| DC, AC,, battery, asynchronous? I am not sure what exactly you are trying to achieve. Though judging by your questions, you are a good candidate for really good table. You did not specify your target price range, but if I understand it from your examples, I would suggest you con... | |
| Upgrade Accuphase DP75v to Linn CD12 ? IMHO (not to insult happy owners) I don't consider this an upgrade. If you are ready to spend serious money, you should probably be better off with something really serious (Museatex, dCS, et cetera). | |
| Any DAC better than the MF A324 Upsampler? Rooze,One thing to try would be to get a used Bitstream DAC and send it to John Wright for his latest modifications. You will be very well within your price range and have the sound that will beat most SACD players. | |
| Transport ? - Mod a Sony 7700 or go another route Audioengr,I am feeding external clock into all my digital components, so I disconnect internal clock completely. I also use only BNC for data connection, thus impedance is first thing I adjust. I did make few changes to path, though I'm sure somet... | |
| Transport ? - Mod a Sony 7700 or go another route I did pretty much everything possible to my former 7700. If I was paying someone else to do this it would probably cost me well over thousand (I invested about $450 in parts alone). By the end I had a decent transport, but nothing outstanding.Ende... | |
| Any DAC better than the MF A324 Upsampler? Any DAC better than the MF A324 Upsampler... pun intended.No offence to A324 owners, of course I am talking about comparable units.In my opinion, MF's approach to digital is flawed in its concept. I have yet to hear their digital component with na... | |
| balanced power supplies: group purchase of iso...? Jim,Well built tranformer should be able to take some DC without buzzing.Alex. | |
| Setting up RB 300? "Why not?" For some reason I don't trust DC motors in newer TTs. Hope I'm wrong. | |
| balanced power supplies: group purchase of iso...? Jgreene,I am not done yet with my experiments. It takes time to put it together, do some measurements and listen to actual changes, which sometimes are not immediately noticeable. Besides, with AC season one day can be very different from another.... | |
| balanced power supplies: group purchase of iso...? Jgreene,I've been playing with power for some time now. First, I tried off-the-shelf products (RGPC, Equi=tech, etc) then I realized that I am paying for someone else's experiments and started doing most myself. Last few transformers that were cus... | |
| Xindak SCD-2 Mods Davimack,"The sound is incredible" - why do you want to modify it then? | |
| Setting up RB 300? "I left the turntable running for the first two days continuously." I am not sure this is a good idea. | |
| B&K Phono10 with digi out? I'm afraid this was a typo, Phono 10 actually outputs 44.1/16. I used to have one. | |
| mono or stereo cartridge when playing mono Lps?? I cannot imagine why stereo cart would be damaged by playing mono recording. Dedicated mono cart should sound better though due to less surface noise. | |
| Is the Dynavector DV 10x5 as good as they Say? Dogscanskate,I hear what you are saying, but to be honest with you - I am not sure I am obligated to support the dealer. I did use local dealers few times, but in my opinion extra 100-200% expense is not worth it.Good luck.Alex. |
