    Rotel RP-1000 what to do question.

    No, what I meant was all that stuff that happened occurred like a chain collision accident, one thing happened, then another then another, all of which happened within about 4 days of each other. The humming could be a capacitor gone bad which might be why it suddenly happened? Then a couple...

    Rotel RP-1000 what to do question.

    I have a Rotel RP-1000 that fell apart rather rapidly couple of weeks ago. It has a power hum, the tone arm stopped returning automatically at the end of a record, and because it didn't return it ruined the stylus on an Empire TC400, and then the belt either came off or broke. The estimated...

    Vinyl records outsell CDs for first time in decades

    Some musicians are recording their masters in BOTH, digital and analog at the same time, so it's not a dream. And some are now even skipping recording their masters onto digital and doing only analog, these bands that are doing strictly analog say it's because it makes their music honest, with...

    Turntable Recommendation ~ $10K

    For those that didn't agree with me, that's fine, but you're also the type who probably subscribes to $2,000 a foot speaker cable when it has been proven that a person with educated ears could not tell the difference when a $1 a foot oxygen free copper cable was used. It's psychobabble. But I...

    Turntable Recommendation ~ $10K

    None, the only difference you will hear is from the carts you use, and you already have good one, but different carts do sound better depending on the type of music you're playing, a lot of people have 5 or more carts because what cart will sound great with classical won't sound good with...

    Turntable Recommendation ~ $10K

    You can spend that money if you want, it's your money, but you won't hear a difference from your old one.

    If tape is so good why does it record so poorly?

    I was going to buy a used Akai reel-to-reel for $199 supposedly restored after a friend of mine couldn't find his old machine he was going to give it to me because he hasn't used it in 40 years, but after looking into it a lot I decided against it. First off, the parts for reel-to-reel machines...

    Those, or any other power cables similar, are a huge ripoff! Electricity is electricity, you cannot alter the sound with a power cord unless that power cord is a very small gauge and it cannot handle a high current amp, which in that case the reason the sound will start to go bad will be due...

    Do you use cables to 'tune' the sonics of your system?

    "old" guy in my text meant when the hearing starts to degrade significantly enough where sensitivity of being able to hear subtle differences in sound begins, in my text that was meant to be around 45 to 50. (I'm 66 years old, so I'm in this class of "old" guy). When I said rich old guys...

    Do you use cables to 'tune' the sonics of your system?

    No, that puts speaker cables into the realm of psychosomatic problems. People can only perceive in their imagination that a $1.45 a foot speaker cables is inferior to $1,200 a foot speaker cables because after all, they spent a lot of money thus it works...no it doesn't, it only effects sound...
