| Whats on your turntable tonight? @6t5-gto Thanks for the heads up on the MOFI. I have spent more than that on a record before, but I'm not sure I can justify that, unless I bought it purely as a collector's item. | |
| Best Headphones $150? I like both. For me (I know not everyone shares this opinion) the Z1R are right up there with the best headphones I've listened to, Focal Utopia, Audeze LCD-4, etc. I love my Audeze LCD-XC, but they are really heavy. The Z1R and LCD-XC are grea... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I moved a couple of turntables around yesterday, putting my Project RPM 9 in my main system and mounting a re-tipped Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood on it. I've had the Virtuoso sitting in the closet for probably a year or so because I've been afraid to... | |
| Best Headphones $150? Sony MDR-7506 best headphones at any price.I have no experience with those, but if that's true I wasted about $1500 on the Sony MDR-Z1R. Glad I didn't pay full price for them! | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Utopia - Oops! Wrong Planet. I found a nice promo copy at the record store today. It sounds really good so far. | |
| Budget Music Streamer Not sure if I see value in the aftermarket digital streamers like Auralic Aries or Node2. First I plan on using an external DAC and secondly they all use Airplay which down samples to 44.1kHz. So where's the value unless you are using Hi-Res s... | |
| Budget Music Streamer I've been really happy with my BlueSound Node 2. I have 2 of them. I'm using one with my Auralic Vega DAC and I have the other connected to my Oppo 105D so that I can use its DAC if I want. You might consider that option. Since the introductio... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Space Art - Play Back Sounds a bit like a mashup of Kraftwerk and Vangelis, heavy on the Kraftwerk. | |
