| Manhattan vinyl shops So Aceto, you noticed the great legs on Uma? Sorry to have suggested the "Bop Shop." I always shop them via internet and being from Texas, I see their "New York" address and think of Big Apple (hang head in shame here at my mistake).Guess I need t... | |
| The choice of wall receptacles The outlet offered by Take Five audio is not exactly the same model as mine, nor has it been deep cryo treated at NASA, like the Porter Port.Please note this on their web site too:Duties, taxes, brokerage, and all other fees levied by the destinat... | |
| Laptop Line In I have had excellent luck with this item:http://www.datavideo.us/products/dac_100_main_page.htmAlthough I have not used it with LP's, I have transferred analog tape and video to a laptop and desk computer with no issues. The good news? It's cheap. | |
| What's the deal with the Machina Dynamica Clock? Aggielaw,Any truth to the rumor that there will be a "Jock" strap model of that device? No word on how much growth may be experienced, but as a caution I'm selling all my stock in the company that manufactures Viagra. | |
| Arctic Monkeys Thank you Ben, I guess the Euro bands are invading the USA again with great music, and not a moment too soon. | |
| Shunyata Anaconda Alpha or Elrod Statement? Yes the ends may be changed. As for concerns about fluid, the newest Purist Audio cables are filled with Contego, not fluid. Anyway, the fluid or Contego stops a few inches from the termination point with a flexible section. The seal is not broken... | |
| where do you bye your LPs Aceto, your the "card." :^)I know I'm too old and have no chance, but a man's got a right to dream doesn't he? Anyway, I think that's why pretty girls ARE in movies, guys can't help but admire them. | |
| Katie Melua, has anyone else bought her new LP? Marco, the video wasn't called "Silence of the Katie's" was it? | |
| Katie Melua, has anyone else bought her new LP? That's too bad, 'cause Katie says it betterI won't spend my life, waiting for an angel to descend,searching for a rainbow with an end,now that I've found you I'll call off the search.and I won't spend my life, gazing at the stars up in the skywond... | |
| Arctic Monkeys I hope the group is as much of a turn on as the samples I heard at AMG. After listening, I purchased their LP from a vendor in England and should have it in a week or two. | |
| Shunyata Anaconda Alpha or Elrod Statement? Leonx, First of all, I am prejudiced. I have been using Purist Audio cables for 20 years and it's absolutely my favorite. I might be able to loan you a Purist power cable in the near future. I just swapped out four to the new Aqueous Anniversary a... | |
| VTL 75 75 deluxe amp...... Input/Driver tubes???? 12BH7 may work in that circuit, it is designed with similar parameters as 12AU7 and 12AT7. I used 12BH7 in my Air Tight ATM3's and got a huge upgrade.If you want to play it safe, score some Telefunken 12AT7 off EBAY, plug, play and be prepared for... | |
| Searching for power amps with low damping factor. http://www.mcintoshlabs.com/data/compare/ampcomp3.04web.pdfThis is a PDF, you will need a reader. | |
| Setting to Recommended Tracking Weight Is Wrong Maybe that's why Koetsu doesnt give a specification for track force. Their suggestion is to "set it by ear," although the importer can give minimum / maximum to play around with.During such testing, a precision stylus force gauge is helpful. It c... | |
| Shunyata Anaconda Alpha or Elrod Statement? Actually Krelldog gave the better answer, your the one that has to live with this decision long term. |
