| Music to die to Oh megosh, this thread is an analyst's dream! Please keep it coming. Thankyou INNA for bringing this up! | |
| Music to die to Spike Jones' "My old flame", or anything else of his, for that matter, so I can speed up the process by laughing my head off. But "my old flame" would be most apt, because some of the ladies, listening to the lyrics and the imitation of Peter Lorr... | |
| Single ended vs. XLR Connection Advise Needed Balanced connections theoretically will povide a tad more intertransient silence, but often you will discern no difference between the two, if your setup is low on noise anyway. I happily use both types in my system, but prefer XLRs for practical ... | |
| Sibelius Symphonies I thoroughly agree with Greg: Sir John Barbirolli on EMI and Colin Davis on Phillips, especially the 2nd. | |
| Best Electrostatic loudspeaker? Jeffrey, I have had experience with the 989 and have driven them with Jadis 500s, Spectral 360s, Gryphon Reference monos and InnerSound monos in direct comparison with the Sound Lab Pristine. Wires by Nordost, MIT and the ones sold by InnerSound, ... | |
| What's better: RCA or XLR? Great post Craig, must try listening for what you describe.Cheers, | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Dammit Gumby!!!! (-: | |
| What's better: RCA or XLR? Since Joeb's post seems to me NOT about the difference in sound between balanced or unbalanced ICs but about the difference of XLR and RCA connectors, I must say, that I personally prefer XLRs to RCAs, although I cannnot really discern any differe... | |

| How do you adjust tonearm damping? On the Goldmund I do it by ear: When sssybilants become sybilants, the mids are open and the bottom is nice and tight, I'm satisfied. | |
| Lights and Lectrostats? or electrostatics? Sean, 'tis true what you say about Acoustats I think, with the Stax 91 on par with them. | |
| Lights and Lectrostats? or electrostatics? There are stators which attract, others which repell dust and other unpleasancies. I often light a candle when listening, and over the years my Quads, Staxes and SLs haven't complained. One CAN be too finicky. However, there are candles and candle... | |
| Anybody who has experice with multi arm tables?? Chazzbo, I've often used more than one tonearm, but have found that switches degrade the signal. The best so far has been a professional patch bay (Roumanis, if I recall). But better still is switching cables at the preamp's phonoinput. (Helps kee... | |
| A search for great cables for electrostatics Tekunda , apologies, I must have been out of my mind! The Prodigy is a stator and a very good one at that. Please forgive. Detlof | |
| A search for great cables for electrostatics Bradz, I have not really experimented very much with the Innersound amp, (I have the Esl monos ) because I was very happy with them right out of the box with Sanders' speaker cables AND his balanced ICs. I can assure you, that in that combination,... |
