| Audiogon "RECORDINGS TO DIE FOR" list Wow, I am up to 4 pages in Word and not half way through the list. OK, here are some I have loved (sorry for the repeats)Keith Jarrett - Koln Concert, Arbor Zena (just awesome, maybe my all time fav...)Debussey - Trois NocturnesPatsy Cline - Great... | |
| Which LP pressing is best? Thanks, Rushton. That helps - even knowing the term "labelographies" helps. | |
| Which LP pressing is best? Thanks, all. I guess there is no one who has encountered a chronology of pressings anywhere.... | |
| $800 Cartridge Shootout and Upgrade Path This is a really good thread, with a lot of detailed analysis and clearly reasoned opinions. Combine this with another current thread on VTA adjustment, and a nubie like me almost wishes he hadn't heard how much better analog sounds! Anyway, it's ... | |
| Analog only system help Thanks Edle, but I think the SF's are too inefficient for the Meishu @ 9 watts. And my wife is committed to the SF's because of visuals.... | |
| would you bother? I bought my TT when CD's were just becoming the rage 20 years ago or so - and I never attained the magic I heard in the showroom, so I went along with CD's. Then finally, a pro set the arm properly, sold me the right cartidge, and I had upgraded t... | |
| Understanding impedence matching Hi Subaruguru,The only problem is that I am probably going to buy it over audiogon, so home audition may not be an option.... I had another thread earlier asking people who have the same speakers what amps they have found works well, and of course... | |
| Why is the trend to make separate phono stage Ok, here's a basic question. (I hate being so ignorant!) If you're only going to play vinyl, do you need a pre-amp, or are there phono stages that can operate independently of the preamp? This is the direction my playing is going, as I just can't ... | |
| Understanding impedence matching Thanks for asking, Subaruguru. I am tracking, except for when I'm not! The main upshot of all of this is that I am going to want to find some coherent, organized introduction to these issues, as I would like to pull back the veil a little. Any sug... | |
| Understanding impedence matching Thanks everyone. I have begun my inquiry into Ohm's law and its implications. I've gotten the E=IR concept down, but as to the implications, well I gotta keep studying. But since there is some conviction from you that understanding this does, in f... | |
| Understanding impedence matching This is so cool. I'm all over google trying to make sense out of what you good people are saying. It's slow, it's slow. Clueless, you say the point about impedence is that I need to figure out what the goal is, transferring voltage or current. Can... | |
| New amp for SF Electra Amator II Keithr - now that I know that tubes are in play, the field opens up everywhere. Do you have the II's and/or the v12i? If so, what is your impression? | |
| New amp for SF Electra Amator II Fatparrot - thanks - or maybe not! Damn, I hate it when the answer slams the budget, but I am confident that the M-60's would be great. But finding them in my price range will take ... patience. I can't verify the impedience for the II's, but you ... | |
| New amp for SF Electra Amator II Rrsclyde: Beautiful! Thanks very much - this is what I had hoped would be the case. Happy listening. | |
| How to find better pressings Many thanks to you for the help and input! I am happy scouring the web and found my first hit - a Japenese pressing of Keith Jarrett's Arbour Zena, that I ordered. |
