Last night five of us visited Alex for a listening session. Alex's system sounded great and so did all the LPs. Well, except for one :-). It was especially...
Yes, a fun evening - HEY WE FORGOT TO TAKE PICS!! Damn... If you want to learn about vinyl, pressings etc, the best place is the phonogram email list - it is...
But Aleks - what about the bricks?!? How much difference did they actually make? Interesting stuff, these tweaks. Some work and some don't, so please don't...
Just a quick update on the ME test. I have been using the magic eraser for about a week now and it seems to work quite well. I use the method set out in the...
These magicbricks are made by VPI (not sure if they still make them).They work best with tube amps, and you place them on top of the transformers. We tested...
Thanks for that, Aleks. I had bought some magic "myrtlewood" blocks from a fellow on audiogon, but I found that they made no difference that I could discern. I...
I have not heard of the myrtlewood blocks, these are VPI, and they weigh about 5lbs (in a very small package!!). They seem to contain some kind of metal that...
I would like to organize a group trip to vinyl shops around Toronto some time before December. The way that this could possibly work is as follows: 0) We...
Hey Aleks, Count me in! Unfortunately I would be coming in on the GO train and my car is only a 2 door anyway! The original Toronto Phonogram Convention did...
Count me in! Any idea what stores you are planning on visiting? I'd definitely suggest including "Discovery Music" in the east end. There is also another...
I have been to Discovery and I really like it... One of the things that we need to do is put together a list of all the stores that we want to visit... Then ...
I remember the name of the other store now: In The Groove http://www.inthegrooverecords.com/ I also stumbled into this okay looking record store review site: ...
Love to join the safari. Am vehicularly challenged, so can't help there. But so many shops are in the same neighbourhood that we shouldn't have a problem being...
I do want to make it happen on a Saturday also - preferably earlier in the day (meet up at 10am at the latest - somewhere by a downtown subway station).......
To get them to work properly, I had to loop them. After looping them, they did work for me insofar as the illusion did deceive me. As to their provenance, I...
Here are some replies I received from Audio Asylum-Tubes: 1) In Reply to: RE: Problem inserting 12XA7EG tube into C-J MV55 amp posted by infotrad on October...
It seems a shame that once your are finished setting everything up you don't use it again. I would be prepared to pay your trip in and run your machine in my...
If you have an SACD player, you might want to check out the batch of, here we go again, remastered (in SACD/CD format )1967-1974 Moody Blues albums in...
I was able to solve the problem with inserting the gold-plated tubes into the C-J MV55 amp. I called the retailer here in Montreal, but they said to avoid...
12AX7 is actually the type type I had in before (and the reference printed on the MV55 amp, beside the tube socket. I have two replacement sets of older...
Any Saturday works for me. I can take 6 in my van (5 in comfort, 6 if you don't mind a bit of crowding) and enough space to carry vinyl cargo. Just let me know...
Looks like yahoogroups had a little burp.... I released a bunch of "stuck" messages on the list... This happens every once in a while, I don't know why... ...
Hi there, I have acquired an inexpensive interconnect, that is working out really well with my system. It is between my tonearm and my phono stage. It is 1m...
Hi Jason, I have not heard any of the other equipment they carry. The 10watt integrated looks interesting (I believe that it retails cheap too - $1700CDN??),...
Damn, I wish I had 900 clams to just throw on vinyl, and still live after my wife sees the bill... http://tinyurl.com/2euu2r Regards, a.m. [Non-text portions...
