| Does anyone use white gloves to handle records? The only way I would go to that amount of trouble would be if I were one of those people whose body chemistry is such they degrade and wear away the covering on their steering wheel. (That does happen, I have seen it more than once.) Washing your ... | |
| Who Has A BHK 250 & How Do You Like It? I have a BHK 250 and I too have wondered what it would sound like with Maggie 1.7i's. Unless someone has actual experience with this combination, opinions on how this amp sounds with one speaker don't necessarily correlate with other speakers. I'v... | |
| could somebody help me out on the benefits of expensive phono and speaker cables? If you are really looking for a serious answer as opposed to stirring the pot of contention, telling the community what your system is like and what cables you are using now will go a long way towards getting meaningful responses. | |
| Anyone used these audio ceramic slow blow fuses from Littlefuse? Thanks for your input BigShutterbug. Where did you purchase your fuses? | |
| Organ CDs with really deep bass I recently acquired this disc of Carsten Weibusch’s Debussy organ transcriptions recorded by the German Audite label. I find it to have excellent artistic and recording qualities. There is a tremendous sense of being immersed within the recording ... | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD +1 to above comments. Some people love the DL103 and its various iterations but to my ears they're far from the best. | |
| DIY acoustic panels? FWIW, I tried the DIY approach to making absorption panels and then I tried GIK's products. Considering the time expended and cost of purchasing quality materials to make DIY panels of equal quality to GIK's, I can't imagine why anyone would both... | |
| Need a Record Brush. Got a recommendation? I've tried several brushes marketed for record cleaning and found them all ok at best. My solution may be weird, but it works for me. When humidity is higher and static isn't an issue, I just use microfiber cleaning cloths that I fold over into a ... | |
| Is There a fix for CD Pin-holes (CD Rot) I have no experience with this program myself, but this receives mention in computer audio forums as an alternative to toast at a lower cost ($32.00.) Toast is on sale for $70 at present. I'd used Toast quite a bit with good results in the past. h... | |
| Is There a fix for CD Pin-holes (CD Rot) There are discussions about iTunes vs. XLD for ripping at ww.computer audiophile's website. As is often the case with all things audio, there seems to be little to no consensus about which is better. I'd make no claim to expertise in these matters... | |
| Is There a fix for CD Pin-holes (CD Rot) I have had good luck ripping damaged cd's to my Mac's hard drive in iTunes using the lowest speed setting and then burning a new disc with a quality outboard CD-RW drive and good quality CD-R's. I like to use an old Firewire LaCie Porsche Design d... | |
| Jay's Audio transport Your concerns are understandable but not easily resolved. I think 6moons overview of the owner and company make it pretty clear where they stand as far as longevity. Mr. Ho has been building his current business for ten years. However, the Chinese... | |
| Anyone used these audio ceramic slow blow fuses from Littlefuse? Well, thanks for all the witty replies (even if we're none the more enlightened.) I'll order a few and report back. It doesn't appear that these fuses are getting any great push into the marketplace from Littlefuse. Product pages on Littlefuse's w... | |
| Anyone used these audio ceramic slow blow fuses from Littlefuse? Yes, Littlefuse has always made ceramic fuses but up to this point their offerings have cost a dollar or so at the most. The economy of scale that they potentially have in manufacturing does make one curious as to how these compare to standard iss... | |
| Anyone used these audio ceramic slow blow fuses from Littlefuse? I need no persuasion as to the lack of any sound reasoning or science behind "audio" fuses. I'm simply asking if any believers in the congregation of audio fuse purchasers have formed an opinion about Littlefuse's offerings? No need to re-argue t... |
