FirstWatt J2 on its way
I continue to marvel how great the J2 sounds. Jazz, Metal, Classical, even electronic music (maybe not as snappy for electronic...but close enough). I was playing 24/96 of Led Zeppelin 1 and was really cranking the amp (89 on BHK volume meter), th... 
New Bluesound Node – First Impressions
I wished the Node would pass a dsd signal onto a dac thru usb 
Pass X150.5 or Odyssey Stratos monos?
I read on a forum that If Odyssey placed a giant colorful $5 VU meter on its amps, they could raise the price by a significant amount. When I shop for an amp again, Odyssey will be on my list. I've never heard anything but positive things about th... 
Class A amplifiers
I know there are many FirstWatt amps, class A, that have been running for many years without needing service. My J2 is only 2 years old, I am thinking I'm good for at least 10 years without a check up.  
Tonearm for Technics 1200GR
I'd be curious (i know they are two different levels of turntables) how much better the VPI Anniversary DD TT would sound next to the 1200GR/G if cartridge/phono pre, etc were the same. The VPI is super nice, however, a huge difference in price 
Technics 1200 MK2 vs Technics SL-1210GR
I have a GR and thought I would upgrade in a couple of years. I have no desire to upgrade. In my opinion, higher end cartridges and phono pre would be a logical step before even thinking about upgrading the table itself.  
Technics moving all turntable production to Malaysia
I wonder if the Luxmans are still made in Japan? 
Clear vinyl vs. regular black vinyl
If MoFi one steps were clear, you would see 80% reduction in quality complaints on the forums outside audible defects and warps. 
Technics moving all turntable production to Malaysia
Every forum has trolls. Just don’t engage. It’s verified that the tables are no longer in Japan.  Thanks for the info. I was thinking about upgrading my GR to a G. However, as a former manufacturing manager, I’ll wait a while so the new facility c... 
Beatles Vinyl Mono Box..do you have one?
correct..That is why I never purchased. 
Why No Love For Peachtree Audio?
Has Peachtree updated any products in the last 10 years? 
PRIMALUNA OR ROGUE AUDIO
You can pretty much throw any tube at PL if I understand correctly. If you switch speakers, you can fine tune the sound by switching tubes.  
Beatles Vinyl Mono Box..do you have one?
I am loving the mono vinyl box. I like the vinyl version more than the mono CD box that I also own. However, the MONO CD box is really, really good. For stereo I have both the older Blue Box and the 16/44 2009 USB stick. I really see no need, outs...
