| Music Server vs. PC vs. Transport vs. ? Marcmen: You should state that you are a dealer/distributor of the Qsonix product since you have them refurbished/show demos for sale/auction right now. | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion Tigerwoodkhorns: I think people recommend the rewire if you don't have the M5G version which has the better cabling (which is what I had). I can't speak for how it sounds with the stock wiring for the other versions. I think the fluid damper shoul... | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion Drubin: First off THE SL1200's are a bargain and provide a base unit that can be upgraded to pretty stellar results. I intend to buy another SL1200 and mod everything on it and it will still cost less than getting a second tonearm on a high end ta... | |
| Loricraft Record Cleaning Rfogel8: I agree the prices are nuts now, the Clearaudio's don't have as big of a static problem because of the vaccuum pad is microfiber instead of the felt on the VPI. I keep mentioning the static issue because it was a HUGE problem for me at my... | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion The Shelter 501 Mk 2 works without the fluid damper but you owe it to yourself to put the fluid damper on as it provides the biggest improvement in the arm. I ran the Shelter without but after hearing my old table with the fluid damper on I probab... | |
| Downgrading from JC-1's...which amp should I get? Sell some plasma, sperm, blood or something else.....Those choices you listed will not be anywhere near as refined as your JC-1's.Sell one pair of speakers.. how/why are you running two pairs of speakers? just curious.. | |
| Loricraft Record Cleaning Rfogel8: On the lower end Smart Double Matrix, they put a mirror below the record so you can see the other side with a little side lighting while it cleans. And you don't have to worry about too much vaccuming (more than 2 spins on a VPI generates... | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion When I did my research Mapleshade worked better if you had solid footing for the turntable rack, my friend (who bought mine) put the mapleshade footer (M6 thread) on his and put that on top of a 4" thick Maple board and the results are stunning. | |
| Loricraft Record Cleaning I'll second the Clearaudio recommendation, if you can't afford the double matrix then look at the Smart Double matrix (about half the cost) where all you do is squeeze the fluid bottle to float fluid on the recond on both sides is a dream, plus si... | |
| Technics 1210/RB-250 vs. stock arm + fluid damper 3-18-08: TvadI found it interesting that the Artisan Audio Capricio tonearm offered on Galibier turntables...very fine tables...has a removable headshell with azimuth adjustment ala the Sumiko headshell for the Technics. for the price of that arm ... | |
| Meridian as a Preamp Question Stanwine: in response to your "Ultimately are you saying that a good two channel preamp despite inferior DAC's will produce a better result?"NO, I would say that if you are using the DAC power of your surround processor, adding a preamp might give... | |
| Goodbye CD's I loved borders selection but I didn't like the $18.99 for a cd that retails for $13.99... pricing... Best Buy doesn't have any selection anymore, Circuit City is a mess for selection... looks like Amazon is going to win on this one.. | |
| Meridian as a Preamp Question I own a Meridian 568.2 and I use to own WP7's (now Maxx's), compared to my EAD signature the Meridian I found to be too sterile but way better for surround (Dolby II, subwoofer setup, amazing clarity), changing the footers to Sorbothane helped to ... | |

| Best MUSICAL subwoofer for Maxx 2's quality sound? Rnm4: It doesn't matter how full range a speaker is when placed ideally for imaging (away from walls) you can lose bass reinforcement. You can also end up with the main speakers in a bass null related to the seating position. So using actively cro... |
