| Whats on your turntable tonight? Reubent!I didn’t think Romeo Void was issued on LP. Love warm in your coat, but I only have the CD.Also, I have a few C. Simon SACDs on my wish list. Maybe I’ll save some money and search out some vinyl. The problem is that my 2 CS LPs are pretty ... | |
| Cartridge recommendations @sunnyjim Please don't hold the sanctimonious, self-promoting preachings of some put you off of this fine forum. I certainly interpreted your post as a request for information. @tablejockey & @oleschool, I too looked at the ART-9 before I bo... | |
| Cartridge recommendations Maybe a Denon DL-301 would be a closer sound to the Shelter than the 103. | |
| Last CD player? I have my eye set on an Esoteric DV-50. My system is a 100 WPC Rotel receiver, which I think sounds wonderful with my Canton Ergo floorstanders. None of my cables cost more than $70. My question is should I expect to be able to hear a significant ... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? How about a relative way of looking at it such as ’equal to the amount spent on speakers’ or ’1.5 x amp + pre’?I just did a quick calculation: I spent 66% more on my analog front end than on my speakers. In fact the analog front end was almost e... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? @mmporsche Let me make a proposition. I will gladly spend day after day auditioning TT/TA/pre/cartridge combinations until I find THE one that resonates with heaven. I will bring it to you and if you allow me, set it up. (I have such fun doing th... | |
| Long lost songs I haven't found Gary White performing his own composition, "Long Long Time"; but I did get a version by Melanie. It's on her Silver Anniversary double CD and it is a nice interpretation.I'll still hunt for Gary. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Just finished cleaning my old copy of CS&N. Thought I'd give it a listen after so many years. I wonder if I wore it out in my teens. Suite Judy Blue Eyes! | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? I have to laugh when someone writes that a media is dead. I don't give a rat's a$$. I have over 100 LPs, 80 CDs, a few SACDs, DVD-As and HDCDs. I am not going to put them in the trash no matter what. I got a better TT and cartridge last year. I en... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? @mmporsche You seem to know what you are doing and how to do it.To answer your original question, although I don't know why anyone else's opinion should even matter, I couldn't hold my head up if I couldn't complete the task with $15,000. Much les... | |
| Downsizing Tekton Mini Lores? | |
| Looking for SACD player............ Is there any experience or comparison with the Arcam DV137 or DV139? | |
| Help, my system sounds lifeless! Bump on the Vandersteen Treos. I heard a pair of Treo CTs with a Belles Aria at Audio Connection in Verona NJ. Very, very, nice in a space more compromised than yours. They are good people, too. | |
| High Quality Universal Player?? 2 things:So now that the Oppo BDPxxx supply is being cut off and the UDP line is coming out, what effect do you predict on the price of used BDPs>And regarding my previous 103/105; MCintosh/Yamaha post, what I was trying to get at is would I be... | |
| ...a second listen @atmasphere Interesting take on felt mats, since Linn ships them with their tables. Since no mat is not an option with the Basik, I chose a cork blend. That was before I started spending stupid money on my addiction.On my Oracle I use the original... |
