| Looking to Upgrade my CDP Doge6 from Pacific Valve. 2K, 30-day money back. | |
| Aging and Treble and Income? Albert - I hear what you're saying about hall perspective, but sometimes the 10th-row sound doesn't translate that well to recordings. I think when you have a live band to look at, it compensates for the lack of detail, but audio alone appears to ... | |
| Aging and Treble and Income? The highest note on the piano is at about 4K. If you can hear out to 10K, you're not missing much. I think many speakers are tizzed up to sell well in a store demo. People are always impressed by CD players and speakers with more "detail" and then... | |
| Upgrade from Rega P3-24 ..... Actually - before you do anything, I would try a Herbies mat. On my old music hall, it made a dramatic difference. The sound was much richer and fuller and it made the tt sound much more expensive. On my Linn, it was a bust. But Herbie offers mone... | |
| Ayon CD 1 acting up Contact USA tube Audio. They are very nice people. | |
| Cables more hype than value? Let me add something to the mix. I spent half my life as a professional musician and I was fortunate to get into the NY recording scene very early and I was doing demos in the 80s up at RCA studios and other famous ones as well. I thought I was pr... | |
| Cables more hype than value? A man goes to the doctor - the doctor says "I have terrible news. You have cancer, you have alzheimers" and the man says "well, thank God I don't have cancer". One of my favorite Gilbert Gottfried jokes. | |
| Magico V2 vs. Q1 I wouldn't consider the Mini2 to be 2nd best dude. There are a lot of speakers that sound better, but that's my opinion. The important thing is that you're happy with them. Dude. | |

| Magico V2 vs. Q1 Mini2 does not compare to Q1, IMO. | |
| Sundazed Records I bought a Sundazed reissue of the Vanilla Fudge that was nicely pressed, but sounded like it was cut from a bad cassette dupe. I would basically avoid them in the absence of a specific recommendation about a title. | |
| Upgrade from Rega P3-24 ..... Basically a sideways trade, IMO. I know you don't want to go for the MC phono stage, but sometimes we just have to spend more than we initially wanted to. OTOH, if I HAD to stay with the MM stage, I'd go with the Goldring Eroica High Output MC. | |
| Is there a perfect speaker? Of course there is no perfect speaker, but as your current speakers are all in the 3K range, there is a lot more to be had by listening to speakers in the 5-10K range. The Harbeth SHL5/Monitor 30s, Joseph Audio Pulsar, Rockport Monitors, to name b... | |
| I need help and phonostage suggestions I think the Linto is excellent and a great value on the used market - If you can find one. Seems that people sell tons of LP12s, but very few Lintos. |
