| Phono amps or stages for high-output cartridges? Oops, should read "high-output one" on the last line, obviously. | |
| Phono amps or stages for high-output cartridges? I hate to think of being without Fremer's coverage of all things phono, both in Stereophile and on Analog Planet. And as much as I like having his reviews, his phono section ones are of little value to a high-output cartridge user. Phono amps are ... | |
| Phono amps or stages for high-output cartridges? Halcro's suggestions reminded me---I should have included price considerations. The Ypsilon is worth more than my entire modest system! But thanks guys, I'm now inspired to dig into this deeper myself. Phono amp design is one where the measurement... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution Roger Modjeski of Music Reference/RAM Labs is making an ESL speaker that is direct-driven, but it's not cheap. He is also a proponent of low-power amps/high-sensitivity loudspeakers. | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution I just found this thread, and can certainly relate. I'm "only" 64 (!), but from playing drumset in bands since I was 14 and attending who knows how many live shows, I now have mild tinnitus and high-frequency hearing loss. I also am a long-time el... | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? Thanks Ray. You can't request a reimbursement (after having already filed a claim with Paypal) until five days after the Paypal transaction, to give Paypal a chance to contact the seller for a response. I'll do that tomorrow. | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? Thanks Al, the Paypal reimbursement claim has already been filed, it will just take a while to get the dough. I'll just have to struggle by with my ARC phono amp! | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? He was new Ray, no feedback. I didn't notice, and I'm not sure that would have stopped me, lusting as I was for a 324. Having had over fifteen years on ebay with not a single scam, I wasn't aware this kind of activity was being perpetrated. As the... | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? It's too bad Audiogon doesn't have a way of noticing a member has seven ID's on the same computer until after he does this. | |
| how do you set VTA onthe SME 309 tonearm? Do you have a nearby hi-fi dealer who knows turntables? Here in S. California we were lucky to have (until his passing a few years ago) THE turntable guy in the country, Brooks Berdan. When you bought a cartridge from him he would install it on yo... | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? "High interest pieces" is the thing. The guy picks the EAR 324 Phono Amp, a pretty esoteric item, as his bait. How would a guy like this even know about an item like the EAR?! | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? Josh got back to me today. The seller has seven ID's attached to his computer! Yeah, I won't be seeing the pre-amp. I'll call Paypal again after today, and start the process. I have 935 feedbacks on ebay (as buyer and seller), haven't had a single... | |
| Tonearm wiring termination---DIN, or RCA jacks? I sold the Well Tempered arm recently on ebay, and it can be seen if you do an "advanced" search for it on the site. Lary enclosed the internal wire with a braided sheath (for shielding) when it exited the arm, all the way to the male RCA's I had ... | |
| Tonearm wiring termination---DIN, or RCA jacks? I just saw all the responses---thanks! I've had the same "one uninterrupted run from clips to RCA plugs" viewpoint for years. When I had Lary Pedersen do his Well Tempered mod, I had him terminate the VdH wire in plugs to insert directly into my p... | |
| Multiple "sales" of EAR 324? Josh informed me that the seller is indeed definitely "fraudulent", and that his Audiogon membership and access has been revoked. Damn! Yet the seller is still telling me the arm will ship tomorrow (Friday 4-10), and he will email me the tracking ... |
