| Rogue Audio or Mcintosh I have a Rogue 99 and 88 combo and love it. The mids are warm, the highs not shrill and the bass tight. The sound stage is very nice. I use it with Chinese KT 88 tubes. But trust your own ears. I'm relatively new to enjoying higher end Audio equip... | |
| Rogue 88 Magnum upgrade Thanks very much for the feedback all. Sounds like it is worth doing. Happy Holidays. Len | |
| Speakers with Correction, I am running the 88 in ultralinear mode(not triode)for more power (about 70 wpc). Thanks again for any comments | |
| Speakers with I tried hooking the Shearwaters up to a 100 wpc Kenwood receiver to try the more power theory and got alot of bass and highs out of the speakers. Midrange was very muddy and supressed compared to the Rogue. Of course I know we're in a different le... | |
| Speakers with Thnaks for the education folks. I love this forum and learn something new everytime I log on. Your experience is greatly appreciated. | |
| Speakers with Sean,I am relatively new to the audio world but that sounds right. The lower mid and upper bass are more obviously present with the JBLs(they come to the fore)compared to the Shearwaters. That's a quality that I really enjoy and gets me more emoti... | |
| Upgrading VPI Jr to VPI MK 3 Thanks folks for the responses. I'm going to change my pre-amp first since that is less expensive than the platter upgrade. I plan to then upgrade the platter to the MK III and build the Corian plinth. Audioquest also suggests an upgrade to an Ana... | |

| TT opinions please I just purchased a VPI Jr with the AQ6 arm but have not set it up yet. Hopefully I'll get back to you next week. Like you I am getting back into vinyl again. I've been listening with an old Dual and brand x cartridge so I'm anticipating a much bet... | |
| Speakers for small room,near field I have a room 12x20 with 8 foot ceilings and like you I am limited by the seating arrangement so that I am about 9 feet from my speakers. I have Meadowlark Shearwater Hot Rods with a Rogue 99/88. The detail and sound stage are very nice with this ... | |
| TT/ cartridge recommendations $1000 Sedond(Doug),I bought the VPI Jr with the Benz Glider here on Audiogon and expect to receive it this weekend. Thanks for your advice. I have learned alot from the many experienced audiophiles here on Audiogon and am enjoying the benefits of the "h... | |
| TT/ cartridge recommendations $1000 Thanks again for the input. You have helped consider some points I would not have thought of as a new audio enthusiast. One more question guys.I still have my Dual 1237 from the 1980s. If I replaced my cartridge with lets say a Goldring 1042 or Re... | |
| TT/ cartridge recommendations $1000 How does a VPI Jr with a Audioquest PT7 arm and Benz micro glider sound, 2 yrs old for about $1000 ? | |
| new system for beginner I started a a beginner about one year ago. This is what I have learned:1)Audition as many systems in the store as possible before making a selection. Your hearing will "mature" as you listen more i.e. it will get easier to hear differences between... |
