| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? @ dover Yes... that's prolly what I'll do initially, until I've decided on the cartridge and phono stage... and... whether 1200GR or 1200G. | |
| Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs I must agree - my 40.2's have all the bass (and more) than I'll ever want. And... they simply must be driven and controlled by a high power SS amp, with a high damping factor (4000 for the H590). My 30.1's also sound superb with the H590. The... | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? I guess I should also ask... what is the best value priced phono stage? | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? You know I recently saw Frank Shroeder observe that the “two best cartridges in the World” were the Denon 103R and the Audiotechnica AT95 – both inexpensive, practical cartridges. I listened to both on YouTube and in A:B comparisons, they each sou... | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? @yogiboy "My friend uses the Grado Opus 3 with that Technics and it sounds damn nice. And the price is right!" So... what phono stage is he using with it? Hi or Low output cartridge? | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? @chayro "Honestly, if you have the Linn already, I would have it properly set up and just keep it. Once properly set up, Linn should go for many years without issues... new springs, grommets and a new belt are not expensive." ... | |
| Compact Portable Adapter to Support 2 Functions on BDP? "Forgidaboudit..." I've done enough research on such a WiFi Adapter - to know now... that there are no USB "Dongle" WiFi adapters that are reliable, certainly with Linux OS on the Bryston BDP's... | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? You guys that have been using a variety of cartridges - which one(s) do you prefer? I’ve been focused on Hana and Grado. The Hana, because it gets so many great reviews (as competing with much more expensive cartridges), and the Grado, because I’... | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? @recordbore "I have a Technics 1200G. If you are looking for an easy to set up and maintain table that will last forever, I think Technics 1200GR is a great choice. I have been using a Hana EL which is very nice. Just replaced it today with a Gr... | |
| Technics SL 1200GR with What Cartridge??? RE: Phono preamp - Haven't gotten that far yet. I don't recall what I used with the Linn Sondek LP12. And... I don't know which pre's best synergize / mate with what cartridges. So... open to suggestions there. | |
| Move from Parasound A23 to A21/A21+ or Something Else? @lordrootman "I will definitely look for A21+... i have own JC5 ,A21+ ,A21 and Hint6 to me A21+ get my vote though it depends on your speakers, but still A21+ is better." So... you prefer the A21+ to the JC5? | |
| Move from Parasound A23 to A21/A21+ or Something Else? Lots of options - but the JC5 would prolly be my choice. It operates in class A up to about 20 watts - which you may never / rarely exceed. And you have all the power you will ever need no matter what speakers you may have in future. Ive got 2 ... | |
| Does measurements really matter? In a word - NO - measurements do not matter (so long as they're not terrible). The only thing that matters is how the components sound, which typically / often is not consistent with the measurements. The most important consideration is how ... | |
| Looking for warm tube preamp (should pair well with Pass power amp), budget $6000 ghdprentice "ARC... tube amps are very neutral and natural not remotely syrupy. Your description of what you wanted described it perfectly. Also, ARC gear is very synergistic… the more in the signal path the better it sounds... I never realized h... | |
