| Dustcover Blues @mijostyn , Glad you have things started out and now you are able to "rock out" again and play your music at listening levels that only a few appreciate...I get it. I also like to play loud every once in a while. Well, perhaps, more lately;). Th... | |
| Koetsu Jade Platinum vs. Koetsu Jade Plat. Diamond Well, since this post has been resurrected from the dead, has anyone had experiences going from a Jade/Onyx Platinum to a Diamond version? | |
| Hana Umami Red vs Dynavector xv-1s Analogforum.de is a German audio forum. There are a couple posts in English and links to English reviews, but overall, the entire forum and most of the pages in the Umani Red discussion are German. Google translate might work for the site. | |
| Phono preamp suggestions; can I improve upon my Aesthetix Rhea Sig ? @skinzy Yes, the newer or upgraded (sent back to factory for refresh) Io phono amps are fantastic. Since you already have experience with tube rolling, you will find that you don’t have to with the newer Io Eclipse versions as Aesthetix is caref... | |
| Phono preamp suggestions; can I improve upon my Aesthetix Rhea Sig ? I have heard an earlier version of the Pass Phono at a friends house and compared that to my Aesthetix IO Signature (now Eclipse with two power supplies) circa, 2008. I though the Pass Phono was an outstanding phono amp as it performed its duties,... | |
| Phono preamp suggestions; can I improve upon my Aesthetix Rhea Sig ? Congratulations on your new upgrades, That is a tough call, because only you will be able to determine if something will be better in your system. Yes, typically, a more costly, or the next higher device in a lineup should sound better, but; that... | |
| New Transrotor TRA9 tonearm coming soon @mijostyn I tend to agree with that logic with regards to SME perhaps restarting their tonearm business. One can hope:) The vinyl resurgence is tremendous and manufacturers who are well rounded will be/ are able to capitalize on customer dema... | |
| New Transrotor TRA9 tonearm coming soon Hmmm, that’s interesting. I have the latest catalog but did not look at the tonearm section. I already own two SME Vs, but this would be good news for anyone wanting to purchase a new in box SME. I did a quick search on the Music Direct web site a... | |
| New Transrotor TRA9 tonearm coming soon @lewm I agree, Transrotor was in a bind by not having SME tonearm/turntable bundles anymore. I am not sure if Transrotor baselined and tested their turntables with SME arms. It would only make sense if they did. I know when I purchased my Trans... | |
| New Transrotor TRA9 tonearm coming soon @mijostyn Yes, that tonearm deserves a turntable that will match with its character. The Oracle sure has the looks, but, so does my Transrotor. I think it will be a perfect match with the Apollon TMD. I am glad you highlighted those specs bec... | |

| New Transrotor TRA9 tonearm coming soon Yes, I did in fact deliberate on this decision for quite some time. Although I love the SME Vs and V12s, they lacked the ability to make azimuth adjustments. I could live with the set and forget form factor and design of the SMEs as they have simp... | |
| Does Kronos Sparta turntable come with a tonearm? I think if you look here and at audio mart you will find options for turntables in your price range with your requirements. If I wanted to sell my Transrotor, it would be listed here and other places. | |
| Back to Teo Audio cables as my last stand. If these cables are so wonderful, why don’t they publish prices on their website? I cannot locate prices at all. If they are supposed to be giant killers and a good purchase in terms of costs relative to other higher expensive products, I would as... | |
