| Which cables go with what????? All cables have colorations. You just have to decide which ones sound good to you. | |
| Am I wrong? You should ask your dealer for some type of loaner when your new unit is down for repair. | |
| Help me clean and restore my vinyl collection I like the generic plastic antistatic inner and outer sleeves from sleevetown.com. Cheap and good! The Buggtusse concentrate (available from Audio Advisor amongst others) is the way to for cleaning. | |
| My weakest link?? What in particular do you find lacking in your system? | |
| Arm board material? A sheet of carbon fiber material would probably be good as well. It's strong and non-resonant. | |
| Super Tweeters I have experience with speakers that have integral supertweeters. There is an audible difference with some "dulling" of the high frequencies when you cover them. | |
| SACD Player Mods vs. Outboard D/A converter? In terms of absolute bang for the buck, I'd go with some mods from someone like Dan Wright. If you're willing to spend $2000 or more for the DAC, you'll probably get better performance from the outboard unit. I previously faced a similar situation... | |
| Audiophile grade CD Carrousel/changer? Am I crazy? Why not consider an outboard DAC and keep your current changer as a transport? | |
| Where to use aftermarket power cords? I noticed that my responses to Audiogon threads have been much more insightful since I started using an aftermarket power cord on my PC. My spelling has improved also. I don't know of there is a similar effect on Macs. | |
| Why Veneer? Veneer over particle board is far less expensive than solid hardwood. Manufacturers claim that the lesser resonance of the particle board is an advantage also. | |
| Fleetwood Mac - Say You Will- Your Thoughts? Ick! It's really bad. | |
| Good ROCK speakers I can't remember a speaker that can ROCK like Klipsch Cornwalls, especially for the price that you can get them for these days! | |
| setting up a listening room in unfinished basement Start by investigating the Cardas and Echo Busters websites. The Rives Audio website has some suggestions and tools to use as well. | |
| Zanden DAC Perhaps the cure is worse than the disease when it comes to the design of some DACs! | |
| Unwanted radio signal from turntable You might try a different length of interconnect cable. Do make sure it is a shielded type. |
