| Equalization for vinyl nirvana I have 107 cartridges in my collection. Each one sounds different. Some emphasize the mids; back in the day, it was called “presence.” No amount of auxiliary EQ (not RIAA!) will give it to you if your cartridge doesn’t have it. Other cartridges wi... | |
| Blocking Ports on Ported Speakers Sealed cabinets (acoustic suspension) are known for tight bass, although bass extension is rarely as good as with ported designs (Bass Reflex). But no free lunch here: Ports require careful engineering and making good trade offs. Very easy to have... | |

| Phono Stage, Cartridge, DeGritter...which one first? I’ve been cleaning my records in the sink now since 2007. That’s when I quit using an US. Lots of really bad, piss poor advice! ^^^Unless you have more $$/€€/££/¥¥ than brains. Many in here do.Keep your P6. Upgrade your cartridge. That’ll get you ... | |

| 3D lifelike sound and impeccable measurements - mutually exclusive??? I don't understand the question. Do you want what sounds good? Or what measures good? Don't say both. Life is full of choices. Nobody gets everything they want. Nothing is ever perfect. So your choice. Which one do you want? This is where the gre... | |

| VINYL SUCKS! Garbage!Vinyl is better in every respect. Digital is full of distortion and “digital artifacts”, from all the massive levels of processing needed to convert math to an ANALOG signal/voltage. Everybody has their favorite DACs, proving that distorti... | |
