| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Hdm - I appreciate the information. It will be interesting to hear what Chris Feickert says. Since you've done the research, who would be good resources for me to contact to confirm whether or not these arms are one and the same? Combined with the... | |
| Recommendations for auto or semi auto turntable B&O Beogram series. Look for the 4500, 5500, 8500, or 9500. In addition to the convenience of auto cueing, lift, and shut off, they offer linear tracking and no alignment of cartridge, VTA, or azimuth is required (just tracking force). In the ... | |
| Promitheus Ref TVC and RWA Sig 30.2 Power Amp You would typically like to see a higher input impedance. The number given to you by NAD, 20k ohms, is a bit on the low side. Since the Promitheus uses transformers this will be less of an issue versus resistors, but still to be considered. The in... | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Robm1 - I'm thinking of getting the Feickert so any additional information on the differences versus the standard 10.5 would be valuable. You can email me offline if you like. Thanks | |
| Turntable on a $5k budget? If you are intent on jumping right into the vinyl foray and have the budget to support it then go for the Galibier Serac package that includes the Artisan tonearm, Discovery tonearm cable, and either Dynavector 20X or 17D3 cartridge. For about $45... | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Assuming the PMG and Feickert arms are built to the same specs then this would be a great deal.Is there any evidence to suggest they are? | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ The Feickert tonearm is a built to spec 10.5" Jelco that is S shaped and has an adjustable head shell. If I recall the cost was around $1100 USD, but purchased with the Feickert table $1000 USD.The Feickert table was used in both of the Avatar Aco... | |
| Joule Electra LA-150 MK3 vs MK2? Isanchez, nice system. I'm not surprised you are getting the sound you describe from your system. I am sure the Joule is contributing to it. There are noticeable differences between the LA-300 versus both versions of the LA-150 and LA-100 MkIII.BT... | |
| Best Phono Stage within 2000 $ Agree on the Feickert azimuth adjustment software. I received a demo of the software from Dr. Feickert at CES and will be getting the software when I purchase his tonearm. The education I received on azimuth adjustment was very valuable. While the... | |
| Joule Electra LA-150 MK3 vs MK2? That is the room. I agree the sound was more authoritative at CES vs. RMAF. Whether it was the speakers, LA-300, room or a combination of those (the amps and CDP were the same ones used at RMAF) components is the real question. | |
| Joule Electra LA-150 MK3 vs MK2? Rafael, I sent you a private email. | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre The Criterion was definitely plugged in, no battery power.The room sounded very good today. I ran through a couple of my test CDs and found the system to be less bright and more neutral. Bass was very good too. A very even presentation with a larg... | |
| $5000 integrated budget: Please help me choose.... Heard the new AMR 777 integrated at CES this week. Very nice and features tube preamp section with solid state amp section. Price is around $3500 new. | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Front end is DCS. I will get back to you on whether it was running on battery power or not. I asked Jeff yesterday and didn't get a straight answer, so I'll assume it was not. I was in the room today but focused more on listening.The set up is ver... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre Heard it today and spoke with Jeff. The wiring is Nordost but quite frankly don't remember the front end as I was there early morning and heard a lot of stuff today. I'll be going back tomorrow.The sound was very good. Much more impressive than th... |
