| Good match for Adcom 555? For some reason that I can't fully understand I would try to get some Spendors. Heard some recently at the Montreal show (I can't tell you which model, unfortunately) and was greatly impressed. Maybe the fact that the sound reminded me of vintage ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Was the cat still on the turntable? Maybe a new tweak you picked up on? I sure hope the cat is not cryoed? Good day. | |
| cartridge allignment/test record Maybe Astrud is actually walking while she performs? Unless you want to really get into tt set-up and are quite adept at using your hands and making minute adjustments, I would entrust set-up to a pro and leave all this VTA adjustment for each rec... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? A bunch of DGG and Philips albums I recently got for $5.99 a piece, brand new and sealed. Actually they were samples that probably disappeared from circulation since 1980. Among the lot my favourite is Dvorak Symphony No 9, Concertgebow, Colin Dav... | |
| LP storage? What do you use? Best bet is IKEA if there is one in you area. | |
| What am I to do about Don't get fixated on the "metal domes sound harsh" school of thought. I think that the amplification you mention could be the source of the perceived harshness. The room would be my first choice as the culprit though, but since you said you tried ... | |
| Audio Research LS-25 MK1 Owners Mine feeds into Bryston 7B STs and there is no lack of bass. I have Amperex Bugle Boys in the line stage, but don't believe they have any effect on the bass, at least to my ear. Wait until your ears "break-in" with the combo you have. In a week or... | |

| Nordost Blue Heaven to SPM Reference How can a cable be said to have a "fast transient response"? | |
| How to get rig of the low frequency from record Same issue with ARC PH-3. I still had a pair of Nakamichi subsonic line filters on hand so I plugged them into the output of the PH-3. Maybe you could find some of these on the used market or something similar. I find that vented speakers seem to ... | |
| Revel Salons...time for a new version? Do you really think that all new speakers are an advancement in sound reproduction? Surely you must feel better that the prices keep going up, since that has to be the best guaranty of great sound! Next, surely, will be the question Why are there... | |
| Verity Sarastro? Heard it at the Montreal show. Just another way of Verity jacking up the prices IMHO. "The world is alive with the sound of ribbons". | |
| NEED HELP with older LP Jacket odor... Ozone treatment if available. | |
| Current Trends in multi thousand dollar speakers Sean, I have to agree with you. You are rowing against the current though, since audio is now firmly in the "subjectivist" camp where belief replaces facts. I keep reading more and more that flat frequency response in-room is not where it's at. I ... | |
| Do You Remember Your First CD Player? Yes, a Yamaha, forgot the model designation, but it was the one in a chassis that was not the usual full width. Was not the first model that Yamaha made, probably more like the second, but it was the first reasonably priced CD player that came out... |
