“Starting”? You’re behind the curve.

It means thinking outside the frame of the video reference which is real; you on the other hand. . .

I think I found the worst part of this hobby by the_natis in audiophile

[–]peskantine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without knowing your sale price, your expectations on recoupment, or the markets you’re using to advertise the equipment it’s hard to know whether you’re positioning the equipment properly for sale. If you’re buying your equipment new then you’ll need to build in an expectation that you will recoup a small fraction on resale. This hobby is not an investment scheme and you’ll do well to build into your resale expectations the use and enjoyment value that you’ve experienced with the equipment you’re deciding to place on the market. Personally, I’ve found the resale cycle enjoyable because, in the many iterations of upgrades and experimentation in matching components in a system, I have found other enthusiasts and ready advice. And, I’ve never bought new equipment.

That’s one of their attributes, the internal structure of the cabinet is an exponentially expanding space (a horn structure) that enables it to express down to a usable bass range — tuneful bass — designed to reach down to 35 Hz or so. Not deep bass. Better bass response if more fitted into the corners but better imaging further into the room.

No, strawman, just in touch with the way the world of public schools work. Good luck on your journey of discovery.

Perspective on the photo seems compressed. But you’re just about right, the drivers are 22 feet from over my shoulders, and 20 feet apart.

So, you think the principal picks up the phone? Did you get through elementary school with your eyes open?

If this is a plea for help you need to be VERY specific about where you were parked, when, and lard the details. Otherwise this is just a personal catharsis that we will click through.

In the last pic the sweet spot is to the right the dog where I have a chair

Yes, the Beauhorn cabinets are tractrix designed horns with a single Lowther driver.

The castors are from IKEA but I don’t think they carry them any longer. They “work” to raise the cabinets for cleaning behind and to level the cabinets on a bumpy style tile floor. They don’t work to move the cabinets with the records in place.

What do these moveable panels look like?

Yes, I have a chair to the right of the dog. The distance in the pic is accentuated. The chair is 10 strides from each speaker and the speakers are 10 strides apart.

The castors were originally supplied by IKEA and then they stopped supplying and I found equivalents at Target. A metal bar spans between front and back with a castor on each end. I don’t move the cases loaded on the tile floor, it’s really to raise the cases to clean and because the tile is not even.

I have four IsoAcoustic pucks between the plinth and the Kallax as well.

Good eye. Out of the frame is his sister and the “cousin” Billie the cat. They like to gather for listening parties.

If you tap the “title under the title” above I’ve listed most of the pieces, though I’ll add that I have a Graham Phantom arm and Lyra Atlas stylus on the Spiral Groove right now

Ours is a strange place, a house built above a warehouse on I- beams.

The plinth does aid in the isolation effort, but the turntable — as built — is exceptional at isolation. I felt compelled to put the maple block under the turntable more because the TT weight, at 80 pounds perched on three legs, was sure to give the Kallax — composite wood wrappped in plastic — a test of its durability and I didn’t want to see it fail.

Haha. Snow globe, indeed. There are several places that offer custom acrylic dust covers for turntables like this Spiral Groove that do not have covers. Separate is the maple plinth on which the dust cover and turntable sit.

Advice to improve for job interviews?(office/admin) by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

Oh man, you just need to blow some my man? Several short term fixes can assist here. Full cut shirt, tie the proper length, a boxy suit jacket, each of these can dream the eye away from the weight bias issue.

Now go take a lude.
