| Vibration control devices for EMM CDSA. Solid Tech Feet Of Silence make a big difference, with no negatives. I also use a maple platform from Mapleshade below the Feet of Silence. Damping always sounds bad to me. | |
| EMM CDSA SE Player, How many hours required I found that it took a good 200 - 300 hours also before the player started sounding very good. Before this, I didn't get what all the fuss was about.Now it is my favorite digital. | |
| cartridge mistracks in final 25 of a record side It had enough travel, but the tonearm wire was causing the arm to be pulled towards the outside of the record, like a strong anti-skate setting. | |
| cartridge mistracks in final 25 of a record side Problem solved! It turned out that the tonearm wire was being pulled too tightly at the point where it left the back of the tonearm tube. This was causing the tonearm to be pulled towards the outside of the record. This effect only would come into... | |
| cartridge mistracks in final 25 of a record side The arm is a triplanar. It is not hitting the arm rest, and has enough travel. | |
| TriPlanar Tips ? about removing the dampening trough: Do you also remove the flat metal bar that the trough attaches directly to? Also, it looks as though you definitely have to remove the arm from the armboard (Teres) to remove the dampening trough. Correct? | |
| Which makes the bigger difference? My experience is that anything that obscures low level detail will reduce soundstaging. After all, it is the low level detail that creates the soundstaging effect. All components in a system will obscure detail to some extent, so more revealing ge... | |
| EMM Labs DAC2 What is the price of the DAC2? How about the price of the TSD1? | |
| arc cd 7 vs wavelength crimson If you are considering buying either of these units, please contact Don Better from www.donbetter.com.He is a dealer for both of the units and can likely help answer your questions. | |
| SRA or Symposium? I have had both, and still use the SRA. The Symposium was not nearly as natural sounding. It makes things sound artificially bright, mostllikely due to the aluminum construction. The SRA come with feet that are supposed to be used as part of the i... | |
| Blind Shoot-out in San Diego -- 5 CD Players Was any listening done with the APL direct into the amp, bypassing the preamp?What preamp, amp, and speakers were used for the comparison?Is the version used in the test, the best sounding version of the Emm gear? | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? Alex,Can you give a few examples of good sounding powercords that use pure silver, unsheilded, and non-twisted?Thanks! | |
| APL NWO2.5 ? I must say it is frustrating when a poster compares equiptment but does not disclose the actual name of the equiptment used in the comparison. It kinda makes mentioning the comparison useless to everybody besides the poster. | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? It's very silly to think one will keep adigital player forever. The technology changes way too fast for this. I could see keeping a great amplifier forever or a great speaker, but not digital. | |
| Esoteric DV-50: Any cdp's Significantly better? Any thoughts to not letting the listeners know which player they are listening to? This would certainly make the results infinitely less biased. A person's preconceived notions about the performance of each player is going to greatly color their p... |
