| $20 XLR cables that sound good I've had my share of cables in my system in all different price ranges. I do subscribe to the theory that there are differences in cables. However, I have come to the conclusion that while there are some excellent sounding high end (and high price... | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp The old TRL preamps had the dual 45 step Shallco volume controls which was nice for fine adjustment. My TRL battery preamp uses these. If I upgrade to the Dude the 45 step attenuators are coming along for the ride. | |
| $20 XLR cables that sound good I think that Ralph's statement about cables is also contingent on balanced equipment being fully differential and following a 600 ohm standard. Not all balanced designs are created equal in this respect. I believe there is a white paper on the Atm... | |
| Who has dumped the power conditioner? Elizabeth, that is an interesting solution. I too live in an apartment. When you mention isolated single 20 amp in the kitchen, you're talking about an outlet correct? I assume you then plug the extension cord into this outlet. If you could elabor... | |
| Lenco TT assembly in L.A. Brooks Berdan in Monrovia could be an option. They are very much into analog gear and even have a "museum" of classic analog stuff. They also have their own on site service tech. I'm sure they've mounted a few tonearms and aligned a few cartridges... | |
| Who has dumped the power conditioner? Rockinrobin, you might be surprised by the BPT. I had a non-filtering PPC with Oyaide SWO-GX outlets. I was very impressed by the results. | |
| tt isolation help Here's an example of a spring based platform. I know a couple of people who use them for their turn tables and like the effects:http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina25.htm | |
| Interconnect Inductance vs. Capacitance Call TRL and get a set of their interconnects. The Dude will easily drive these cables, which in their own right are very good. These cables were the original design behind the FIM/CRL cables. The only drawback is they are heavy and somewhat infle... | |
| SME 20/2 sound problem. Remedy suggestions needed Here is a discourse on MM cartridges. Might be worth checking out. It certainly inspired me. I'm now using a B&O MMC-2 and am quite happy.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1200430667 | |
| ModWright vs. TRL mods I live in Las Vegas, close enough to ship. If you're interested send me an email and we can discuss further. | |
| ModWright vs. TRL mods I still have my TRL modified DAC and battery powered solid state preamp. I sold the D-225 solid state amp to another TRL family member. It was actually Brian Weitzel's amp and it was in a huge wafer like black chassis. Not like the chassis they ar... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Guys, it's that power supply, the brothers at TRL have that down to a science, they made (past) / make (present) some of the best equipment on the planet, bar none.yep. | |
| ModWright vs. TRL mods I haven't compared the two players, but I have had TRL digital mods, pre amps, and amps. Send it to Paul, you won't regret it. You have a Dude right? Want more of the same? I thought so.BTW - look up Audiogon member quackfat and get some nice wood... | |
| Front End Advice Sought A used Bang & Olufsen linear tracking table that uses the MC series cartridges. These are very aesthetic, ergonomic, and nicely built tables. If you're lucky and can find one, the Beogram 4500 even comes with a built in phono stage. New cartri... | |
| VIP, SOTA & Oracle Turntables I had a SOTA Star Sapphire from the early 90's that was upgraded by SOTA to a Nova Series V in 2004. The benefits as a result of upgrading were such that IMO I could not have bought a comparable table for twice the price when factoring in the cost... |
