| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Since somebody asked, my recent listening includes the Vijay Ayer Trio's "Break Stuff," Ingrid Laubrock Anti-House's "Roulette of the Cradle" (get yer modern music hat on for that one), and a new album from the Julian Lage trio I worked with last ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Rave on fuse heads! Mass hysteria aside, I suppose I'll simply wait for a reasonable explanation as to WHY a fuse would make what ardent promotors feel is such a huge improvement…somehow, based on the artful (or not so much) dodging of any basic t... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I do have faith in tweaks that have worked for me, but in order for me even try something It has to pass a logic test with a basis in reality…there's a hyper promotion vibe in this thread that seems purchased, and that permeates and taints the who... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... There are millions of Mormans and I remain a committed atheist. If somebody sent me a pile of these fuses without a ransom fee, I'd try them and then report that they don't work just to continue to make my point…I have no wiggle room. So now I hav... | |
| stereo for the joy of it - can records be cleaned? I use a Spin Clean and Mofi Master sleeves in all my cleaned vinyl. This system might not work as well as a vacuum rig, but it does work and man…some of my vinyl goes back to the 60s and seems pretty ragged, but cleaned up they can sound great. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Note that 42% of the posts on this thread have come from 4 individuals, with oregonpapa currently ahead of charles1dad 190 to 173. Come on charles, you're SO close! | |
| What is best turntable for listening to Rock from the sixties like Led Zeppelin? I’m from Honolulu where I worked as a musician from 1967 to 1986. I moved to the Right Coast, still play here and there, and mix live concerts as an insanely esthetically rewarding sideline (highly recommended). The name Wolf Garcia is the result ... | |
| What is best turntable for listening to Rock from the sixties like Led Zeppelin? I primarily use 3 electric guitars these days (and one lap steel) made with differing woods, pickups, bridges, etc., and the sound and feel of each is completely different. That's why I use them. My amps are tube (except my current bass amp) with ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I utterly disagree with the assertion that my last post wasn't funny…there were plenty of funny parts in it. At least 3. I do enjoy this entire thread as a prime example of Audio Mysticism, and can further describe what I think is happening here (... | |
| What is best turntable for listening to Rock from the sixties like Led Zeppelin? I’ve professionally mixed, recorded, and performed electric and acoustic music for decades, and if anybody thinks acoustic instruments are less dynamic than electric ones, they’re unaware of the of the basics of music sound and reproduction. And t... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... To "take the plunge" for 30 days means hundreds of dollars sent to people I don't trust, a time period to test fuses that would be rendered useless if the fuse was in backwards, and a very expensive proposition to replace all of the fuses in my r... | |
| I have seen some Interesting comments about Mcintosh lately Surfers don't need tide data if they're surfing because they're actually physically in the data stream and can see and feel the currents…I wear a watch while surfing to see what time it is, and to show off my cool watches when they're not hidden u... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I'm one of the few that has asserted that a fuse can't make a difference approaching anything like described ad nauseum in this thread (as long as the fuse holder is clean and functioning as designed…letting unfettered electrons through until sens... | |
| What is best turntable for listening to Rock from the sixties like Led Zeppelin? Yeah…anybody who isn't clueless about actual music might have differing views. What nonsense…a clear weird bias against supposed "guitar amp fuzz" indicating a very limited understanding or appreciation of great Rock and Roll music renders the pre... | |
| Cable length dilemma! Close the flue…and put something on the roof to retrieve the lows that escaped! There's an easy test to see if the fireplace is "detrimental" and that is to put a rug or something that absorbs sound over the fireplace and listen to the system. I s... |
