| are audiophiles different than non audiophiles ? There are guys out there building catapults to chuck watermelons, for god's sake. We aren't that different. Except, they have a much more realistic goal. | |
| Direct Tv music channels ans use in audio system Actually, FIOS does have the advantage in available bandwidth but that doesn't mean the content providers will make use of it. Those boxes are capable of close to 1G bandwidth if the service provider opens them up. CATV is limited by the time slic... | |
| Are you too old to be an audiophile? That's right. It's all pointless. There is no use in worrying about life, you won't survive it anyway. | |
| Are you too old to be an audiophile? You miss one very important fact, Doug. You don't have any experience with anything at any age over 48. Get there and then come back and tell us how things are. ;-) | |
| Direct Tv music channels ans use in audio system Those channels are ok for background music, but there never has been any quality. Hell, we can hardly get any 1080 video. Cable is no different. | |
| Are you too old to be an audiophile? Dopogue, I was thinking the same. Doug, how old are you? If we were to take your stance one step farther we should all give up in our early twenties 'cuz we all know it is nothing but downhill from there. ;-) | |
| Are you too old to be an audiophile? I don't think you ever get too old to tell someone else what they listen to sucks. Isn't that the real audiophile hobby? ;-) | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics That's right! The new LCR. Another Talea owner nearby is supposed to be getting the demo unit sometime in the future. He also owns the A90, so he and I will be looking forward to what you learn. | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics Seriously, though. I get around 10Hz by the calculation. 11g effective weight, compliance of 10, mass of 12.6g. However, I find it more interesting to actually listen to the combination when it gets to this level of performance with tonearms and c... | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics I'll see your dealer and EE, and raise you a master's degree. :-) | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics Mark, I apologize. You certainly did. My frustration got the better of me. | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics Not in my sytem, Mark. I certainly can understand some preferring the A90, or any other cart, to the XV-1s. Sorry, it isn't the combination of the TP and XV-1s causing stridency issues. | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics P.S. I have no commercial interest in Wheaton. | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics XV1 is too heavy for the TriPlanar and gets ragged up topLOL! Some one either depends too much on resonant frequency numbers, doesn't know how to set this combination up with proper selection of the supplied counterweights, or there is another iss... | |
| Ortofon/Dynavector ? cartridge characteristics Dynavector dealer disclaimer upfront. Glai blew through the budget so this discussion is moot. :-)But I'm not sure if I would recommend dyna to Dr_John, based on Shindo and the type of music he listens to. I find the suggestions in the OPs origina... |
