assume the 30 amp is for the Richard Gray Powerhouse which needs a NEMA 6-30r basically a clothes dryer plug. I can’t understand what the other two 20 amps are for that Richard Gray powerhouse could almost run a ... | |
| I pulled the trigger, I bought OHM Walsh Micro Tall Speakers... Evan said they were just starting a run of the 2000 series and I should expect them in about a month so should be 2 or maybe 3 more weeks. I asked what amps they used to voice their speakers with. He didn't exactly say but did mention that in SS,... | |
| Optical digital cables? I think either would work. If you read about the blue jeans cable on their site it' s built for durability and can be used in long runs up to 50 feet. If you get glass get it long enough to avoid any sharp bends. | |
| Cover songs that are better than the originals. To me there aren't that many covers I like better than originals, I posted a few a ways back. Perhaps those few are because I am more familiar with the cover than the original but for songs where I am fairly familiar with the original I find I ca... | |
| I pulled the trigger, I bought OHM Walsh Micro Tall Speakers... I ordered a set of the 2000’s in rosewood about 2 weeks ago. I dealt with Evan who was also very easy to work with. Never heard this type of speaker before. Previous speakers have been B&W, Paradigm, KEF , NHT . I have no idea what to expect. | |
| Bands with great second albums Another nod to Nantucket Sleighride. Standing stage side at a 1973 Mountain concert probably accounts for 10% of my hearing loss. | |
| Displaying your stereo on Facebook What's a facebook? | |
| HUMIDITY The expert also informed me I was probably getting ice in the walls as well that's why it's best to let the humidistat control the humidity as it adjusts for outside temperature changes. | |
| HUMIDITY I did consult with an expert that’s why I know it was the whole house humidifier keeping the house to humid the expert switched the hunidistat from manual to automatic and it was a miracle no more ice on the windows. | |
| HUMIDITY That's optimal between 35% and 45%. | |
| HUMIDITY They are new triple pane windows in an energy efficeint house it has nothing to do with the windows it has to do with to much humidity in a house in very cold winter climates. Actually the tighter the house the worse the problem running whole hou... | |
| HUMIDITY Hope you don't live in a cold winter climate to keep 60% humidity your windows will have ice on the inside. If you run a whole house humidifier beyween 35 and 45% and you will need to dial that down in very cold weather to around 25% maybe lower ... | |
| Cover songs that are better than the originals. I like watching Ike and Tina Turner doing Proud Mary but I prefer listening to CCR. | |
| Favorite musician(s) In the vein of backing musicians, Nils Lofgren with Crazy Horse and E Street Band comes to mind. |
