| What's up with lousy bass on classic rock recordings? Mapman Color me confused - Not sure how I was blessed to be included in this thread not once but twice (I had never opened/read it prior to getting an email notice) but thanks for the info lol | |
| Shakti Stone Flame away. I use them in my system to excellent effect. One on my preamp and one on my phono stage. It takes all of 5 seconds to remove them and another 5 seconds to put them back. I have not personally experienced any loss of spaciousness, any... | |
| New Dedicated Line - Almost No improvement In my case (2022) it was $1500 for the 4 lines and about the same to upgrade/rebuild the box. I also had him inspect my ground rod. The connection to the box was badly decayed (he showed me that) so the ground was not even connected. This apparent... | |
| New Dedicated Line - Almost No improvement My story: I’m not too savy when it comes to electrical knowledge. In my case, I hired a highly regarded electrician who installed multiple 20 amp dedicated lines to my music room. He did an extensive rebuild/update of my box so everything is up ... | |
| Thiel Owners Tom Thiel, thanks for the reply. I wish I could locally find a stock pair the way they were intended to be… My gut was telling me to pass on these as they could be less than a shadow of what they were intended to be but I’ve been watching this par... | |
| Thiel Owners I own a fully restored (by Krell in 2020) KSA 250s paired with a Krell KRC 3 preamp through balanced connections. Would this match well with a pair of CS 3.6? The KSA is rated at 2000 watts into 1 ohm. Here is a link to the particular speakers... | |
| Anyone else still loving Hales Speakers? I use Revelation 3’s powered by a Krell KSA-250s paired with a KRC-3 preamp using a balanced connection. To my ears, a match made in Heaven. I have no desire to change speakers…or really anything about my system. | |
| Does a cartridge that has been in storage for an extended period need play time… The more use I’ve given the Sonata 1 over the past two days, the better its sounded but I still felt it was missing top end air. I swapped my older Allnic H1200 phono preamp (new tubes and fully checked out in October) for the Ray Samuels Nightha... | |
| Does a cartridge that has been in storage for an extended period need play time… Thanks, lewm. I appreciate that info. | |
| Does a cartridge that has been in storage for an extended period need play time… “recommended overhang is determind by your tonearm” Thanks, I learn something new everyday. I have overhang dialed in now and it altered/improved the sound. Thanks again. | |
| Does a cartridge that has been in storage for an extended period need play time… Thanks for the replies. I don’t have specific information about previous hours used or storage time - I need to ask better questions. I bought it on a whim second hand from a member here. I spent a good amount of time installing the cartridge and... | |
| Porsche I will never be without a 911. EVER. | |
| what is the best cassette tape maker in your experience? In my youth, after experimenting with different brands and formulas, I settled on TDK MA cassettes as the best performance to price ratio cassettes for use in my Akai GX F95 deck. I taped most of my new lp purchases with this combo and always had... | |
| Opinions Needed: Hales vs. Tannoy The Hales will remain in my possession in my collection of classic equipment lol | |
| Opinions Needed: Hales vs. Tannoy Russ69 wrote “I didn’t see a picture that included your room and speaker/sub setup. The Elac sub can’t be adding much if you are looking for more bass.”Thanks for the reply. Just looking to simplify/eliminate pieces from my system. If I could add... |
