| Zu or Harbeth Sorry to butt in, but Tvad, I remember reading you were speaker shopping, did you buy the audio notes? I think Bob Neil of Positive Feedback has done excellent writing on the Spendor>Harbeth>Audio Notes, and he says that's where I'll end up.... | |
| Zu or Harbeth Phil, does your Zu assessment pertain to the Essences as well? Maybe when the Zu boys make their new statement speaker then it'll really be something. | |
| Time to move on from my old SOTA ? Ditch it! there are far far better tables out there...there are many things from the 80's that were very popular that no longer hold water, that table being one of them. Sorry to sound harsh, but it's how I hear it...you have a nice arm and cartri... | |
| Who asked for this? Sorry, Viridian, NOT a good analogy...very interesting indeed... | |
| Speakers for Luxman L 505 u I would hope you've tried different speaker placement. I keep hearing the Luxmans are great with bass, but that seems like something's amiss.Unless you're just ready to change speakers in general.I've been hearing great things about the Luxmans an... | |
| Who asked for this? Chayro, I'd say quite a few, they tend to sell very very well. It doesn't interest me, I don't have that kind of money. But many people do. I've heard a few Blue Notes, and yes, they do sound great.Since you don't own any I'm not sure what your ra... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? HI Jabas, care to share about what others you've tried?Don't be such a tease!how old is your lux 550a II?ThanksChas | |
| Leben RS-30EQ phono stage I've heard it, loved it from what I could tell. It was with an all leben system, my first listen to one. Highly seductive, plays music very very well. Looking forward to a stepup from leben...then I might take the plunge.Look at reviewer Jeff Day'... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Merlocpm, there's a nice guy on here who has, maybe he'll chime in....not sure about the 505u, but he has the 550 and 590, which he seems to love...great bass, tone. | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Bongo, have you heard the other Luxman tube integrated also, the 38u? I've been hearing raves about it as well.Not cheap, $6k. Like the Leben 600, but with phono stage as well. I've also heard great things about the two Class A Luxman's, although ... | |
| Record Cleaning Backlash Chayro, I think you should always do a rinse. I didn't for years, just used whatever fluid with the brush and then sucked it off...Now, I use whatever fluid, I like the AI #15 best of all, and then rinse with their (AI) water..doesn't seem any mor... | |
| Dynavector XV1's vs XV1't I've heard em both and they're both wonderful....either way you can't go wrong...the t version doesn't sound like a cartridge, just wide open music.... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Nice to hear.Plus, he also carries Luxman and Lavardin! now if only he had Leben.... | |
| Anyone using Lavardin? Thanks!very muchChas | |
