| Toslink or coax? My tests always came out in favor of the coax over Toslink.As for brand, Blue Jeans is excellent and VERY inexpensive. About $15.50 for a nine foot run, complete with terminations. | |
| Please help me I am in trouble with my new table.. I don't guess you live close enough for me to repair the problem? If no, anyone with a little repair experience can reattach the cartridge clip. You need a fine point solder iron and a bit of patience :^).You have NOT permanently damaged anything ... | |
| Problem in MAC MC240 I am not an expert but would venture a guess that either the bias or heater voltage is way out of specification, otherwise the tube would not be glowing as you describe.Any chance the bias is set wrong? Do you know how to check for this?Depending ... | |
| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? That's what I love about you Ralph, an excellent designer and state of the art guy that LOVES music. Not many around like you, thanks for the many music software comments over the last few days. | |
| Bladelius Freja versus Marantz SA11 Dracule1, do you know who the US distributor is, or is it being handled via Europe? | |
| nice turntable that plays 78s Lousyreeds1,My comments are posted at the Lenco thread, finding it may be difficult as it is now over 2000 posts. Basically, the Lenco is a very capable turntable and enormous fun to build and listen to. I found mine at EBAY for less than $100.00.... | |
| Bladelius Freja versus Marantz SA11 Is the Bladelius being brought into the USA now? I know Mikael Bladelius and deeply respect his designs. Last I heard, they were available only in the European market. | |
| nice turntable that plays 78s Since many 78 RPM records are not actually 78 RPM, the Lenco thread here at Audiogon offer an opportunity to build a very inexpensive turntable that plays fours speeds and offers the operator the ability to infinitely vary each of those speeds.htt... | |
| Low priced giant killers I heard the Silverline 60 from Kirksaeter at CES two years ago and was impressed by their lack of distortion, low bass output and huge soundstage, particularly considering their tiny size. Suggested retail is $849.00 and many times I wish I had ta... | |
| BAT vs. Quicksilver Although both are excellent products, I would probably choose the Quicksilver because of it's ability to accept a wide range of tubes. The BAT VK-60 is capable of running ONLY the 6C33C output tube (which I dislike) and the Quicksilver is capable ... | |
| Has anybody Cryo'd their complete amp-results? Personally I would not do it. Too many parts that might be damaged by the super low temperature. Plus, my personal experience with cryo treating transformers, although eventuality positive, means waiting FOREVER to achieve complete break in.You co... | |
| Review: Walker Audio Proscenium Gold Signature Turntable Hey guys, I'm not J. Gordon Holt, I promise :^). The hold up is making sure the crossover is right before putting it into my system.The guy building my crossover called Tuesday and told me the circuit needed a very high transconductance 9 pin mini... | |
| Aesthetix IO mark 2-which upgrade first? In my opinion the Signature is a more important upgrade sonically than the second supply. | |
| Any Warp correction LP services available ? G_m_c, that might work. I remember as a child leaving a record in the back of my fathers car for an afternoon. It looked like wavy potato chip when I retrieved it. | |
| How many audiophiles to screw in a light bulb? B.I.zeebub, what the devil are you doing here ? One thing I always wondered about, what amp and preamp do you prefer?One of my friends guessed BAT, because it goes like a BAT out of hell. Another said CAT because it runs like a scorched CAT.My gue... |
