| Soundsmith VPI Zephyr vs. Dynavector 17D3?? Did you try setting your nighthawk to 47 k ohms with the Zephyr? You might want to also try the second and third lowest gain setting along with it. | |
| I need help and phonostage suggestions I have to chime in. I am personally using the B2B Liberty in my home system. I have used a LOT of phono stages. I build Step up transformers and don't usually write in because I play by the rules. Anyway, in recent times I had used a GCPH heavily ... | |
| What is the Phono stage you have finished with? Going back over the last 5 years, I went from a NAD 3020 to a Cullen Modified GCPH to a KRELL KPE to a Jasmine 2.0 MKII and just recently to a Liberty B2B. Each move was a significant upgrade. I only use the MM section and use a step up transfomer... | |
| Mint Protractor for the Classic Toneram 10.5i-SE Ken Willis makes a custom protractor (Accutrak) for any specific application. Just send him the model turntable and tonearm and also measure the pivot to spindle distance. http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=97229.0 Manufacturing tolerances... | |
| Vintage TT - looking to add one - recommendations? I own a Yamaha PX-2 and a PX-3. They are linear trackers, direct drive and really do a good job for me. I like the PX-2 better since it has a heavier platter and better feet, but I would recommend them both. | |
| has anyone had any problems w/ Jasmine phono LP2.0 I personally own 2 of them and have not had a problem with either. I have recommended them and have only heard of one with a problem. The person with a problem said they sent it back and got a new one from Jasmine in China. I had one of their head... | |
| Analog vs Digital Confusion Both, depending on the quality of your equipment and of the recordings - digital sounds great before it is down-sized to fit onto a CD. If you can get the hi-res digital files, they sound great. If the recording companies use the high res digitial... | |
| Jasmine vs Musical Surroundings Nova Phono Pre-Amp I had a PS Audio that I replaced with a KRELL KPE. At first I wouldn't even listen to the Jasmine because in my warped mind there was no way a $500 phono stage would compare. However, on first listen it blew away the KRELL and got even better with... | |
| Calling all owners - Jasmine LP 2.0 MKII I own one and my best friend also owns one. We love them. I have been through many phono preamps, each time upgrading, and this time I moved up from a KRELL KPE. He moved up from a GCPH. We both thought the Jasmine was not just a little better, bu... | |
| Yamaha PX-2 Cartridge I Love my PX-2. I have several cartridges (Koetsu Rosewood Signature, Shelter 901, Accuphase AC-2, Dynavector Ruby Karat and ZU DL-103R) all mounted on Sumiko Headshells. It is so easy to change out cartridges with the PX-2. Easy to set the tracki... | |
| Step up transformer for Ortofon Cadenza Bronze The Bronze has an output of .4mV with 5 ohms internal impedance. It will work well with a SUT of between 1:8 and 1:25. The higher the range, the more the highs will be attenuated. It will be a personal preference as to how bright you want the cart... | |
| DENON DL-304. Is it the bargain sound or not? What settings are you using on the phono inputs? | |
| PF SETTING FOR MC CARTRIDGE WITH SUT MC Cartridges do not like capacitance. You should reduce it to the minimum possible and also use interconnects with low capacitance. |
