| SL1200GAE New Tonearm unfortunatelly my dialogue with atmasphere was and is from a way different subject.That is true - mostly an apparent lack of decorum on Raul's part. | |
| SL1200GAE New Tonearm ^^ If you want to say stuff, you have to make sense.You've presented nothing in the way of argument to back your position, just personal attacks and accusations based on nothing. You need to up your game. | |
| SL1200GAE New Tonearm Problem is that atmasphere is a seller and always post to promote something of his busine$$.@rauliruegas I'm calling BS on this. Every Triplanar we've installed on SL1200G 'tables was shipped to us by the customer. Get your facts straight. | |
| Tube Amp & Speaker match Avoid four ohm speakers- go for 8 or 16 ohms. The output transformer is wider bandwidth and lower distortion into the higher impedances. | |
| How much do I need to spend to get a preamp that sounds better than no preamp? I think your the one that needs to lay off the false claims about passives with blanket statements about their ability to drive ect ect. Every time they are bought up, your on it to protect active preamps.Here is a person you should kneel to as... | |
| Best balanced linestage/preamp for $4000 or less ??? um , maybe not ... $5600 with phono... don't need that partThe MP-3 is also available as a line stage. | |
| How much do I need to spend to get a preamp that sounds better than no preamp? This is picking hairs and scare mongering, and just selecting a worst case scenario. 90% of amps are 33kohm input impedance or higher. The impedance of the amps is not the issue. The impedance of a 10K control is. Per your post prior to mine:It do... | |
| How much do I need to spend to get a preamp that sounds better than no preamp? It doesn't matter one iota where the volume control is positioned here, these figures have a perfect impedance match regardless of volume position. As do 90% of sources and amps out there when mated to 10kohm passive volume controls. This state... | |
| Is getting a new pre-amp the right upgrade path? A tube preamp might be a really nice move. I would audition it if possible- to make sure it plays nicely with the other components. | |
| Best balanced linestage/preamp for $4000 or less ??? @oem-wheels If you plan to get an MP-3, it has no worries driving a 10K load or even a lot less. IOW it can drive the sub and your regular amp no worries. The biggest issue is whether the sub has balanced inputs- many don't. | |
| Solid core XLR interconnect recommendation (up to 300$ for a used 8ft pair) ? FWIW, the whole point of balanced line connections is to eliminate the artifact caused by the cable. This has as more to do with what is driving the cable than the cable itself. As long as the cable is built correctly (twisted pair within a shield... | |
| Why are my woofers pumping? I would grease the platter bearing and see if that makes a difference. If it helps, I would consider replacement of the bearing unless grease is an acceptable lubricant.The fact that its happening in time with the rotation of the platter (as you s... | |
| Best balanced linestage/preamp for $4000 or less ??? A useful thing to check for when looking into balanced preamps is whether they support the balanced standard (also known as Audio Engineering Society file 48).The reason to support this standard is to eliminate the sonic artifacts of the interconn... | |
| Current, Amperage If 4, you need to check the 4 ohm rating. Some double, other no where near double power to 4 ohms from 8Just because an amplifier can't double its power when impedance is halved does not indicate that it can't behave as a voltage source. | |
| Do ClassDAudio Amps Have Proper Decay Of Notes? BTW, someone said that Class D is not "digital" which is partly true, but PWM is a digital signal processing technique, so it's understandable for those amps to be called "digital" especially from a marketing angle. Just had to put that in the... |
