| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Hchi,On my latest transaction from TRL I was suprised to find some extra goodies in the box. There were some music CDs from Paul's recording company and a bottle of Shine Ola, Brian's creation that is an excellent CD cleaner that leaves no residue... | |
| audio mirror dac Be advised the price on the website for the DAC is listed at $999.00. It sold on Audiogon for $499.00. Vlad usually runs the ads here pretty frequently. | |
| TRL Marantz Sa-14 Jsala,I'd be interested in your opinion of the sound post burn-in. I've been holding off trying it. | |
| SOTA table owners- getting upgraded Nrchy,I'd be interested to learn what you find out as well. Sirspeedy - Today I had to reposition my pump/power supply because of hum issues. I also am now using a PS Audio xSteme Statement pc on it and have removed the ground pin. Everything is n... | |
| Copper vs Hybrid differences My experience is silver is highly detailed and analytical, while copper is organic. I experimented with the hybrid Python bi-wire cable from Alpha Core which I did not like as much as their MI-2 copper cable in a single run. The hybrid was a littl... | |
| Need help with finding a new phono stage. C123666,Thanks for the suggestion. I went to the site and looked at the various models. The 1.5 is the one most similar to my needs. I think I may give Decware a shot along with the BAT and Eastern Electric, all of which I can get on 30 day trial. | |
| SOTA table owners- getting upgraded sirspeedy,Thanks for clarifying, I'll look around at some options. I have someone who makes great power cords for me and he may be able to take on this job as well. Also, I run my TT through a Running Springs Audio Haley. I just boxed up my PS Aud... | |
| Need help with finding a new phono stage. Actually that should have said budget is $1500 new/used. | |
| Need help with finding a new phono stage. Thank you all for the suggestions. Lots of interesting options.Larryi - I appreciate the explanation and this makes sense to me. I need to call Cary and see what the factory setting on the PH-301 is and how to change it. Then evaluate the results.... | |
| SOTA table owners- getting upgraded sirspeedy,Thanks for the suggestions. Prior to getting the SOTA back I bought a Joule Electra LA-200 preamp on auction. It came with a Music and Sound power cord. I am clueless as to the history of this PC, but since I was sending the Joule in for... | |
| SOTA table owners- getting upgraded I just got my Star TT back from SOTA after having it upgraded to a Nova. In the process I also got rid of the black base in favor of American Cherry - what a difference in look along with the much nicer acrylic dust cover. I just added a new Benz ... | |
| best CD player or DAC under $1000 Pete,Having something modified by TRL is like taking a leap of faith. When I was looking at upgrading my digital gear I ran across some posts here on TRL Sony 595 and Marantz SA-14 modded units. I decided to contact Paul Weitzel about modifying my... | |
| best CD player or DAC under $1000 I second the Audio Mirror D1 Signature DAC. I use it with my TRL Alesis ML9600 and it is extemely musical and very analog sounding. This DAC blows away those that cost 2 - 3 times as much and compares favorably to those that cost 4 - 5 times as mu... | |
| audio mirror dac Dennis,I'll probably start another thread when I get it back. Probably a few months off. I love the sound of the stock unit. However, I'm just curious to see how close Vlad comes to the TRL house sound. | |
| Damping Top of CDP Jack,Yes I heard that. I paid $10 for a set of 4. I can't remember what Mapleshade charges, but I thought it was $10 each. If you listen to Pierre you'd think he'd developed everything but the toaster. Tony |
