"D" amps, general discussion who's 1 and why? I talk to customers daily and generally speaking those most critical of Class D amps have never heard a good example. Some have and that's fine; at least they've given a listen.Many are skeptical and unwilling to accept new technology when in fact... | |
Merrill tables >>i'd love to hear any turntable that is 'lightyears' ahead of another<<I think he was exaggerating.What he meant to say was, 10,000% better. | |
What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008 Not the single best album, but I purchased a fairly large collection that included 6 sealed Mel Torme albums on the Bethelehm and Verve labels from the 50's and 60's.Still sealed BTW. | |
Need cartridge advice for turntable The 103 and Nima are a very bad match due to the Denon's very low compliance. The accident is unfortunate but here's a chance to really improve your front end.Nima is a unipivot with a medium effective mass. Consequently it works best with cartrid... | |

Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance? Thanks Ralph,You've validated my position concerning irrelevance of the phono cable as it relates to cartridge loading.This is Vinyl 101 and I hope others pay attention. | |
Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance? Zieman,I don't want to embarrass you further but the impedance of any phono cable is negligible. I'm sure you don't know this based on your posts. Most phono cables have impedances of well under 2 ohms; some are as low as 0.15 ohms (Zu Xaus).The o... | |
Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance? A good rule of thumb (i.e. place to start) is 25 times the coil resistance of the cartridge. That generally winds up somewhere between 100 - 1000 ohms as most moving coils have an internal resistance between 4 and 40 ohms. Then you can vary it up ... | |
