Herron VTPH-2A / Origin Live Conqueror / Koetsu Black Goldline
Frank, the table I use is of my own design, described in my post above dated the 18th. Here's an early photo http://www.teresaudio.com/fame/cmiller.jpgAt this time it was powered by an early Teres motor pod using the silk thread in the photo. Buil... 
Herron VTPH-2A / Origin Live Conqueror / Koetsu Black Goldline
dodge alum, I mentioned how many times I've been a little shocked at how real it sounds. A wood block or rim shot is so incisively sharp and true to life. A bass line comes in on a Jennifer Warnes track I know by heart, only now its not just full-... 
Herron VTPH-2A / Origin Live Conqueror / Koetsu Black Goldline
Yeah and mine comes in to listen with me a lot more often now too.I just had a nice conversation with Keith Herron. Just a few of the many interesting bits-The tubes that make it into the VTPH 2A are warmed up for 2 hours before testing. 1 dB too ...

You got 300 LPs including a stack of Sheffields and direct-to-discs and the first thing you want to do is buy another record??? First thing I'd be doing is picking through that stack! Second thing, buying a good ultrasonic record cleaner. Third, z...

When my father in laws Fischer finally died I said let me take care of that. Got him some nice bookshelf speakers, 5-disc changer, integrated amp, speaker cables, interconnects, power cords and Cones for everything, all properly budgeted, grand to...

Power Purpose
Want to blow your mind? Some evening after listening a while go and flip off as many breakers as you can, ideally leaving only the stereo circuit on.You can thank me later. 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
I once believed in the power of measurement and placebo. That was back when I struggled to hear any difference between DACs and CDPs. Well after years reading nothing but Stereo Review, with Julian Hirsch and his wire is wire measurements uber all...

Its my Miller Carbon table. Its built around the Teres bearing and platter, with the superb Verus rim drive motor. The base is made from a BDR Source Shelf, with another large round threaded "nut" made from Source Shelf holds the bearing. The bear...

Same to you.

A few points the idea of these working on the electromagnetic spectrum will need to contend with. In no particular order:The radio frequency at a wavelength on the order of 10mm is around 30GHz. While harmonics at a few multiples of 20kHz exist, a...

My understanding is these work by vibration control. They are shaped just like tiny little bass traps. Take the dimensions, work out the math, they are damping ultrasonic vibrations, frequencies on the order of 40kHz and above. Exactly how this wo... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
My experience has been few things are less important than understanding why.Just listen to em. All you need to know.

Yes I'm surprised more people aren't able to realize the many advantages to tweaking what you have compared to buying a new component. Not that there's anything wrong with component upgrades. I just brought home a game-changer, Herron VTPH-2A. Pro...
