| ST-70 modifications Just to add a little more detail to my request, I am not an experienced DIY'er. I have made interconnects and refoamed speakers but that is about it. I am pretty comfortable with my ability to solder and follow instructions and take my time on pro... | |
| Refoaming vintage OHM speakers Already contacted Ohm. They would only sell me new woofers at $145 a piece. Really want to try to refoam first. | |
| Which songs/albums take you back to college? All The Young Dudes - Mott The HoopleMy Old School - Steely DanTheme For An Imaginary Western - Mountain | |
| Which female artist I would also highly recommend Jennifer Warnes (The Hunter, The Well and Famous Blue Rain Coat). But I am also surprised that no one has mentioned Mary Black, one of my all time favorites. I especially like No Frontiers and Holy Ground, but almost ... | |
| 1 piece of audio gear I really regret selling is.. Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 | |

| will adding a subwoofer improve overall audio I have a relatively modest system in a small room (Sonic Frontiers pre, Classe amp, Rotel/MSB front end, North Creek Music speakers with Kimber and Cardas wiring. I added an M&K sub right before they went out of business. For me the addition a... | |
| Question about tubes in the old days When I was in high school (70's) I had a Dynaco SCA-35 integrated amp...about 17 watts/side using EL-84 tubes. I listened to that thing for hours on end. I never replaced a tube. When I went to college I moved to a Pioneer solid state receiver. Fa... | |
| The best acoustic guitar recordings?? I would recomend another Michael Hedges album: "Watching My Life Go By" and then relatively early Phil Keaggy stuff like "The Wind and the Wheat" and especially "Beyond Nature". | |
| 'they blew'em off the stage' Many years ago the pre-Joe Walsh Eagles upstaged a post-Joe Walsh James Gang. The line up was:James GangEaglesThe Souther, Hillman and Furay Band.Not a bad night. | |
| How do you ship large items? Help I bought some decent sized speakers a couple of years ago. The seller built crates to ship them, and we used Greyhound to transport. Worked like a dream, and very reasonable price. You might look into Greyhound Bus Line. | |
| McIntosh MC-60 Binding Terminals I have a pair of stock MC-60s and second the recomendation to not modify them. To work around the narrow barrier strips I found some copper connectors at Home Depot that I can screw into the existing barrier strips, I then used some (short) decent... | |
| Proac Response 2.5 and subwoofer ? I use a pair of North Creek Music Borealis speakers, which are, to a large degree, a clone of the Proacs. I recently added a relatively low-priced M&K sub before they went out of business. For me there was a measureable improvement in the soun... | |

| Do you ever use the balance on your pre amp? Yep. In the same boat as you. I don't have a symetrical set up, and I neeed either a balance control or a dual mono preamp to get the sound right. I realise it is not the purest of set ups, but it is what I need to get it right for me. I tried a d... |
