Back again and a big thank-you to all for the excellent advice on my previous query! I want to build some speakers for outdoors which will be driven by car stereo(Kenwood, 25watt/ch, poss. add power amp to 100watt/ch). They need to be fairly compact, such as in the range of the ones I am now...

OK, OK, I suppose I was asking for that....but here's my dilemma: I don't actually have 201's, instead I have an enclosure which I made myself based on specs that don't exist at a time when all I had was a circular saw, hammer and nails....well, maybe that's stretching it a bit, but no joke! I...

Hello all....I'm trying to find some replacement woofers for my Bose 201's....I believe they're a 6 1/2 inch fairly full range speaker. I'd like to get Bose replacements, can anyone tell me where to look, and where the best price might be? Fish Head

Hirsch - Thanks for your kind explanation.....funny, I was thinking graph paper too! I think by putting a light directly above the cart, I should be able to see if it lines up perfectly as well in terms of the perpendicular measurement to the line which extends from the center of the spindle to...

Greetings Hirsch! Thanks for your observations....I do question the alignment and have tried to research the site on how to do this with my linear tracking, Yamaha PX-3 turntable. So far, no luck....lots of info on traditional tracking, but none on the linear. I HAVE played with the VTA and find...

Thanks to JML and HIRSH - I will check out those sites and get an idea of what's out there. Any thoughts on why the new Grado Black doesn't sound even as good as the old Yamaha MC-705? I was really disappointed and thought maybe I had not properly installed it.....re-checked all the variables...

Hi all, I need a place to research the info about turntables and cartridges. I'm just getting re-acquainted with the smooth, full sound of vinyl and actually burning some of this onto cd-r from my personal collection. I find the same album sounds 10X better when I do this than the...

Nobody seems to have responded to the issue of the old Audio Technica ATH-5's I have (not HD414's). They are also very listenable and talk about comfort....WOW! Fish

Thanks, all. I will definitely give the Senns and the Grados the ear.....who knows, I just might BE broke by the time I get my REAL "cans!" Again, what a neat site and so many helpful folks. I'm glad I found you..... Fish

My thanks to you, youngjun, for your kind observations. I will try to give a listen to the Senns. Can you advise where to buy at best price, online? Website? Don't really like the harsh mids either....

Thanks for the response, joelongwood....I'm a real newbie at this but have a passion for great sound. After reading through many of the reviews posted, the V6's seem to have an edge over most others in terms of what I'm lookin for - and you can't beat the price. Seems I read a review though that...

Hello all! First post and many thanks for all the helpful info on selecting a new set of headphones. I have pulled out my old set of Koss Pro4AA and AT ATH-5 and find they are reasonably listenable, although the Koss are hugely uncomfortable (probably flatest response I've heard though) and the...
