| Replacement for VPI TNT mark v I had a similar issue with space years ago. I solved it by having a plinth made from Corian in the dimension (and color) I wanted. Worked like a charm (see my systems pictures to see if this would work for you).Enjoy,Bob | |
| Review: McCormack DNA-250 Amplifier In general, from my experience, the original DNA .5, 1 and 2 were good souonding amps. The Mccormack mods to rev A status transformed them into great amps. Exceptional even.The 150, 250, etc amps incorporated much of the Rev B mods, and as such th... | |
| Turntable Platform - What do you place your TT on Make a cheap mans Ginko Cloud. Just get a maple cutting board of an appropriate size.

| Outdoor opinions? I also run Niles speakers. They sound great, but I do find that I need to put on the loudness button to get sufficient bass when outdoors. | |
| Absorb or Diffuse in between speakers? I have heard cone speakers and horns sound best when there is some absorption between them, meaning the image solidifies in the center and the depth increases. However, with panel speakers diffusion seems to work best.Unfortunately, I think the re... | |
| Acoustic Zen Adagio + REL Strata iii's The Acoustic Zen speakers have a transmission line bass, if I remember correctly. You definitely need a sub with them if you are looking for some kick in the bottom end. The Strata III should add that for you nicely.Congrats. | |
| Prog Rock Sounds like an interesting group of musicians, kind of a super-group. I know Neal was auditioning people for another band he was putting together, but I'm sure that's yet another project outside of this one.Bottom line - there's lots of good prog ... |
