| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? I'm new here.How do you respond to a specific post, or to the OP's latest post when you see it later (above more recent posts)?thanks, | |
| Weight, Clamp or stabilizer? Clamps are smart but minor.Someone suggested a new cartridge, what cartridge are you using now? Who set it up?Arm and Cartridge Setup make the MOST difference, for any tt, any arm, any cartridge. Check/adjust your existing cartridge or a new one. ... | |

| What do you think of the DIY Cat 5 speaker cables clarification. I just read about weaving your own. no way,my method is to use Cat 5 out of the box, which is jacketed, within: 8 individualy insulated small diameter solid strands. Twist a pair of them, gives 8 wires positive, 8 wires com. Everyth... | |
| What do you think of the DIY Cat 5 speaker cables You mentioned 'unstable'. I don't know about that, never studied those technicalities. I used mine, 15 feet long, with 30 wpc Fisher 80Z tube mono-blocks; 30 wpc Fisher 500c tube receivers; 320 wps McIntosh SS; now Cayin A88T tube: 22 wpc triode/... | |
| What do you think of the DIY Cat 5 speaker cables Oh yeah, I make my own, you can too.I don't take credit, but I may have been the Cat 5 speaker cable pioneer before anyone offered them. Newer Cat 6 cables have higher specs WAY out of audio signals, improved crosstalk, BUT, are less flexible. If ... | |
| Bookshelf to replace Martin Logan Source that sub is overkill, I just had it. | |
| Bookshelf to replace Martin Logan Source You have written the contradiction yourself. Bookshelf Speaker: Where's the bass?IMO, get the best choice for mids, highs, imaging, and listen for a month without a subwoofer. BUT, have a sub location in mind, and have a sub in your budget.My B&am... | |
| I am down to 2 choices (PP or SET amp?) to run my JBL L100 (alnico) Well, your speakers high efficiency allow lower powered amps, SS or Tubes, I always like that.However, a large woofer needs it's own magnet, and an amp working in it's 'easy' range for proper control. A port, reactive to the woofer, also wants tha... | |
| The Absolute Sound "review" of USB cable reads suspiciously like a press releaste Absolute announcement/press release, idiotic of them to show 'equipment report' and have someone's name attached to a press release.However, ignoring AS, let's talk Pied Piper Effect.Who among you believes the construction of a USB cable will make... | |
| "Dazed and Confused" about upgrading current speakers Larsen (never heard them) (similar to OHM),My guess is they will not give you what you are seeking.btw, I haven't checked out or listened to current stuff in years, so this is fun hopping about, learning this and that. My comments are based on fun... | |

| "Dazed and Confused" about upgrading current speakers Ohm Walsh Tall link, scroll to the bottom, there is a room size chart and recommended model, what size room do you have?? https://ohmspeaker.com/speakers/walsh-tall/#wt-1000 | |
| Tekton or Klipsch I'm not sure how large or the shape of your listening space, let me add a few comments.Heresy may sound better in your space than Forte's.I have had horns and 15" woofers, and rear ports over the past 50 years. Necessarily wide face of speaker enc... | |
| 2000-2500 USD budget for an integrated amplifier. Do amplifiers sound the same? :) I've never seen or heard one, it seems a high quality choice with modern features you want.Patented technology seems successful.Perhaps the only expected sonic difference would be based on the decision to go with a very high damping factor, effect... |
