| Pro Ject Debut Carbon improvement possibilities Understood. It's not like there's only one correct answer. | |
| Pro Ject Debut Carbon improvement possibilities dprincipato, I got back into vinyl several years back with that same Project Debut Carbon, super turntable for the money. When I decided to upgrade about a 18 months ago, I purchased the new MoFi Ultradeck with the pre-installed MasterTracker cart... | |

| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii 520W into 8ohm 830W into 4ohm 1210W into 2ohmCheers George That would be a killer amp for my near-field listening set-up, George. In all seriousness, I've had nearly zero exposure to high-end equipment. It intrigues me, but it's also beyond real... | |
| Purchase breaks well within 30 days You're a lawyer, and asking this question? It's used merchandise, an "as is" sale, unless specifically stated otherwise. The idea that the seller should offer a remedy better even than the manufacturer is absurd. Every unfortunate thing that happ... | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Thanks, Erik, I appreciate it. I assume the flip side of that is that some amps do well, i.e. double their power when the impedance is halved, others fall short. I don’t begin to understand enough about amplifier design to know the whys and why no... | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Can you elaborate on your statement regarding the mid-bass, Erik. I'm not sharp enough to know what you're getting at. Maybe related, maybe not, but one of my first impressions with my amp was how well it took control of the bass. Admittedly, it w... | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii The Luxman L-590 isn't low powered. The 30watts is presumably the Class A rating, the amp will produce 90watts/channel into 8 ohms, according to a couple of reviews where it was actually measured. Nearly doubles that into 4 ohms. | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Do your own research on this, but I believe Music Direct has a pretty liberal return policy. That being said, I bought my L-590AX without having heard one. Zero regrets, it's amazing. | |
| Pass Labs int 60 vs. Luxman 590 uX ii Are you asking about the Luxman 590, or the 509? | |
| What is the ball park value of a pre restored Marantz 2275? I went to eBay and took a look. Units that were in great cosmetic shape, working, but had not been rebuilt, were around about $900 to $1300. Professionally refurbished ran from about $1300, up to $2200. Ones that looked like they’d had a lifetime ... | |
| Luxman 505uXlI vs Cary SLI-100 You have the amps and speakers, the room, presumably the music, but want strangers on the internet to choose the combo that sounds best? This couldn't make any less sense. | |
| Who are your three favorite female singers? Eva Cassidy. After her, I'd have a hard time choosing the other two. Norah Jones, Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, Ricki Lee Jones, Linda Ronstadt, Chrissie Hynde, Amy Winehouse, Joan Osborne,... | |
| Your most indispensable "tweak"? Well, after 30+ years in construction, and the hearing loss that results from that, I'm going to say "cupping my hands behind my ears". Not kidding, try it. Sound-stage instantly becomes all-encompassing, details are greatly expanded. First time I... |
