    Bob Ludwig on Mastering Vinyl

    I've been curious about this guy for some time as his studio is nearby, and he has been often sighted by High-End periodicals due to some of the equipment he uses as well. Found this segment this A.M. and is seems interesting to me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_WRV0vS ... re=related Here's...

    Tube microphonics

    Something odd happened with the Sovtek 12AX7LPS. I can hear some odd noise coming through headphones as I move my hand closer to the tube.hum. Also if I touch the unit. (Bellari). If I lightly touch the plastic volume knobs, I get a funny squeaking sound like the skin rubbing plastic is...

    Nitty Gritty

    Along with my daydreaming about all this nice TT's, carts and preamp, I get to thinking about cleaning. I've seen plenty of suggestions that some people are satisfied with when it comes to cleaning records. There are preferences and likes/disliked here and across the net. But one thing that...

    Deck speed too fast

    Ever had a deck that played tapes too fast? I was just firing up my ctf-9191, and it's way off. The old recording sounds funny, really fast sounding. I just tried making a new recording and the speed seems fine. So I'm guessing the speed change is affecting both play and record so I'm not...

    Larry

    I've purchased a Bellari tube phono preamp & made a gear trade. Larry was great to deal with and more then accommodating. Larry has sent me things to try too and he is always very giving! It's been a pleasure doing business with him and discussing all kinds of topics here. Cheers

    Magnum Dynalab

    I bought a MD FM antenna about 2 yrs ago and never opened it. I was going to put it up on the roof but the shipment was too late and my landlord had already returned the lift he rented. And my Pioneer tuner never got fixed so... Anyone ever tried one?

    Rotation

    I haven't had the dough to make any new equipment purchases in some time (got the last payment out for the 3rd set of braces tho -YES!), but I have rotated a few things that I already own. Rather then attempting quick A/B listening, I have left different equipment that I have in rotation for...

    Power Transistors

    I think the PS Audio I have uses the same devices as the big PL's. Those hard to come by these days? Seems discontinued and I see working pulls out there. Are you substituting?

    I think its interesting that the term "bread boards" in electronics actually came from the early days when things actually got built on.... Bread boards.

    Looking for an old PL ad.

    I saw a William Shatner Phase Linear magazine ad some time ago and still I can't find it. I believe it featured a preamp. Anyone seen it?

    My YouTube video playing a John McCormick song from about 100 yrs ago on the victrola was flagged as copyrighted content. I find it odd, but i suppose the right could be there. YouTube says no worries, but an add could show up etc. Discuss
