Aesthetically it's awful but what is the purpose of dip by design?

My 1984 LP12 had the original mdf armboard but it bent after decades of supporting the weight of the Ittok so the azimuth was way out. The problem with the early steel kite shaped sub chassis is that the arm is completely supported on the end of the armboard dangling in mid air! Also, the...

There is no argument that many of the provisions in this bill are a good thing. However, the one aspect which does concern me is succinctly stated in this article relating to JK Rowling. https://www.holyrood.com/news/view,jk-rowling-challenges-police-to-arrest-me-over-hate-crime-law It's the...

A single source is just an individual making the report using the online form here: https://www.scotland.police.uk/secureforms/c3/ In all probability the evidence will be a link to some statement on social media which contravenes the Act Police Scotland then assess the validity of the complaint...

There's a quite informative thread on DIYaudio https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/celestion-ditton-25-crossovers.214488/ Post #12 shows the crossover diagram. Ignore the inductor values - they are all wrong as they were never measured! I recapped my 44's a few years ago and they sound...

Glad to hear your comment re the 540ML. I bought one a few months ago after agonising for ages. Don't buy a cart very often. It's a real gamble and you can spend a fortune without finding the right one. The 540 tracks very well after very careful set up, and completely cured the slight sibilance...

Kind of agree about LP12 but where to get a replacement bearing other than Carousel or second hand original?

I'm confused by this thread. My speakers (Ditton 44's) just produce a wall of sound which extends beyond either side of them (up and down as well). Tow in or tow out, makes very little difference. The bass was fine tuned by moving them out a little bit from the back wall to eliminate a slight...

OK I understand now. Thanks.

I've seen the ALWSR mentioned in a few threads but can't find a link to what it actually is. I'm assuming it's a super reg like Avondale TPR4. But then you mentioned other super regs and gyrators fitted inside the 72 so I'm now confused. Could you please elaborate a bit for the record. Thanks G

Tidal connect only works on some streamers. I doesn't work on windows or apple pc, which is a real shame.

Got an email from Tidal today. " Starting April 10, 2024, you will now get access to our music library in full lossless, HiRes FLAC, and Dolby Atmos sound for the same price you pay today of £10.99/month. This is because we’re making it easier for everyone to enjoy best-in-class sound...

Ditto in UK but £10.99 pm. :(
