| Cartridge (other than Rega) with Rega RP10 The Lyra Delos was pure magic on my RP10 until my now ex GF broke the cantilever off while house sitting when I was away some time ago.The rebuild was more than I paid for the Delos to begin with so I grabbed an Apheta 2 which is really quite good... | |
| How to adapt Elicit-r to your needs? I would add a Bluesound Node 2i which will give you streaming as well as Bluetooth, airplay etc - it'll work great in the context of your system.I wouldn't personally buy an amp/dac/streamer together as digital is moving too fast - better to have ... | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i Really curious to know how you make out as I've been seriously considering moving from the Node 2i to the U1 Mini myself recently and this seems like the obvious step if you have a good DAC.The Teac is definitely intriguing as an all in one as wel... | |
| ethernet connection for Netflix amazon etc. You definitely want to hard wire the TV for best video performance - I'm running a 65C9 and 4k streaming is spectacular via Netflix etc.Audio is fed via optical from the TV to my Anthem receiver sound is quite good.There is a lot of information be... | |
| Budget Audiophile system under 2k Rega Brio / KEF Q350 (or possibly PSB P5) /Bluesound Node 2i - should be right around 2 grand.Fun little system that you could easily live with on a long term basis. | |
| Amplifier for Harbeth 40.2 The Vinnie Rossi seems to come up again and again pretty sure they are 75-100 watts I'm running an LFD NCSE on my 40.2's which is 75 a channel and it's an excellent pairing as well.More power can't hurt but you might want to try a few amps out and... | |
| Would Totem Arro's be a significant upgrade from Kef Q150's The answer is only yes if you're prepared to upgrade the amp. Nothing wrong with the Yamaha integrated amps in general but the Totems will demand a better amp from day 1 that you own them. They'll sound a bit dull and lifeless until you up your ... | |
| HDMI problems HDMI handshake is a nightmare for sure especially when a switcher is involved - I'd try turning the HDMI controls off on all devices(sources and TV)and see if the signal passes through.Sounds counter intuitive but I wouldn't be surprised if it so... | |
| Parasound Zamp and Kef? Haven't heard the Parasound specifically but I can confirm that the Q350 are way less demanding than the LS50 - power wise that amp will drive them fine as would almost any decent 50 Watt amp Marantz PM6006 Rega Brio etc As to the amp/pre/speaker ... | |
| whats the best bob marley LP Catch a Fire would be my call all the others mentioned are very good as well but I enjoy Catch a Fire the most... | |
| Rega Elicit R 2019 vs Rega Elicit MK 1 1992 If you're the type of person that buys and amp and then runs it forever you should have a look at the newly released Rega Aethos - not sure on the layout inside but early reports seem to be positive.The Aethos looks really well built as compared t... | |
| Switched to Ls50 wireless; they sucked the “Life” out of my music I don't have experience with the actives but the passives definitely sound hard until they have a pile of hours on them.I would run them as close to 24/7 that you can for a month before you write them off. | |
| Tuk Speakers Heard them at a show and they were very impressive for their size really good bass overall really good sounding powered speakers.The KEF LSX are better but if you're willing to spend that much you should be able to grab a pair of KEF LS50 wireless... | |
| Turntable mat options I drove myself crazy trying to figure out what mat to get when I was running a p9 - wound up buying a Herbie's white mat which I used for a year or so then moved back to the felt mat and it sounded better so I stopped worrying about it and just us... | |
| LFD NCSE Mk3 I'm running an NCSE MKI with a pair of 40.2's and it drives them just fine - pretty sure it's either 70 or 75 per channel.Low volume listening isn't quite as good as I had experienced with more efficient speakers but that's to be expected, everyth... |
