Infinity RS 1B - How does the 'old dream speaker' compare to today's speakers? The speakers in your pic aren’t RS-1Bs. It’s the big IRS system. I owned the RS-1Bs for years, then traded them in for a set of IRS Betas, which I still enjoy and think is a much better speaker overall. | |
Audio Fantasies ronboco Top of the line dedicated room (think Mike Lavigne ) first ... Ugh - I'd never be happy with any system that required me to leave my house for an outbuilding. That would be just a nuisance to me. | |
Ultrasonic Record Cleaner 40 v 80 v 120 kHz I've been very pleased with my Klaudio US cleaner. Simple, one-button operation makes cleaning easy. For the rare occasion that I have a really dirty LP (such as one bought used or one that I'm cleaning for a friend), I clean it first in an origin... | |
A question about the Bryston BDA-3's HDMI inputs srinisr This TAS review of the BDA-3 seems to suggest that you can play sacd via the HDMI port The BDA-3 can definitely play SACDs from an HDMI input, although few SACD players offer that option. The Oppo that @mahler123 is using is one of... | |
Amp Stands - Wood or Stone kidbuck I bet you $1000. US that you would fail a blind test listening ... You sound like quite the hustler. You're not fooling anybody. We don't do gambling here. | |
Bridged NADs vs. Rotel Ra - 1062 Bridged amplifiers are a bit of a parlor trick. Yes, you get more "power," but distortion goes up and so does the ability to drive low impedance. It's never a first choice, imo. | |
A question about the Bryston BDA-3's HDMI inputs cooper52 ... can the BDA-3 interpret I2s data over an HDMI cable? I do not think so and do not think there is any standard for that. I am pretty sure the BDA-3 will only play DSD files through its USB input. | |
Isolation transformer question There are plenty of good reasons to use an isolation transformer including blocking DC, preventing ground loops and getting a quiet neutral. Of course the biggest variable is the quality of your AC in the first place, which is my case is just drea... | |
Straight tonearms without offset angle richardkrebs I have zero experience with underhung arms but, have followed this and companion threads with interest. Same here, @richardkrebs. It's a puzzle that these arms would seemingly defy so many of the principles we've come to accept, a... | |
Oppo Repairs?? harrylavo Anybody know of a service that is familiar with or work on Oppo's. After they folded they tried to set up a repair service, but any mention of it disappeared shortly after ... Have you seen this? "For customers inquiring about mode... | |
McIntosh MC312 vs. ARC Reference 150 stereo5 The McIntosh is NOT bass heavy and very midrange. Why do you sprout lies about McIntosh? That someone’s opinion differs from yours does not mean either of you is "sprouting" a lie. | |
VPI TNT 3 bhenry91 ... I have re-purposed a set of Sorbothane legs left over from a HW-19 Jr upgrade to a Mk III. I have used them to hold up an aluminum platform to sit the large TNT form-factor on. Should provide great isolation! That will cost nothi... | |
VPI TNT 3 The VPI TNT 3 is a great table - I've been enjoying mine since I bought it new around '95. Many users ditched the tri-pulley system, leaving holes in the plinth for which VPI sold plugs to fill. I've kept the tri-pulleys, but you can get great sou... | |
FEEDBACK HUM: Eversolo DMP A8 related It really isn't clear what's happening here. I typically think of hum and feedback as two different things. |
