| Does any one have experience with a high-end amp switch or the Luxman AS-55 I have used a Luxman AS-55. It works great although I prefer the AS-50R remote model for comparing speakers because I don't have to get up off my butt to do an A/B comparison.Audio by Van Alstine also makes a very good comparator. It's probably ... | |
| Has anyone here restored a Sony TTS 8000 platter or a similar strobed platter My spidey sense smells a trap but here goes:It's not that I think the TTS8000 is a bad turntable, just that it's not a great turntable IMO and is not worth a lot of time or effort to restore; not from a monetary (resale) perspective anyway and I j... | |
| Speaker wants 100 watt RMS. Is 40 watt tube OK? No matter what anyone says, 40 watt tube approximates 100 watt SS. The size of the room is the dominant factor in this equation.Is there some law of physics I missed in school? This may be sorta true in some cases, with some amps but it's far f... | |
| PS Audio Revises Marketing to a Direct Sales Only Model maybe its time for someone to set up a "demo dealer" someone that is not there to sell to you but to allow you to listen, feel and spend time with an item. maybe the manufacturers can pay them or you pay for the services maybe both. I'd love to ... | |
| Has anyone here restored a Sony TTS 8000 platter or a similar strobed platter clearly you have not heard one well enough set up as they can beat so many TT's around, vintage or modernSorry, gotta respectfully disagree. I've restored several (4?) of these over the years and heard others, restored and original. Just doesn... | |
| Has anyone here restored a Sony TTS 8000 platter or a similar strobed platter parrotbee, I just never felt that this deck was worth the (any) amount of effort required to get it into operational and salable condition. YMMV | |
| Has anyone here restored a Sony TTS 8000 platter or a similar strobed platter Unless the TTS-8000 just needs light cosmetic work it's just not worth the effort of a full restoration. They were an early effort by Sony to try and capture the low-end of the professional market. Most were sold to consumers.I have restored 3-4... | |
| Micro Seiki MA-505LS tone arm, anybody familiar? I did not find the MA-505 (or any dynamically balanced tonearm) to be the best match to the DL-103 cartridge, standard or R version. I would try the Scheu. | |
| Micro Seiki MA-505LS tone arm, anybody familiar? Great tonearms. In my experience the L versions had more quality control issues than the shorter versions; maybe because they didn't manufacture many? Also, there is some debate whether "S" versions actually existed or what the moniker stood for... | |

| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon Folks, Audiogon has seen fit to remove a couple of posts. Say what you want but please keep it civil. We all want to read what you have to say. | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon @oregonpapa,I don’t recall anyone asking you for your opinion, Elizabeth.Isn't this exactly the forum attitude Elizabeth was commenting on?I'm not a moderator but as far as I'm concerned anyone should be able to comment on any audio topic at any t... | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon OK, so you're coming at this topic as an ex-dealer yourself??@twolefttears, I clearly identified myself as a FORMER dealer in the first sentence of the opening post.Are you asking me if I am biased? I don't think so. And what constitutes bias,... | |
| My Thoughts re: Dealers Posting on Audiogon 1 were you an honest dealer or only pushed your products2 why did you decide to carry one brand over another were you trying to offer the best products you heard or something else3 do you value any dealers opinions 1. I think so. I did it diff... | |
