| Record cleaning and care Record cleaning is a good idea, even with new records. I buy a lot of used records and had gotten a bit lax recently, not cleaning them all. The shop I buy most of them from cleans most of their records (except the bargain bin stuff) with a VPI ... | |
| Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER? My hypocrisy knows no bounds. | |
| Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER? "First of all, it's a Klipsch..."I remember watching this a while ago, it is pretty funny. For the record, I have some Heresy I speakers and a have owned and still have a number of other Klipsch speakers (KLF-30, RF-7, RF-5, CF-3, CF-2, and a few... | |
| Technics SL-1700 feet You might look here: https://mnpctech.com/turntable-feet-replacement-isolation/I have no experience (yet) with their products, but just ordered a set of the large feet for my JVC turntable. I'll report back once I get them. The JVC turntable ha... | |
| How much difference will a phono stage upgrade make? I had a project tube box, I think it was the tube box S. It was okay, but there was a noticeable improvement when I replaced that with a jolida jd9. The musical surroundings Nova phonomena was also an improvement over the tube box. My most dramati... | |
| Ever Bought an Audio Product that was Stupid Good for the Money? The Bluesound Node 2 is a great value and so is the Parks Puffin when talking about new products at MSRP.Some good deals I've come across... Perhaps the best was a pair of Klipsch CF-2 V1 speakers for $75. I picked up a vintage JVC QL-Y66F direct ... | |

| Peachtree Audio 2.0 I have a Nova 300 and had taken it out of my computer system for a while in favor of a Heed Elixir. I've made a number of source and speaker changes since then and I have to say it sounds really nice with the Peachtree back in the mix. I'm using... | |
| Is it just me or has Quboz crashed? It was not working this morning. Seems to be back online now. | |
| Qobuz Windows App A follow up in case it helps someone else... I uninstalled the drivers for the other DACs I had on this machine and only left the one I'm using installed and the Qobuz app seems to work fine now. | |
| Want to get into Analog @chakster Thank you for that information, it's very much appreciated. Aren't you the same guy who in another thread was completely against retipping? | |
| Want to get into Analog @chakster The Stanton has the D98S II stylus. I'll enjoy it while it lasts, it seems that a replacement is unobtanium and reviews are mixed for 3rd party stylus options. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Rod Stewart - Every Picture Tells a Story. Classic! | |
| Qobuz Windows App @gdnrbob2 Thanks for the suggestions. I run the Qobuz app on my phone and tablet with no issues. I installed it on my laptop, which is a slower machine and it runs fine. I have plenty of bandwidth, that machine is connected directly to my rout... | |
| Want to get into Analog @frogman "Better" is by definition a subjective term, however what I'm referring to are the things that seem to tick the check boxes for "audiophiles", dynamics, details, black backgrounds, soundstage, excetera excetera.I personally get more enjoy... |
