Help. Wife says Teres 340 Is too bright.
Sanhar, A koetsu would make a nice present for her wouldn't it?I'll try to address some of the suggestions. First, it is all the albums that have a tendency towards brightness in my wife's opinion. Listening fatigue sets in for her after a few alb...

One more thing in the equation is that I play this quite a bit louder than the Scoutmaster because I can. I think this is part of the problem 
Help. Wife says Teres 340 Is too bright.
maybe I didn't make myself clear, so i'll try to cover some questions. First, the new components are the Teres and the Origin Live arm. The Benz was on the scoutmaster and was brought over to the Teres.The Scoutmaster sounded very good but there w... 
Help. Wife says Teres 340 Is too bright.
ThanksI hadn't thought about the silver ic's. However the arm is hard wired, though I don't know what the make up is. I will find out though and try replacing the rest of the ic's in the analog chain.BTW, I like the "tell her to get her own TT". H...

Pryso, I thought it was 22 because I remember thinking at the time that it was a weird number. My mistake. Thanks for the clarification.

I bought a 730 in 1979 and still have it today although not in use now. I bought a Luxman receiver back in the late 80's thinking I was upgrading. that was a poor choice. Though the Lux got great reviews and sounded great in the showroom, it sound...

I'm right across the mountain from you in Kingsport, TN Yeah, I'm 5 yrs late now and you have probably moved by now. I am an analog junkie who enjoys music, meeting others and learning

I am in Kingsport which is about 1 1/2 hrs away from Knoxville. I'd love to get together with other audiophools in the area. I can host some sessions and drive to others. Give me a shout out 
Best Phono stage for my system - from my list
The Wright is hard to beat though you'll need a step up Tranny for LOMC. Ear gats a lot of nods also but from my understanding, the Wright bests it. i have no experience with the EAR but i do own a wright WPP 100. It's not going anywhere for a whi... 
Benz Micro LP S vs Air Tight PC-1 w/ files
DeanIf I were to listen to your samples on my stereo I would have to use both a cdr and cdp in order to do so. As i said previously, i have little doubt that this practice is fine in a closed system and probably preferable to changing carts and tr... 
Benz Micro LP S vs Air Tight PC-1 w/ files
Dgad & Dean. Thanks for the responses. I have never known where this sampling of carts began & didn't know of Fremer's part in it. DeanI can understand where the recording of 2 different carts would be a great practice and very informative... 
Whats the best $1500 tonearm for a Teres
Thanks gentlemen for your encouragement about the arm. The OL seems to have its share of detractors and those who love it. I think the detractors do not like the inability to adjust all planes ie azmuth. I'm not a big tweaker so i may not find thi... 
Whats the best $1500 tonearm for a Teres
OK, I've settled on an arm. I am picking up a Teres 340 on Monday and have bought an Origin Live Illustrious III for it.This may not be the final arm on this table but it was all I could afford at this time since I've really stretched to get the T...
