| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thank you Nandric. I also read an improvement was had, with a boron cantilever , but I am liking the IQ3 with it's titanium cantilever . The IQ3 is very controlled at 47k. Those that believe a cartridge cannot be over dampened need to listen to th... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Siddh, if you look at Jack Robert's review on Daago of the Ultimates he answers your question directly, and his observations seem right in line with what you are saying. Good luck! | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Siddh, your question was not adressed to me ,but others have made the same complaint. I think the High Fidelity cables are neutral, and clean up the soundstage in a natural way, but other may see this as less body, and less mid bass. I think it is... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I finally got around to listening to my newest mm/mi. The Audio Note IQ3. The IQ3 is a very balanced cartridge. It has good detail without the rising high end. It is based on a Goldring cartridge, modified to Audio Notes spec. It has a Gyger 1 sty... | |
| Stereo power amp for $10k I like Melbguy1's idea of a very good integrated, where you can bypass the integrated pre when watching movies, and switch back to the integrated pre for 2 channel. Best of both worlds. | |
| Does the Transport make a significant difference Since it apears you play CD's, I also would try the PS Audio transport and use the is2 connection, as Stevechamp suggested. I purchased one for under $1500, and am happy using it with a Yamamoto dac( thanks charles1dad)I have not tried computer au... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Randy Brecker has been on some good records lately. Maybe he can play a little.O-10, I am a big fan of Mrs. Allyson. Great Call! Try Stacy Kent. There are a lot of really good current players playing Jazz. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I have a little confession. I had been needing a longer phono cable for weeks, and have not decided on what to buy, but in the meantime I was listening to digital through a Yamamota Dac and a PS Audio Transport. I thought I had finally found a dig... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Agree with everyone on the Victor x-1. A sweet little cart. Thanks as always, for the heads up on the replacement styli. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Gfroman, it's impossible to tell which way would work best for you, but I would agree with the others on the power cord. You can move it around in your system. I started, with the ultimate, on the power conditioner, and the effect, though muted wa... | |
| UP-OCC solid core copper for speaker cable Another very interesting company is Zenwave.Due to a move and needing a longer run than my normal Teresonic cables, I bought enough of the 12 gauge Neotech cables for four long runs. Sounds very open. Bass is not quite as good as the Teresonic, an... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Great music O-10. Great ringside memories! Thanks!Alexatpos, seeing Pat Martino live has got to be great! Hopefully he is in good health. The last time I saw Johnny Winter he was having a bad night, and was led on stage. Not the way you want to re... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm, we discussed the Pickering Tl-4s on page 178. Don't you remember? ;)Don really liked his. If he is around maybe he will give an update. I also purchased one. The p- mount version. I wasted my tonearm wire clips, squeezing them down. I rememb... | |
