| mono cartridge vs stereo EBM - what you are saying is absolutist and contrary to what others have written. It seems you can use the Y adaptor approach, but you lose some fidelity. How much, I don't know. But most people don't have the capacity for two tonearms or the abil... | |
| mono cartridge vs stereo Oh, and two other things. I'm assuming that with the Y adaptor approach, you're not just taking one channel and splitting it into two. That you are in fact blending the two channels and then distributing the blended signal to two RCA's.I should al... | |
| Buy Mono vs. Stereo LPs for Stereo Rig Oh, and I should add that I have an outboard phono preamp. I assume that I should place the double Y adaptor device between my phono preamp and my linestage preamp? | |
| Buy Mono vs. Stereo LPs for Stereo Rig Hi Mechans,I've looked through some of the archives. I'm not finding everything I need, or if it's there, it's pretty embedded and hard to find. To be more specific about my question:, I have a single tonearm available to me, and it is set up for ... | |
| mono cartridge vs stereo Guys, I have a single tonearm available to me, and it is set up for stereo. I've got two questions:1) When using the Y adaptor, do you need two Y adaptors, one to sum the L+R channels and one to redistribute them back to L+R outputs?2) If you defi... | |

| Magic and mystery of master tape As an ex taper of Grateful Dead concerts, I can tell you that the master was always the best. Every generation away created a loss in dynamics and clarity. There is great value in getting close to the master! | |

| Equalizers - don't listen to the nay sayers Which brings up another question: if your source is digital, is it better to equalize in the digital domain? | |
| Equalizers - don't listen to the nay sayers Looking at the DSP Studio in JRiver, I note that one can add parametric equalization on a per-channel basis but the typical band-type equalizer is applied to both channels simultaneously. | |
| DIY Power Cable Report So how much did the raw materials cost per cable? | |
| USB to I2S that supports DSD I've heard that the USB input is quite good on the W4S. For redbook recordings, I've heard some say that converting USB to I2S (using an Empirical Audio Offramp 5) is no longer needed (might require FEMTO Clock - does yours have one - upgrade cost... | |
| Connecting headphone and tablet to high end system Whoops, perhaps your tablet is not an iPad. I do believe you can get digital out into a USB form on other tablets too. That is worth researching. | |
| Connecting headphone and tablet to high end system Yes, you definitely can use the tape inputs and outputs for that purpose. However, you may want to consider using a better adapter to get digital out of your tablet and sending it to a DAC, rather than using the headphone out of your iPad. If you ... | |
