| Need a shipping box for Technics SL-1200-MKII UPS is the best and they charge an arm and a leg because they are worth it and they will make good (only if they package it) if there is damage so thats the only way to ship anything you care about. They are good - bubble wrap everything so you ca... | |
| Cleaning records. How often really? New (or used) get cleaned on my VPI rig (new gets a 2 step process, used can get up to 4 steps.... put record in new mofi sleeve. I destat, demag and dust every time I play. Probaly have to clean it again after 10-15 plays... maybe. | |
| Roon I-Pad App I have a brand new ipad pro and a pretty sweet PC but could not get roon to play nice with JRiver and slimserver on my PC. Tidal integration sounded great for the 4 minutes it worked. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Matt - sorry for delay (Happy Thanksgiving). They were the Lawrence Cello's. It played 'music', Matt. Real music. You had to see Jeff smile. | |
| Aesthetix Rhea signature phono stage I have the Rhea (not signature). When I got it (used, on agon) the tube rush drove me crazy, coming off a solid state phono stage BUT it was a tube rolling issue. When I got my NOS Sylvanias (12AX7) and Amperex 6922 - all the tube rush went away (... | |
| Favorite two CDs to listen to? I'll take a bite. First would be Hugh Laurie's "Didn't it Rain". My 2nd is a compilation made by Roger Sanders and sent to me with either my new 10Ds or Magtechs (cant remember), last year. On the CD was some pretty awesome music I had never heard... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Lawrence audio. Best of show, forme. You could dance around the bass strings. Sounded like home. That last breath that we chase is handed to us by Jeff Rowland. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD ...and the new Jeff Rowland Daemon sounded absolutely STUNNING at the NY Show yesterday. Best of sound for me. | |
| Rowland's new integrated amp I heard it yesterday at ther NY Audio show (I think Lawrence speakers) and he had best of sound, easilly. the strings sounded like strings and the vocals sounded HUMAN. | |
| FM reception and your antenna I have an FM aerial in my attic (the thing is a monster) hung from the rafters by string, its 12 feet by 6 feet or so and pointed towards NYC. I also have an FM antenna amp (Magnum Signal Sleuth). The few stations I get, sound as good as my tape o... | |
| How important is bass to you? The bass frames the rear of your soundstage. It lays the foundation. | |
| clearaudio turntables vs vpi I have a hopped up VPI TNT Jr (have about 8 grand in it) and would get rid of it for a clear audio ovation. I am quite intersted in the magnetic bearing. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Not necessarilly, audiolabyrinth. Heres my take. I truly believe that when you put the proper system together, there are no words to describe what you hear (or, what you experience), just the emotion it makes you feel. My very neutral stseym portr... | |
| Best SACD: Modwright OPPO vs Esoteric X03 series? it would not even be close between those two players. All you need to do is liten to them both. The Oppo is good for the money. The esoteric is good, regardless of the money. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD To me, its all internal. A warm sound makes me feel, well, warm. Cozy, comfortable, back to all the good things that I may have ever known. A rich sounds is, to me, more adventurouse. A tad more involving. Maybe a little more dynamic, but not mean... |
