| Subwoofer matching Chilli, Any subwoofer that can match the volume you like to listen at will be fine. Most of us rarely listen over 95 dB and any pair of 12" subwoofers will do that easily. They all have adjustable gain. You just adjust it to match the output of yo... | |
| Your opinions about KOETSU URUSHI BLUE or VERMILLION tkr, it is that euphoric quality that some of us love about the Koetsu's. You would have to add a lot of weight to the SME V to get the bass right.I use my Koetsu for string quartets and the like not for R+R and rarely for Jazz. The other cartridg... | |
| 60Hz hum Or a bad diode jeaSimon, I think you are absolutely right. Your integrated needs to be sent in for service. I would send it in to NAD. Or, you can dump it and get something new. Mike | |
| Your opinions about KOETSU URUSHI BLUE or VERMILLION Mulveling, The Rosewood Signature Platinum weights 3 to 4 grams less than a stone bodied cartridge and requires a heavier tonearm to get the same bass impact. Bass and "impact" are the two most sensitive characteristics of a cartridge, the easiest... | |
| How much will you pay for an exotic cartridge.... Davey, it is much more than just the cost of buying and shipping the cartridge. It is having a storefront, insurance, salespeople etc so you can waltz in, listen and make an informed decision on what you want to buy.Having said that, it all depend... | |
| Frustrated with Vinly As far as reissues vs original pressing is concerned it is a crap shoot. Can go either way. As far as gunk in the groove of new records is concerned, there isn't any. Nada, nothing. I once played 15 new records in a row under a dust cover using a ... | |
| Your opinions about KOETSU URUSHI BLUE or VERMILLION Koetsu's may vary a little one to another even of the same model. then there is the set up and toenarms used. The paint used has absolutely no influence on the sound. Mulveling is right! I did not know this but the Vermillion has a different coil ... | |
| Active or passive? The best crossover is no crossover. Having said that I have not ever heard a speaker do low bass well. Maybe there is one out there but I have not heard it. So, we are stuck with subwoofers. I am going to side with George on this one. If you have ... | |
| Strange film on new records. Kryptonite nc. I would guess it is past the time to return the records or they are limited old stock and hard to find. A pressure washer will not damage a record. I will prove that when the weather gets warmer. As I have said before I never have t... | |
| Your opinions about KOETSU URUSHI BLUE or VERMILLION Andy, Koetsu's have nice warm bass if you put them in the right tonearm.They are very stiff cartridges and require a tonearm with a high effective mass on the order of 18 to 20 grams. If you put them in a tonearm that is too light the bass will ge... | |
| Jerry Raskin's Needle Doctor Gone? Yes, it is strange he did not sell the business if the "money was good."He could have just fire saled it or given it to the employees. Something else is going on here he does not want to talk about. Cancer of the tongue is certainly a brutal disea... | |
| Strange film on new records. I forgot to mention. If it is a fungus soaking the records in chlorine bleach and water before using the pressure washer will kill the fungus. | |
| Strange film on new records. uberwaltz, the mold release agent is mixed in with the PVC. It is one of the additives along with plasticizer. Acetone will not melt the record. P-J, try brake cleaning fluid. Wipe with a microfiber cloth. Most brushes will not reach to the bottom... | |
| DIY Acoustic Panels millercarbon, if that is true all you have to do is adjust the damper but it would depend on the length of the chimney. | |
