| "Straight" talk Lewn....I wrote what I wrote to say that the adjustment is not just an act to get it done, but a very important one for which care should be given. Too many on these pages seem to go through the motions with alacrity rather than care. The Fozgom... | |
| Anyone tried Vandersteen w/ Spectral? In my experience, Vandersteen speakers perform above their price point. I've heard his speakers with many brands, and with their ability to be adjusted easily, play well with any good brand...including Spectral. | |

| Support table or shelf for turntable I use cones (Bearpaws) under my turntable and found it a very valuable upgrade. Tried other things without that level of success. | |
