| DRT XV1s Vs Orpheus Vs Shelter Harmony Vs 47 Labs Ouch, the Jubilee comments hurt ;-)Seriously though, it was probably a more reasonable cart back when I had a VPI Scoutmaster and Dynavector P-75 but I've upgraded a bit since then.Anyway, the only reason I excluded the PC-1 was because it's about... | |
| PC: Synergistic Tesla, Lessloss, Transparent MM Well, I've had my Lessloss in my system for a few days now. I can say that I'm very glad that I purchased it, (yes I got it at the discounted price but after hearing it I would still be happy at the full price). I have tried it in a number of plac... | |
| PC: Synergistic Tesla, Lessloss, Transparent MM Just purchased one this morning. I can see how I would be PO'd had I bought one last week at full price when I was thinking about it, (I ended up pulling the trigger on a Synergistic T2 instead), but hopefully it delivers the goods. | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Well, I'm dipping my toes in the Synergistic waters very tentatively. I've recently replaced my entire analogue front end, phono-stage, turntable and arms.I've consistently shortchanged cables and am now looking at that area as I've pretty well na... | |
| PC Recommendation for Tron Seven Phono Pre Thanks Leica_Man. That makes the Synergistic option even more appealing. I'm looking for a PC that provides good detail without harshness or tipped up high frequencies. If the cable had to err from perfectly neutral then a slight warmth would be p... | |
| PC Recommendation for Tron Seven Phono Pre I should add, I am wanting to keep it around $500 or so but have been thinking about the following:LesslossSynergistic Research T3, (a bit more than I want to spend)Virtual Dynamics - Power 1, David or Nite series.Cardas Golden ReferenceNot sure a... | |
| To Raven One owners..... I would speak to Jeffrey from Highwater. He's a great person to deal with and definitely not a high pressure kind of sales person. He'll be best positioned to give you answers relating to arms and what compromises you'll be making.I originally bou... | |
| Raven v Walker. Colored v Accurate? Thanks Jonathan for taking the time to offer a little more insight around your review, very much appreciated. As the proud new owner of a Raven AC I have to admit, I was a little anxious about how the review was going to go. Deviations from perfec... | |
| Anyone using Ortofon AS-309-S arm? Congrat's, good luck with it. I should have mine up and running in a week or so. I'll post my impressions of it then. | |
| Anyone using Ortofon AS-309-S arm? I have one sitting in a box but haven't set it up yet, (waiting for new table). I purchased it after speaking to Jeffrey Catalano at Highwater Sound in NY. Jeffrey has very good things to say about it and also said the manufacturer of the TW-Acust... | |
| TW Raven Acustic AC Owners I know that one member here uses a Minus-K support, used for things like lab equipment I believe, (microscopes, etc), for his Raven AC. When mine shows up it will be going onto the top of my Arcici Suspense rack. I have toyed with the idea of gett... | |
| Graham Phantom vs Triplaner Downunder, speak to Juki for the Ortofon arm, he sells them. I almost got mine there but ended up going with Jeffrey from Highwater Sound in NYC, (because I was buying my Raven from him). I did get the LH-8000 headshell for it from Juki though, (i... | |
| Graham Phantom vs Triplaner Can't help but hope you get an answer. I'm getting a Raven AC and am putting a 12" Ortofon AS-309s on first and will be adding another arm in the fall. I'm leaning towards a Phantom but am curious about the Tri-Planar myself. | |
| Time between playing the same LP Thanks Gaslover. That "rule" made no sense to me from a scientific perspective. If it did heat up, (which I highly doubt it does to any appreciable degree), you'd be able to measure it with an infared thermometer. And even if it did get hot how th... | |
| How Much Is TOO MUCH for a Analog front End? I'd say whatever your reasonably comfortable spending should be the limit... i.e. there is obviously no set limit. Some folks have lots of money and the thought of spending many thousands doesn't fly, others I'm sure have excellent tables in more ... |
