that's interesting from a different perspective: Earth rotation. in theory the equator goes way faster than, lets say, Alaska. the 'speed' DIFFERENCE can be 600mph between countries, even within America. think about it. do you feel a speed difference between 30mph and 100mph when driving a car?

Everyone likes meters. No McIntosh owner would be happy without those blue meters Yamaha requires about $3000 for an amplifier with meters.Back in the late 70s. I had a pioneer SX 780. It had 3 meters,one of which was a center channel tuning meter that receiver cost about $200. I am attaching a...

Robinson has been around for years as a reviewer. These 80 LB speakers are $499 each. Interesting that Klipsch is actually involved in the US distribution since they compete with the $5,000 Forte model.........

If this is half true it’s pretty sad how little you are getting for $4000.

At age 73 I am fairly well acquainted with most things audio_One the exceptions is the new hybrid amps. I was interested in a first taste of the tube sound. This Vincent unit caught my eye. They have a track record vs the swarm of no name Asian models. Even if this not the best bang for the...

This one is popping up all over Facebook https://www.thewhitegoodss.com/Signature-12-%7C-Audiophile-Turntable-p9462696.html

For example Yamaha Went from model 1060 to model 1070 then model 1080.Usually they come out with their models in may. This year there was no 1090. I'm wondering if they skipped the model year due to covid?

I am among those here recently interested in the small class D amps that have proliferated on the internet. It's become sort of a side hobby for many. I can't help but notice the screaming bargains in car audio. My guess is that since most newer cars have built in LCD screens, owners are not...

Years ago they were the the subject of heated debate on the forums. They largely disappeared, but I see they are still there. The prices look surprisingly low considering the materials and name brand drivers....just wonder how good they are? http://www.norh.com/Norh_Loudspeakers/Products.html

Interesting experiment and they intend to spend some time and money to prefect. If you don't have headphones on their list, they will send you a test kit. I chose to use Apple ear buds and chose the Audio Technica 40s on their list which sound pretty realistic. It's a guess and you can...

Will be interesting now that I recognize some of your names. Feel free to be brief and just list present....mine is: 1970-1978….70% vinyl and 30% FM 1978-1988….60% Vinyl, 30% Cassette and 10% FM 1988-2005 almost 100% CD Present ….60% Streaming, 20% CD and 20% Vinyl again (just in last year)

Mainly surprised at how much hand labor involved. I would think it would be largely robotic by now. Surprised the drivers don't cost more in many cases.....

Interesting old film showing audio back then......https://twitter.com/twitter/statuses/852128571120381954

New bright micro led lights are everywhere, including $5 greeting cards. Would be visually pleasing to have bright lights trained on needle to watch it trace the grooves. Would also be practical to enable you to see fuzz build up on stylus. Could be mounted on either head shell or cartridge...

I recently got back into vinyl. The next step is looking at used records. It becomes obvious that most were ravaged and played on horrible equipment and not maintained. Its obvious that even the cheap turntables shown here would be better than 98% of the ones in use during the Golden Age of...

I have a couple of decent systems....(Paradigm, B & W with pre-pros)....bought this as a nostalgia piece for my office as I haven't played vinyl in 35 years. Dug out old stacked records from hot Florida garage that were stacked in piles (not good). But they are all fine. The speakers are Klipsch...
