Re: Stu

Today i have played at one of the least enjoyable gigs I have ever had the misfortune to be part of. The whole thing was a catalogue of disasters. I am hoping that a good night's sleep makes me feel better. Easy to say, I know, but shit happens, mate. Far better (and far more famous) musicians than...

Re: Taking the piss out of politics

One final comment on the above - As Farage is currently crowing about the apparent apology from Nat West, owners of Coutts, perhaps it's about time that we - in the spirit of " doing the right thing " - received an apology from the frog-faced fuckwit for all the lies he told about Brexit,...

Re: Taking the piss out of politics

Farage is the banker who can no longer bank... I 'love' that the tory press is whipping itself into a real froth over this, whilst far too many of our populace qualify for a food rather than a posh nobs bank. Not entirely the most self aware people on the planet. One of those rare cases where a pri...

Re: Jokes & Funnies

I wish I could see the images in Slinger's posts, but all I get is the word "image" . . . If you have in any way restricted Facebook that is what happens. I use container tabs in Firefox which prevent Facebook from seeing my internet activity. I usually copy the image link and open it in ...

Would moving all the turntables away from the speakers be an option?
And moving the pre and power amps too. With a long speaker cable run?
I agree.
If you have to have long cables they should be the ones carrying the highest level signals.

Re: Equipment placement v cable length

Being lucky to have several turntables I have usually only ever run one at a time for space reasons. Recently I placed another on the side wall away from the main area necessitating a long cable run to the phono stage- probably 5 meters of coaxial cable. It sounds ok I have a spare phono stage What...

Re: Phono stage tingle

I occasionally get that from a MacBook, it isn't uncommon and it is probably you discharging through the case.

Re: Goodman's Magnum K series MEGA collection... Mod advice

DQ, what I would do is recap and rewire as Riat suggests and see what they sound like. As you have more speakers you could mod another pair and compare pre and post mod versions.
