| Marantz vs. Pioneer Receivers Marantz is much more musical from my past experiences.Pioneeris somewhat more dry and analytical.I use to own a Marantz Quad 4400 Receiver,if you can find one of these snap one up.The FM Tuner with scope sounds incredible.The receiver can be strap... | |
| Reel to reel deck -Talk me in or out of buying I'm a r to r junkie and have 3 decks.I have a Teac 4010SL that has been fully restored made back in 1969,But is not tube like Albert is getting.I just love doing live recordings on my deck.The sweet sound of Analog is magic to my ears.I have a liv... | |

| will grado hum? I'm using my Grado Ref. 1.2K price range with my older VPI deck,and a Morch UP-4 Arm and have no problems,But you must shield with a high quality phono cable to minimize any of this.I have used unshilded cables here and things don't work,But I had... | |
| oracle delphi Along time ago I think Michael Percy use to have these in his audio shop as a retailer,But this was many,many years ago.He may still have some knowledge on the player. | |
| Carts that sound like a Koetsu My Grado Reference Reference the one at the 1.2K Level sounds very similar to the older Koetsu Rosewood IMO.The mid band sounds very similar to each other,and the bass if vta is right sounds a tad better on the Grado.The real strength on the older... | |
| Review: Grado Grado Reference Phono Cartridge Cartridge I'm not sure if anyone has done a review side by side.I believe I saw a review in Stereophile on the Music Maker,and it was somewhat favorable,But nothing seemed to really stand out in the review.I was just so taken back at the big sound improveme... | |
| What are good phono cables ? PAD Dominous if cost is no object. | |
| Speaker Cable-The Best of the Cheap? kIMBER 4pr is worth a listen for better hihgs and midband reproduction,But I suppose it depends on your system and your personal listening preferences. | |
| Kenwood tuner alignment Try Joseph Chow He advertizes sometimes on Audiogon and I highly recommend him.Extremely knowldegeable,and had done a Marantz Tuner for me.He has vast experience working on tuners in the industry. | |

| Tube cage help Just an additional though I had my ARC Vt-60 chrome plated at a pro plating shop for a flat $300.00 fee its drop dead picture shaving mirror perfect.Also I think you can get cages at Parts Connection for amp kits. | |
| Electrostats I use the Martin Logan Quest Z's with ARC tube Amp and CJ Tube preamp and get a great smooth sound,very transparent,non fatiguing and just simply magical together.The tube amp is utiliziing its full 4ohm taps to run the ML's to sufficent SPL Level... | |
| Which Tone Arm for Oracle Delphi + Grado Ref? I use my Morch UP-4 Arm Silver wired red dot with my Grado Ref. and get great results with it.Also you can use other arm wands with their tonearm incase you want to experiment with additional mass. | |
| Cassette Tapes..Dolby B or C? Dolby B incorporates a bit diiferent type of noise reduction then Dolby C.If I can recall on my old Marantz 4400 Receiver,Marantz would calibrate the receiver on Dolby B recording with a 400 HZ test tone.Dolby C elavates the noise band reduction u... |
