| Acoustic doors? Hals_denFor a more permanent fix, I'm thinking a heavy exterior door with good seals would be the most economical solution. Can anyone recommend some good manufacturers of such doors?I don't know where you live, but if there's a Home Depot or Lowe... | |
| Exotic turntables. Eye candy Pryso, I can't tell you constrained layer or multi ply birch are superior with the SP10 MK2, I've not even completed mine yet. Audiogon member Vetterone has done a LOT of experiments with plints. You can contact him via the Audiogon server by look... | |
| Acoustic doors? Nsgarch I think we are agreeing and disagreeing.I agree with your comment on mass and that's why I posted the comment about two doors. However, the space between them is some benefit too, especially if a sound panel is attached. (Hals_den said aes... | |
| Why are there no high end cheater plugs? Glad floating the preamp helped you, my system will not work with grounds connected, all I get is hum. Oddly enough the one time the system did not hum with grounded cords, the preamp was floated inside by design and the amps were Atma-Sphere MA2'... | |
| Acoustic doors? To reduce sound transmission you need one or more air spaces, this reduces the path that sound can travel through.First option is two or three solid core doors where you create an air gap between each. I don't know your room or construction of you... | |
| Experience with Raul's Essential 3150 Audiofiel and I have exchanged email, we do fine. As I've stated in previous posts, I'm willing to listen to the Essential again after Raul finishes tweaking. I even offered product photography, which has real value since that's what I do for a li... | |
| Nitty Gritty's FIRSTrv pre-cleaner ??? I still have one full container of the original (banned) First record cleaner. It's my original world class standard for removing mold release and stubborn deposits. Unfortunately it became impossible to continue manufacturing after the EPA began ... | |
| Exotic turntables. Eye candy GenesisBTW the SP10 MK2 can be a very nice sounding table. What are you going to use as a plinth? Pls let me know how you like the sound.One of the guys in my audio group is a fine furniture builder by trade. He and I came up with a design based o... | |
| Experience with Raul's Essential 3150 Is the new 3160 model a circuit change or cosmetic? I ask because when Raul was here I ask why the umbilical cords were mounted on the front rather than the rear. Visually it was unappealing and Raul said he planned to change that in the new model... | |
| Exotic turntables. Eye candy Thanks for the link. I'm currently building up a Technics SP10 and enjoyed viewing some of the cosmetic touches these audiophiles came up with. | |
| Why are there no high end cheater plugs? Yep, that would indeed a problem. Maybe Stealth would deliver them new with the ground floated? Then again, some lawyer somewhere would sue them for delivering an unsafe product.Funny thing is, my home was built in the 1950's and until I redid my ... | |
| Why are there no high end cheater plugs? I remove the ground inside the power cord at the IEC connector (the end that plugs into the equipment). I leave the ground connected to the wall socket and that end of the power cord as well. The ground wire inside the AC cord benefits from having... | |
| Best "New" Acoustical Treatment Science Advance Sol322,Sol, your idea really shines. Cryo-treated Horse traps would be the cats meow (or maybe the horses neigh). We need a way to promote this, maybe with a give away to keep customers thinking about us.Wonder if there would be any interest in go... | |
| Best "New" Acoustical Treatment Science Advance Unsound, I think more likely pure SS. We're talking sheep here, not bulls. | |
| Best "New" Acoustical Treatment Science Advance Jkalman, that's sage advice. In fact, It inspired me to come up with a great promo item to help you spread the word about your room treatment. Print up a batch of black T shirts with year round calendar and tupping days highlighted in red. This hi... |
