| Benz Micro LP S vs Air Tight PC-1 w/ files I've never understood why someone would post a digitized sample of an analog cart/system that they want others to play over the cdp in their system and then think we are hearing the same thing that they have been hearing. The amount of variables i... | |
| Turntable in $155-2500 range The TNT mentioned above is a good table as is the VPI Scoutmaster w/Signature arm. | |
| Whats the best $1500 tonearm for a Teres DougI moved the Goldring over to the JMW-9 which comes with the Scoutmaster. It was a terrible match which surprised me since, according to specs it should have worked nicely. That is what made me wonder if it was a mismatch in the table and cart ... | |
| Whats the best $1500 tonearm for a Teres Thanks for the informative answersFWIW, my question was spawned from my experience with an upgrade from an MMF-7 to a Scoutmaster. I had a Goldring Elite cart which had performed very good on the 7. However when I put it on the SM, I was very disa... | |
| How large is your music collection? 3k LP1K cd1000-1500 albums in FLAC filesI figure they won't let me have my LP's in the nursing home so I'm currently backing up my albums to FLAC filesYou can never have too much music. I like the idea of having a large collection which allows me ... | |
| Will a Conrad Johnson fan like Modwright LS 36.5 Downunder, I'd love to have the ART but I think it is probably out of my budget.......................well, unless you are feeling generous and could make me a good deal. I'd promise to give it a good home. (-:BTW did you mean to say that you like... | |
| Will a Conrad Johnson fan like Modwright LS 36.5 Decisions decisions. I've been lusting for the CJ 16ls for some time. Even though it doesn't have the teflon caps, I've heard nothing but good stuff about it. I'm just now getting the budget for it so maybe one will come along. I'd love to hear th... | |
| PS Power Plant or Alan Maher PE's? Nsgarch. thanks for your reply. I am 100% with you in the importance of asking the right questions.I may speak to the power company as well since I think this situation is somewhat ridiculous. Yes, I live in the mountains, but I live in a town of ... | |
| PS Power Plant or Alan Maher PE's? Nsgarch Thanks for your info. I do have a few questions however. How will the apc power supply effect the sound? Would I be better to not leave my amp and sub woofer on? I can't turn off the preamp because it has no on/off switch so that presents ... | |
| PS Power Plant or Alan Maher PE's? Dopogue, I have not discounted PC's but I think I should probably start at the source. I have auditioned one big name PC and I couldn't hear any difference at all. That said, I'm still not a naysayer. I used to be until i was forced to put in a de... | |
| PS Power Plant or Alan Maher PE's? Thanks for the clarification Tvad. I didn't take it as too critical. It mirrors my experience. I've exchanged emails with Alan and have come away more confused than helped. That's not meant as a slam on Alan. On the contrary, I could not understan... | |
| PS Power Plant or Alan Maher PE's? Wow. A post disappeared. Was it removed by the author or by the mod? I didn't see anything wrong with it. Anyway, thanks for the replies so far | |
| Where to go from here Footers. That was the ticket for my cdp. First I used pumice stone. Then i discovered roller balls. The improvement was more than subtle. Soundstage increased tremendously. Go to AA and look in the tweaks section for diyumasIt is simply a 1" coppe... | |
| Why the Blues Really Hit The Spot The blues simply says, "Life stinks but we're gonna be alright". Onhwy61 nails it when he says Blues aren't about being down. I heartily agree. They are more about being up in spite of life's storms. It is a universal message that ALL people can r... | |
| PSB Speakers - Which preamp is best Not exactly sure what you are shooting for since I see a 5 channel receiver listed in your system. So are you wanting a pre/processor or a 2 channel preamp. Either way, I think Adcom gear would fall in your price range and be a step up |
