| JL Audio e112 or HSU ULS MK2 @danimaz, If you reread my post above, you will notice I did NOT state that I prefer Rythmik over Hsu and JL. I brought Rythmik to your attention firstly because you responded to mzk’s post about the Rythmik F18 by saying you are not interested in... | |

| Whats playing on your system today? reubent and others who haven’t been Springsteen lovers, I too have yet to understand his allure, or the enormousness of his popularity. But I haven’t seen him live, and from the clips I’ve seen (and the accolades from those I know who have), that’... | |
| Attending an audio show Oh, and bring your preferred headache remedy. I invariably have developed one as the late afternoon approaches. | |
| Impedance matching with tube amp hansk46's figures may be incorrect---100k output for the ARC Ref3 certainly is, and 600 ohms for the input of the Sphinx is, if correct, by far the lowest I have ever seen in a power amp. | |
| Mapleshade Isolation: Does Nothing? Excellent 1markr! The original Ingress roller bearing (Level 1, I believe) equals the twice-as-expensive Symposium Rollerblock Jr., for less than a hundred bucks for a set of three. His only-slightly-more-expensive models are superior to the highe... | |
| JL Audio e112 or HSU ULS MK2 @danimaz, the 18" model is Rythmik's newest (available in both sealed and ported versions), but 8", 12", and 15" models are also available, the 8 and 12 priced at less than a grand, the 15 just over. All feature owner/designer Brian Ding's custom ... | |
| Phono Preamps with "balls" ? In his Stereophile review of the Liberty B2B phono amp, Michael Fremer described it as being unusually dynamic. There is one currently available on AudiogoN. | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Man, what a pleasure it is to read comments about music from listeners whose taste is so in line with my own! | |
| Attending an audio show @mcrib, bring with you a recording whose sound and music you are very familiar with. Use the same song or two to audition all systems (or speakers, etc.); that way you are comparing apples to apples. | |
| SME Tonearms of Canada - Alfred and Company that sell new and refurbish SME There is a guy in the UK doing great pickup arm work---Johnnie at Audio Origami. He does rewires using either Cardas copper or two different brands of silver (one being Kondo)., and has nothing but satisfied clients. | |
| Which pickup do I sell, which do I keep? Naw tkr, you just need a second table ;-). I myself just got one to mount a TransFi Terminator arm with London pickup on. | |
| Phono stage The Liberty is NOT a tube design, but according to Michael Fremer’s description of it’s sound in Stereophile a while back, does provide great bass slam. That was in fact one of the things Fremer liked most about it. There happens to be a used one ... | |
| Favorite Dylan? Yes indeed, jafant. He started going to Nashville in ’65, to get the studio musicians he wanted on his recordings: Charlie McCoy, Kenny Buttrey, Fred Carter, Pete Drake, Bob Wilson, Charlie Daniels, lots of others (most of them playing on Ringo’s ... | |
| Most underrated Audio Manufacturers syntax’s original list is still relevant. I owned three on his list at the time of it’s posting. Lots of other excellent nominees have been added since then, but not Music Reference, Eminent Technology, BEL, Van Alstine, Clear Day, and Kimber. |
