| Need help finding a phono/preamp The Parks Puffin deserves its own discussion. I have one of those with my pro-ject table strictly for poorly recorded albums. Great way to improve any sound that needs it. Lacking treble, midrange or bass, no problem. Cool gizmo regardless that it... | |
| Need help finding a phono/preamp I would highly recommend the 110 LP V2 from simaudio. Under $500, multiple adjustments to fit any cartridge. I love the sound of mine with my VPI Classic 1 table and Lyra Kleos cart. | |
| I think some cables are just a little too expensive. There is something seriously obscene about such products. Enough to turn many would be audiophile people off imo. Products designed strictly for the upper elite have no room in my system, whether I could afford them or not. I wouldn't feel right a... | |
| Subwoofer Suggestion For stereo I use dual Rythmick F12 sealed subs. Loads of adjustments to make them disappear into the speakers. Plenty of power at 370 watts each with very tight musical bass. They have ported subs better fitted for HT. | |
| Why are there so many wooden speakers? Ascend acoustic sierra towers use vertical laminated bamboo. | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Agreed with furiouslyadrift about the raal tweeters. I have the ascend acoustic sierra towers with raal and they have very narrow vertical dispersion. Great clarity at ear level in your sitting sweet spot, but more subdued when standing up. | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) 6.5 ft ceiling!?!If your info is correct, that ceiling needs major acoustic treatment. | |
| All New Pure Audio ONE Integrated Amp Reviewed! It says $10,000. | |
| You know you are an Audiophile when: Good for you, it is a journey. From planning the dream building through unending research, designing it, the financing, building it, moving in 2,000 vinyl and all the gears, plus installing the acoustic treatments, it took a good five years. But i... | |
| You know you are an Audiophile when: On a more serious note, you know you are an audiophile when you build a dedicated listening house, not a room, but a separate building housing a listening room. And only you have a key, not even the wife has one. It is the ultimate peace of mind a... | |
| You know you are an Audiophile when: Thanks guys, This is the funniest read I have had on this forum so far. Hilarious. And so true in many ways. Like the tape measure thing, haha. | |
| Why cuts into vinyl covers? Thanks a lot. So from now on, for best sound I should look for holes punched, side cuts or promo stamps or labels and forget about the corner cut offs.Got it. | |
| Emotional rollercoaster I am a newbie here, so my word won't carry much weight. But here it is. Upgrading is definitely worth it as long as you keep it within your budget. But starting with the listening room acoustics is the best way to go in my experience. It took me ... | |
| Why cuts into vinyl covers? Interesting read but many different takes. More confused than ever. | |
| Favorite song to demo or test drive speakers? Correction, Supertramp -Brother where you bound, also use Dire Straits - Brothers in arms, hence the confusion. Second side only, first side reeks of commercial. |
