| Is the Monarchy DIP effective? Yes on breaking in. Mine needed 100 hrs. Sounded better after first 40. Very bad out of the box. | |
| New dCS Puccini 1,21 version I couldn't see any mention of the upgrade on the dCS website. Did I miss it? Do I ask my dealer for it or can it be downloaded? | |
| Is the Monarchy DIP effective? Good luck Ozzy. Hope it works for you. Rpssb, ot sure what a Monarchy 48 is; the 24/96 should go right before the dac. | |
| amp for maggies 3.6 Roger Sanders makes great amps specifically for Maggies. I have heard Atmaspheres with Maggies and they sounded magical. | |
| Jazz must have pressings??? LA 4 is amazing. Surprised that are not more popular. I got my first taste of them earlier this year and just can't get enough. Not sure if it's on vinyl but The Yamamotto Trio has been an incredible joy for me. | |
| alternatives to vpi super feet? Stanwal, how does one level the table? | |
| Will Squeezebox Touch play iTunes from USB Drive? FWIW, my prior SB3 had a signal strength of 60-70% max (though never had a drop out). The Touch is constantly at 100%. Perhaps they upgraded the wifi receiver in the touch. (the SB3 still used in another room and at 57% costant) Good luck with it,... | |
| Is sooloos worth the money? I have a touch into the Berkeley dac and use ipeng app on an iPad for a remote, which let's me scroll through album art with a nice size touch screen. I love it and much cheaper than the sooloos. The interface is key and the iPad is awesome. | |
| Room correction altering soundstage I use a laser level on a good tripod to make sure my speakers are equidistant from the sweet spot. You should start the tact once the distances are precise. | |
| Upgrading a Scout II, Best bang for the buck?? Yes, but the only way to give the cartridge the best tracking path, to get the most out of it, is with the platter and ring. It's vinyl. Everything is related and depends on everything else. | |
| Help me pick a phono preamp There is a Whest.20 on sale here for $1,050 (no affiliation). Tough to go wrong with that for a grand. | |
| Upgrading a Scout II, Best bang for the buck?? I thought a grand, but okay. I would guess it would be a well worthwhile improvement. Hey, its Christmas. | |
| Should Equalizers make a comeback? Nooooo. I will give away my Beringer. | |
| Is the Monarchy DIP effective? Actually it kind of depends. I had posted in another thread that my SB3 into Benchmark dac was not improved with the DIP 48/96 upsampler. I figured the Benchmark upsampled itself and the extra step not necessary (and cost, and cables, though I had... | |
| How a turntable is like a gym membership I had purchased an Alesis Master Link for the very reason Cdc mentioned, to make great sounding compilations. Since I got a music server, the Masterlink sits unused, except to make a cd from vinyl. As great as it is, and it is great (Touvh, Berkel... |
