  1. Welcome. Both myself and DCL (David) are up the hill from you in Ashe-vegas
  2. Hands down the best speakers I own (or have owned) for me are the Maggies. Currenty being test driven by an inexpensive Sanyo intergrated
  3. Thank You. I built them into the house. Not sure I can ever answer the which sounds better, still in testing I will say that after I rebuilt the cross overs and dampened the Klipsch it was a huge improvement. Danny Ritchie from GR research's design and parts.
  4. Previous residents. X-overs rebuilt on the Klipsch based on NRD.
  5. 1/4-20 threads FYI. Temp mount testing them out in this location.
  6. Yes the risers are money well spent IMO, I would buy again for another set. Robert from Magnarisers is a nice guys and takes a lot of pride in his product which shows I got my LRS pre covid, but they still took a while. As far as break in I cant not say I have heard much difference from when I have them until now, except for the risers changing things up a bit (for the better). I have some future experiments / designs I want to try with Maggies: Mounting them to the wall, with the ability to rotate in 3 axis to suit my odd room and space
  7. LRS and yes on Magnarisers. The risers are great, sonic improvement and gets the speakers off the floor. Maggies are great, except I have to move them out and around to listen to them then back agains the wall.
  8. Looking for the thread size and pitch for a pair of CRM2's I picked up and playing around with. Both the back and bottom are the same I think. I find no specs or drawings online I have a thread gage at the office, but working on a temp stand this weekend at home. Could be 1/4-20 or M6 These put out a lot of sound in a small package Thanks Paul
  9. If I recall, what I saw under the microscope, the Spin Clean did excellent. Now that is for new vinyl, which I clean before play and mildly dirty vinyl. I'd still tip to US for the nasty stuff. But that is only my opinion
  10. I have several threads on DIY US cleaners as well as some on different cleaning methods before and after under a microscope. Unable to locate those threads right now bc I am at work. Here is the video of mine in action. Works quite well IMO and with some DIY its pretty cheap to build. I know there are several other DIY versions on this BB
  11. Oh I forgot my thick fleece robe
  12. I agree with Ray. I did do the microscope test on the SC and it performed quite well. If I recall correctly almost enough for me to not use the DIY ultrasonic setup. Actually, I clean with the US rig first, then use my SC as a rinse then air dry. My biggest issue currently is static, which will soon improve. Carpet, wool socks and me shuffling my feet added to cold temps can send blue flames out my fingertips. It is now common practice for me to discharge before I touch my equipment LOL
