| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment I just tried the stuff on one of those pesky, non-playing, scratched all to hell DVDs from the video rental store Friday nite. It worked just as well as my UltraBit Platinum(the disc played perfectly after treatment). This thread will save me a lo... | |
| Which is better longer xlr or speaker cable What you are sending to the amps is a signal composed of, not just one voice(vocal or instrument), but a compilation of everything and everyone performing, plus the imaging and ambient info contained on the recording, etc. A bit more complex than ... | |
| wiring a US hubbel plug OK Chad- You win! =8^) | |
| Into 2009; What rules?? Tubes or Solid State If you are serious about the sound of music: T U B E S !! | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment If everyone maintained a commitment to existing theories of what explains observations that dismissed new observations, there would be no further "science". | |
| wiring a US hubbel plug Just to use the proper terminology for alternating current circuits: Copper colored screw- HOT(black wire), tin colored screw- NEUTRAL(white wire), and of course green screw and wire for ground. BTW: The only "dumb question" is the one that's not ... | |
| Cd Player Suggestions This: (http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?dgtlplay&1231208697&/Balanced-Audio-VK-D5-BAT) Install some NOS Siemens 7308/E188CC or Amperex tubes, and you'll be in musical heaven. I've got NOS, early 60's Siemens CCa's in mine, and it's h... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Eldartford- Don't you think I know all that? Couldn't resist the chain-yank though! If we can't have a little fun in here: What's the point? =8^) | |
| Which is better longer xlr or speaker cable Agreed that it's an advantage to have short speaker cables(still go with the best you can afford). Don't for a minute believe that, "the quality of the IC doesn't matter as much with balanced cable"! We're discussing a complex musical signal here,... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment He won't hear any difference on Blose 901's anyway(hee hee). What a waste of keystrokes! | |
| Peanuts from hell Two boxes, with strategically placed foam rubber strips(glued) to act as a suspension between the boxes(spacing at least a couple inches all around the inner box). The item wrapped in bubble wrap. That's only if you care enough, and don't have the... | |
| Problem when volume turn up Turn it up a "1/4" from what level? You say it works fine at "moderate volume". I'd have to agree to the amp shutting down via a protection circuit. If what you are experiencing is not a result of you trying to get higher SPLs than the system is c... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Hey Craig- Did you have any idea that posting your very successful experiments and results would bring these semi-deaf, nay-saying, untesting but highly opinionated termites out of the woodwork? =8^) | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment BTW: The Rain-X concept is(filling and polishing micro-scratches) to make glass too slick for water to adhere, and has worked wonderfully for me. I had my wipers go out on a Camaro, in a thunderstorm, some years back. Found an auto parts store, bo... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment The problems that polishes and green markers address has nothing to do with "jitter". LASERs can and will mistrack/misread, if skewed by scratches(microscopic or otherwise)on the disc's surface, or if picking up stray/reflected LASER light. Treate... |
