| Best Used Vinyl Shops in Las Vegas, Nev I have frequented several of the record shops in Las Vegas while working rooms during CES, looking for interesting music to demo. The store I remember best is 11th Street Records. It's downtown, not on the strip, but it's an easy drive or uber r... | |
| Looking for thoughts from Nottingham Analog table owners fjn04,In the example described above, the demo was in the customer's home. LFD phono stage, LFD integrated amp, Harbeth speakers (don't remember which model).In my room I demo Pear Audio Blue turntables with a variety of components: Pear Audio tu... | |
| Looking for thoughts from Nottingham Analog table owners *Disclaimer: I am a dealer for Pear Audio Analogue products.The Pear Audio Blue Kid Thomas, Kid Punch and Kid Howard are the ONLY turntables that were actually designed by the late, great Tom Fletcher, other then the older Nottingham Audio models.... | |
| Where do you go to from Nottingham Analogue ? inna,Thanks. We like it too.We usually demo the Pear Audio Blue Kid Thomas using the Ortofon Cadenza Black cartridge, running through either a custom GamuT SUT or Ortofon's ST-80SE SUT and Pear Audio's own Reference Preamp with integrated phono s... | |
| Best Turntable for the Price - Linn Basik The Linn Axis is a great entry-level deck. But it really deserves a better arm than the Akito, but it's usually not worth the cost to upgrade to the Ittok. IMO, of course.It's a great time to be turntable shopping in this day and age. There are ... | |
| Where do you go to from Nottingham Analogue ? Check out the Pear Audio Blue line of turntables. They are the final realization of Tom Fletcher's amazing turntable designs and IMO Provide an excellent step-up from any Nottingham Analogue deck.*Disclaimer* I am a Pear Audio Blue dealer | |
| Introducing Edwards Audio Turntables So why not just propose banning posts from dealers altogether?I understand that you might find my post self-aggrandizement. I only made mention in order to introduce a very popular line of UK-manufactured turntables to the U.S. market. Aren't mo... | |
| Introducing Edwards Audio Turntables coolhunter, I appreciate your point of view. I actually own a u-turn and I agree, it's a turntable. The u-turn is a great product, albeit very basic and entry level. If that meets your needs, great, Most of my customers are looking for a bit (... | |
| Transfiguration Phoenix vs Ortofon Cadenza Ignore the troll, above. There is no single perfect cartridge, just as there is no best speaker or amp or whatever. The Cadenza Black is a great cartridge and I'm sure that you will enjoy it.Similarly, Bob Sattin makes a great SUT. I'm not acqu... | |

| Outboard speed control for Thorens TD-124 You don't need an external speed controller for the TD-124. IMO the best upgrade you can make to your Thorens deck is to replace the old analog controller board and neon strobe with a quartz controller and LED strobe from Keystrobe UK. The parts a... | |
| Cartridge/arm matching Chakster,Yes, I am sure that using a multiple of 1.5x is incorrect. But it provides a closer usable value for the DL-103 than a higher multiple. As I said in my previous post, there is no simple formula that can accurately convert cartridge compli... | |
| Cartridge/arm matching Again, no. The adjusted compliance for the Denon DL-103 at 10Hx is often mistakenly quoted at 11x10-6cm/dyne. The fact is that no standard formula that works for converting compliance from all cartridges due to differences in construction and mate... | |
| Cartridge/arm matching >>The 103R is similar in compliance to the Shelter...Actually, no. The compliance for the Shelter 501 MkII is 9 x 10-6 cm/dyne, while the compliance for the Denon DL-103 is 5 x 10-6 cm/dyne. That's quite a difference. There are very few if a... | |
| Floor Stander with Small Footprint 7K - 15K I would urge you to take a look at the Larsen 8 speakers: - floor standing speakers with a small footprint- full range, bass extends down to true 23Hz- designed to be placed directly against the wall- designed to eliminate or minimize room problem... |
