| Can anyone compare the Shure v15VxMR and Denon103 Try the DL103R; different stylus shape, better sound according to most that have tried it. I use a 103R and it sounds very, very nice; quite different from my Dynavector DV20XH. The R model is about 240 landed from audio cubes in Japan. That makes... | |
| Tascam CD-RW 5000 recorder Test it first; they had software issues in some models. I have read they might not read newer CDR discs; ie, 16x, 24x and so on. I bought one cheap and had all sorts of problems. I would only buy one of these used from a reputable pro audio dealer... | |
| Adcom GFA 535 II A used PS Audio 2C or 2C Plus or the Elite Integrated Amplifier is a much better choice than the adcom for about the same money; ie, 150/175. The Sound Well in Berkeley has an inspected and warrantied 2C for 200; worth the extra money as you get a... | |
| Audio Note Soro from 97, still current? Phil,I believe they changed the type of output tube in the late 90s. I would suggest you put your question to Peter Qvortrup at Audio Note UK. You can find a contact on the AN UK site.Carl | |
| best turntable for 500$ or less The used systemdek 900x with a decent arm at 360/bo looks very good. Add an acrylic platter and a modded rega arm and you are off to the races. Stock arm would be quite serviceable.Has the original box, too; such a deal. At that price there is roo... | |
| I'm setting up a Denon 61F turntable Perhaps a Denon cartridge; they sound good for the price/performance and the price is right. The DL160 is a high output coil that can be had for a bit under 200 delivered from audio cubes in japan. | |
| Why tube amps are rated so low, still don't get it The Moniter Audio speakers appear to be a bit more tube friendly based simply on the nominal impedance. If you want truly tube friendly speakers that will work on a variety of tube amps (from the lowest power to higher power amps) I would suggest ... | |
| Cartridge Angst-Help A new SME M2 is a pretty good value even at retail if one cannot find what one wants used. And it can be had in 9, 10, and 12" lengths.There were a few used Morch arms at good prices on Audiogon. I would think that would go well with the TD125. | |
| Opinions greatly appreciated sounds like a shure v15, current model, is the cartridge for the light mass dual arm....hard to beat the price and performance and it works well with a low mass arm | |
| Opinions greatly appreciated A Denon DL103 or DL103R would make a wonderful moving coil cartridge and the prices are just under 200 for the 103 and about 240 for the 103R. Both should work fine with your Creek MC preamp.Only question is if they would work optimally with your ... | |
| PS Audio HCA2/PCA2 vs. Krell FPB 200 C/KRC combo? Levinson 27.5 amplifiers sound very, very good and run only moderately warm. I never had any heat problems with my 27.5 running it to a pair of Thiel CS 2.2 speakers. The amp never broke a sweat. Very, very powerful for its rated 100 watts. | |
| Different Tonearm and Table advice...short, short The CM2 is very expensive. The CM1 arm, which is less than a grand US, was given a huge thumbs up from the TNT Audio people. That is the arm I contact Mr Morsiani about. This arm and the Morch appear to be good units for either the Scheu or the Te... | |
| Teres/Scheu-Help I posted this on another Teres related issue.I received information from Hart at Audio Advancements in the past ten days that Hart just received 11 new Premier Mk II kits from Scheu. In other words, Audio Advancements continues to have a current r... | |
| best sub $1000 receiver for music? Check out an Arcam AVR200...slightly over a grand....a used unit is much less. Excellent two channel sound and full home theatre capabilities. | |
| Vintage Turntable: AR Es-1 vs Denon DP-60L A well implemented direct drive table sounds fine. Some of the best tables ever sold utilized direct drive. The Cotter used a Denon direct drive motor as its drive unit. The Goldmund Studio (and Studiette) were direct drive units and considered gr... |
