About a month ago I was having problems with my very old Jolida 202. Thanks to advice I got here, I was able to find the problem and decided it was more than the old amp was worth to repair so I bought a new PrimaLuna Dialogue II. Got it and began to break it in. After about 20 hours I noted the hard edge I had in the highs when in single end was not getting better. Push pull worked ok so again I asked a dumb question and another poster pointed to a speaker compatability problem with my old Maggies.

I just bought a pair of M Audio BX5a's and these baby's are LOUD. Problem is theres no good way of turning them down manually and I dont have a volume knob on my keyboard.

Does anyone know if there are any programs that can simply set keyboard shortcuts to control the master computer volume

I loved reading the Review of the Dunlavy Speakers in the online edition. I am lucky enough to own a pair of Dunlavy SM-1s, paired w/ ARC equipment. This is a slice of audio heaven!! Thanks for the review. I found it interesting that The reviewer seemed to have doubts as to the the validity of scientific measurements as applied to speakers. Then JA said these speakers measured as good as any he had seen in certain areas. JA makes the statement that this is one heck of a speaker,and the reviewer goes on to buy the pair he reviewed. Things that make you go hummm?

I just bought a pair of Snell A's of E-bay. They are serial number 7 and 8. I think they are prototypes. They are flat black and the grills life straight up to come off. They also don't say Snell and all the labeling is stickers with type writing on them. Oh, and the wire to the bass is a 1/4 inch guitar plug to an RCA!

What I can't believe is the sound..............FANTASTIC!

Anyone know anything about early Snell speakers? Are they collectors items?

Hola,

Question: In a unipivot tonearm, what do you call the deviation from the "vertical plane" that can occur with cartridge motion?

Is it 'rotational azimuth?'

'Vertical azimuth?'

This seems to be a phenomenon much at the heart of unipivot performance, but I'm blocking on vocabulary.

Did that even make sense?

I'm trying to put a name on the ability of the cartridge to rotate around an axis 'described' by the tonearm itself.

The reason I ask is that I was just playing with a Well Tempered arm, and it does this like crazy!

They claim that using electrically insulating materials as cable risers actually causes problems.
