| Steely Dan "Can't Buy A Thrill" on UHQR vinyl Just got my copy today. This is probably as good as it gets for this album and Bernie Grundman performed whatever magic he could here (soundstage is really good) but unfortunately this isn’t an amazing recording to begin with. Need to give this fe... | |
| Not Chinese Fakes But Not big $$$ Either Congrats! I also got bunch of stuff from Chris at VH Audio. Put together two Furutech power cords with Furutech connectors and they’re really tough to beat! Chris is a great guy to interact with and always provides a solid recommendation. | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass Low humidity? Dry air in the room? Do you use zerostat or anything else that helps dissipate static? Try grounding yourself before you touch the turntable arm. Lastly, try plugging the table back into the MF built in phono and see if issues persis... | |
| DH Labs How are the DH Labs Dimension tonearm/phono cables? My table, MoFi UltraDeck has rca out. I’m currently using the stock RCA tonearm cables which I think are Cardas. Any benefit in upgrading those? | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass You should be good with 43db gain and 47k load with that cartridge. The other pf settings are for capacitance. I would keep that at default or zero. | |
| SabrinaX vs JA Perspective2 Graphene I like small floor standing speakers to fit into a smaller living space. Add B&W 804 D4 to your list. | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass Good deal! Should only get better with more hours on it. | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass I really liked the phono stage in the Rogue RP-1 preamp that I had. Pretty safe to assume the Triton II will be a vety good phono amp. Let us know! | |
| Balanced vs. Single Ended Interconnects holmz 1,910 posts 11-08-2022 at 12:03am @mceljo maybe the padre would let you borrow a set to try at home? If they work fine at church, they should work at home. Now you talkin’! A very solid thought! What’s next…a speaker from an ice c... | |
| SabrinaX vs JA Perspective2 Graphene There are plenty of haters, especially when talking about Wilson Audio speakers. You need to go and listen to the speakers to determine if you like the sound @soix … the dealer coming out to set up the speakers in your room after purchase is not ... | |
| Balanced vs. Single Ended Interconnects Stay with your AQ RCA cables until you can buy a good set of XLR cables. Buying the monoprice XLR is throwing $20 away. They won’t beat your audioquest cables. Also, my recommendation is to make bigger steps while upgrading. So if you want to st... | |
| What a difference a setting makes. @avanti1960 I doubt it. The cartridge was at over 50hrs by time I got the 20/20. If it did break in some more, it would be a smaller change. I had this cartridge with the KC Vibe MkII and the system never sounded as dull, dry, muddy, congested and... | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass That Rogue piece will definitely be an upgrade over the built in phono! Let us know. | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass Moving speakers closer together will usually add a bit more presence in mid/upper bass. Slight adjustments 1/2” to 1” per side at a time. | |
| I keep being reminded of how much power cords mater @larry5729 you lost MQA by adding digital cable? Unless it’s the cable between your BS Node and your DAC…BS Node won’t output MQA and your DAC might not support MQA regardless |
