| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone The very best to hear from you personally, Pat. Hang in there, we're thinking about 'ya! | |
| Good inexpensive cables If I were in your position and I was "VERY happy" with my current cables, I know what I'd do. Stick with those cables unless the budget was in emergency condition. This even is it meant selling the shorter cable for funds to by a longer one. It ca... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone I'd like the name of that dealership for the purpose of transferring my Irish wrath upon them and saving Pat the energy. What some folks won't do to make sales. Just disgraceful, in every way. | |
| "Polyamping" A Look to the Future or Fancy Fad? Kpinneo, wow I had forgotten about this thread. I'd have keen interest in your impressions of the Orion project you build. | |
| DIY stylus-cleaning magic long I have used #9, in conjunction with a LAST stylus brush for quite some time and with satisfaction. I use two bottles, one for cleaning by putting a few drops on the LAST brush and one for "rinsing". I've even used it on quite a few styli of yore t... | |
| PowerCon Connectors Thanks, X. I know Audience think they are the cat meow, based on an e-mail exchange I had with them. I understand that their locking nature would be a good thing and that they supposedly provide a large contact area. Surprised others here don't ha... | |
| PowerCon Connectors I have not, Jeff. My DNA-225 is off to Steve McCormack for his Platinum Upgrade. I have spoken to Steve about installing a 20A service for this amp. I have Audience Power Chords (15A) presently and was intrigued as to whether going with the PowerC... | |
| PowerCon Connectors No one? | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone THAT is an inspiring post, Steve, especially when any of us should think to pity ourselves over some trivial turn of the day. Best of luck to Pat. That Irish spirit and wit is his best bet for seeing him through this ordeal. | |
| Ayre V-5x vs. McCormack DNA 225 Speaking of McCormack DNA-225 and Vandersteen, my DNA-225 just went in yesterday for Steve's Platinum Upgrades and I will be driving it through Vandersteen 5's when it gets back. Will let you know how THAT sounds! ;-) | |
| LP collection management...what do you guys do? Aceto, try divorcing her. It will cost you much more. :-) | |
| Preamp suggestions for a McCormack DNA-125? Gotta tell you that, at your price range and considering a mating with the 125, I like Quincy's suggestion of the PV-10B very much. There are other better choices, but not many better for that money. I heard a Golden Tube SEP-2 or SEP-3, I can't r... | |
| vandersteen 5 to 5a Thanks, Rex, that makes more sense to me. | |
| Ayre V-5x vs. McCormack DNA 225 John, I have had both amps, those originally posted, in my system and would choose the DNA-225 everytime. Bigtee, if I can assume he has also done this, feels differently on the same basis. So, you're right, except that it is now up to dumboat to ... | |
| vandersteen 5 to 5a The difference in the new, stock price between the 5's and 5a's is $3,300 according to the Vandy site. If the upgrade cost is $5,000-$5,700 (exclusive of any shipping cost), as I read here, it would seem a bit steep if the components are all modul... |
