| What a difference a setting makes. Hahaha that’s right! And we both thought 58/100 was a sweet spot. Glad you played around with the loading settings and posted your results. I’m thoroughly enjoying this cartridge/phono amp combination. Good synergy. | |
| What a difference a setting makes. @rvpiano thanks for this thread! You encouraged me to revisit the 200ohm load setting. As I said earlier I didn’t like it initially when I first got the 20/20. Now with some break in time the 20/20 is a different beast. Completely different experi... | |
| DAC vs PC vs Source Not surprised. Good to know about Delta PC. It’s on my list to try on DAC. | |
| What a difference a setting makes. In my setup the Hana ML with Sutherland 20/20 MkII LPS sounds better at 58/100. Table is MoFi UltraDeck. Although I admit I have only tried and didn’t like 200ohm load setting when the 20/20 was still breaking in. It sounded too full at 200, not a... | |
| Bi amping my ML SL3 speakers Quantity is much less important than quality here when talking watts. Don’t get hung up on amplifier power. If you want to make what you have work, disassemble the SL3, check woofers, make sure all the screws are tightened, vacuum or wash the pan... | |
| The character of analog and digital @sudnh try some of the Analog Productions reissues. I’m really digging the classical and jazz these guys are putting out very good quality vinyl. | |
| Bi amping my ML SL3 speakers I looked up that Rotel amp. It’s ok. Should be fine but what I suggested about moving to a newer model MLs (if you like the sound) has several benefits- 1. Newer design Montis (I had those), Summit, etc. have powered woofer. I drove the Montis wi... | |
| Bi amping my ML SL3 speakers 👍 | |
| Bi amping my ML SL3 speakers Bi-wiring or using another amp will not solve that issue. The SL3 are old. Even new they never felt comfortable playing at concert levels. It’s possible something is wrong with woofers so you can look into it. Give ML customer service a call. Wh... | |
| Bi amping my ML SL3 speakers +1 on suggestions to use one good amp and bi-wire the speakers. However… Few things to consider here - 1. The ML panels present more challenges to the amplifier than the woofers do. This is because the impedance on the panels can dip below 2ohms.... | |
| RCA is loose Doesn’t look like the locking RCA type. Sorry…it’s either the pliers or the bnc adapter. Or if you can swap it to AES cable that would be the option I’d go for. | |
| RCA is loose Also, if Reymio has AES/EBU input, I’d just switch to using that instead, with something like DH Labs AES cable…will be hard to beat. | |
| RCA is loose @johnah5 what RCA cable is it? Sure it’s not a locking typically and you just need to tighten it? | |
| Do I need a streamer? @whitestix I used Mac Mini as a streamer for quiet some time before upgrading to Auralic Aries G1 and Lumin U1 Mini. I’ve done several comparisons of streamers to Mac Mini and the Mac lost every time whether it streamed Qobuz or played files from ... | |
| DACs that do well without a preamp You’re not going to get a dac at that price that has a good volume control. I had a Benchmark DAC 3 HGC and lived with its volume control for few weeks when I was in process of switching preamps. In my mind, that’s the only use case, to get you by... |
