| Dealing with Static on LP palyback @lewm I'll try to answer all your questions - When I found static on he LP, I could hear it crackle and pop as I picked the LP up. During playing I could hear a constant snap and crackle quietly in the background. This is unlike a click or a p... | |
| Dealing with Static on LP palyback @lewm Well, yes, but you only have to apply it once. So, the lunch may not be free, but it is very close to free. The sound quality improvement alone is worth the effort. I look at it as a sound quality improvement first and static elimination ... | |
| Shunyata speaker cables At that price range, you will be far better off buying them with an understanding you can return them if you don't like them. Shoveling out $4 digits of money for any cable deserves a return policy. Look at this way, you can toss $4,000 worth ... | |
| Quality Audio FM Tuners I have a great tuner but out where I live, the FM reception signal strength is puny at best and this particular house seems to be FM proof. I've thought about an antenna, but I'm reluctant to climb up on the roof to install one, and it will need ... | |
| Recorded Cleaning Machnies Quick update - I got a few old, trashed albums from a dumpster dive. Some are in terrible shape. I ran them through the ultrasonic cleaning process twice, and other than a number of minor scratches, they are very quiet. | |
| Dealing with Static on LP palyback Yes, but I will continue to use it just for the sound quality as well as static. | |
| has anyone succeeded in running the BluOS Controller on a Linux laptop? I can't answer your question, but I have had a lot of problems in the beginning using Bluesound with ROON the first few years I had the Node. It is only in the last few months the problems seemed to go away, so I assume one of the more recent upd... | |
| Dealing with Static on LP palyback @chayro Thanks for the tip on Gruv Glide! Yep! I am sold! I purchased it and it arrived yesterday. I followed the instructions, and my wife and I listened to a Neil Diamond record post ultrasonic cleaning and then a before and after test using... | |
| Rack Stack Vibration Isolation advice @whyrichard Sorry, let me give you more detail. Consider a layered isolation platform, like a big Dagwood sandwich. (I'm assuming you remember the old Dagwood comic strip - google it if you need a photo). There is sliced bread, a layer of mayo,... | |
| Some thoughts about tonearm wire @lewm Actually, the 0.080 Ohms is not my criterion, it was posted earlier in this thread by westcoastaudiophile. I don't know how s/he came up with that or if it was published somewhere. Either way, if a tonearm wire resistance is that low, it w... | |

| Spotify lossless error into DDC Is Spotify really lossless 100% of the time? The last I looked at it only some of what they broadcast is lossless, the rest is lossy. | |
| Rack Stack Vibration Isolation advice I've never had much faith in ball bearings as isolation components, at least in the vertical deflection range. Amazon also sells spring based units which will do the job. You will want to dampen them a bit with some soft foam between the shelf a... | |
| Need to soundproof to help with severe ear condition. PS: Sound proofing isn't cheap, and it is a lot of work. It is also expensive if you hire someone to do it. If you hire someone, make sure they have experience in sound proofing. | |
| Need to soundproof to help with severe ear condition. What you will need to do is sound insulate all the walls of your bedroom that attach to the interior of the home. You can ignore exterior walls. First remove the sheetrock and insert solid core insulation. Some of the solid core has noise atten... |
