| Audio Technica AT 1005 ii or Fidelity Research FR54? Thanks guys. It looks like I'm getting ok alignment with my cartridge by mounting it pretty near the end of the head shell and tilting it slightly. (at least that what my alignment protractor is telling me). I very well may just go ahead and ge... | |
| Question about loading with an SUT @mulveling I'm intrigued about the piccolo zero. The Denon has a 14ohm internal impedance and the Apheta has a 10ohm internal impedance. Is that low enough to work well with a transimpedance head amp? The Hagerman does look like an absolute ste... | |
| Question about loading with an SUT @chipcalzone , I'm using a Declare Z3 phonostage. Thanks for all your responses. @atmasphere , this procedure is beyond my capabilities and leads me to consider a head amp. In fact, many of the responses seem to be leading me in that direction. ... | |
| Needing DAC Advice Not a DAC recommendation but since you mention you like the idea of less is more, straight wire concept, have you considered an LDR passive preamp? I have one from stereo coffee that I use with my Pass XA30.5 and I love it. I was previously usin... | |
| Tale of two turntables thanks guys. I think I'm gonna take the plunge and try modding my denon. There's a lot to like and I can only imagine it will get better. @lewm thanks for the recommendation of the headshell, I think I'll try it! | |
| Tale of two turntables I've tried the Apheta on the Lenco. It sounds good but I think it's better with the Rega arm. I'm pretty happy with leaving the Apheta on the P3. I realize it's kind of a mismatch in terms of having such a high end cart on such a lowly table bu... | |
| exploring DACs I think $2,500 is the upper limit of my budget. Used would be best, though I am considering the ANK kit | |
| recommend 6L6 tubes for preamp Thanks guys! I'm gonna take a look at those Mazdas | |

| Interesting experience with two very different speaker designs @pfiche and @arafiq I think you are both right. arafiq, I am definitely a beginner hobbyist and I was genuinely shocked that the speakers I made sounded as good as they do. The other OB designs I made, though promising, had serious flaws. I wou... | |
| Interesting experience with two very different speaker designs @pficheYes, that was my general assessment of the W8 Eminence 15 combo! Great for drums guitar and vocals. Bass energy could get a bit boomy even after I put them on spikes. I agree about the dryness. Its not the meatiest of midranges though i... | |
| Small green computer sonic transport i5 I've had mine for 5 months now. Great purchase. Much more stable and better sound quality than using my iMac as a roon core. I also use it with a uRendu |
