New Phono Cart with Character Needed IMHO, you might find it impossible to find any cartridge, that would be close in performance to your phono stage, AND your TT could give it a justice. Short way to the answer to your question would be to ask other who have same phono stage (and at... | |
Multi-media teaching with great audio and great video - is it possible? Thank you for the reply and for that YT video. I thought I could split video and audio without using 3.5 to BT transmitter. I wanted to use its own BT to transmit the audio signal to BT speaker... Why simple, when it can be complicated, right? Unf... | |
Robert Plant Just listen Kashmir, Live from Celebration Day. Plant’s voice matured, Page’s guitar is wild, but under the Master’s control, Jason truly follows his Father’s footsteps and JPJ is freakin’ awesome foundation to this enormous energy release. Like H... | |
Building a 100 album vinyl collection 3 must have albums are? To start? Desert, island, mountain cave... If I'd stay with "modern" music, and as long as I could have my system, these would be three to start "The 100 Collection": Pink Floyd: Meddle Can: Soon Over Babaluma Wether Report: Black Market | |
Recommendation Request for Tube Power Amplifier Nice preamp. Try to invest in some Siemens or Tele ECC83, it should make it a bit better, and if NOS should last forever. Also a very good match for RWS (I do have it too). I'd just try some other SUTs, but that is more of the personal preference,... | |
Suggestions for Phono Preamp If you do not like switches, gain calculations, impedance matching, second guessing all the settings - and yourself... get current amplification based based phono preamp. However, I doubt $1,000 would be enough. Even used. | |
Good Suggestions for Tube Amps under 6k Ayon, Audiomat (I'm slightly biased owner of Audiomat), Audio Research and Octave. I owned or listened extensively those. Chose model appropriate for your speakers and room, with which I am not familiar with. Lampizator Atlantic (well, anything f... | |
How To Keep Cat Off Stereo Equipment? nonoise, good post. I am using Armor All SmokeX citrus spray for a second cat now - I think more than 20 years, the same one. I'm spraying it around the parameter, especially on the cables - about every two weeks, when I remember, or when I see m... | |
The best speaker cables you’ve had Its all about loading... and everything is a compromise. Last time I decided to "upgrade" the speaker cables, I compared Nordost Heimdall 2, Frey 2 and Tyr 2. In my system Frey 2 is the best fit. Tyr 2 actually tilted the spectrum a bit towards LF... | |
Adding a Dac and Stresmer And here I am, reading stresmeter... thinking "dear, I need one - that I would most likely never read..." Oh, well. Cognac is good. If weather did not go "f@ckyall", I'd be having a nice double maduro cigar on my patio. I have a nice pair of Focal... | |
what are your top "audio bargins" in your system history? Inexpensive is rather relative term... Any of this is not an necessity and not "must have", like food - which can, like right now, get unnecessarily expensive. While I am not wealthy nor rich, my understanding of a bargain in this hobby is directl... | |
Choosing new cables If I would be on the market for a new speakers, I would be contemplating Dynaudio Heritage. I'd bet that 866 can drive them with ease and grace. Great system you have there. Artisan Fidelity makes great turntable conversions. I am wondering about ... | |
Tube amps - what 3 things… Today afternoon I was spinning "Get On Board", Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder. Can't get enough of this album, but "Packing Up Ready To Go"... that song is something else. They sure found their sweet groove. Should you not feel the presence of that bass ... |
