| Pro-Ject turntables Well, thank you very much Kiko65, I appreciate your words here. All of those units sound good to me. I'm willing to bet it's just a matter of strengths and weaknesses, and considering what I'm looking for sound wise. Happy listening to you too... | |
| Pro-Ject turntables Ohnofiasco: Sounds good. Thanks for the explanation. Much appreciated.Kiko65: Thanks for the recommendations. I will take those into consideration. Which arm(s) would you recommend for those? | |
| Accuphase a-70 is a good option? Exactly...or look into a P-6100, imo. | |
| Accuphase a-70 is a good option? One A-70 is *probably* enough...you just would have to try and see... | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion Cool, that sounds great. I have been replacing mine once every year, but I suppose this has been overkill...thanks for the info! | |
| Accuphase a-70 is a good option? Thanks, Nvp. Ok, I understand that. However, if he can afford it, why not? :)That sounds good. Interesting story. Those amps were run bridged or dual mono? I don't doubt the A-70 would sound better.Now what's your take on the P-6100? I think that ... | |
| Pro-Ject turntables Ok, cool. What did you like about it, per se. | |
| Vinyl ratings for audiophiles Love discogs. They're pretty accurate overall, and it's kinda cool reading all of that stuff in the dead wax I could care less about years ago. It certainly is a treat to find that nice clean original (especially a promo copy! nice!) and then play... | |
| Accuphase a-70 is a good option? Dynaudios are a bit difficult to drive...they need an amp that can do a 4 Ohm load. The Accuphase can do this, no problem. But maybe 2 in bridged mode might be better? Or a P-6100? | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Hi Simon,Ok, cool, XLO has been around a while. From what I've seen and heard, it's a great cable. Did you happen to try the Accuphase cables that came with the preamp? Most recently I've been looking at Neotech...I'm not 100 percent sure if it's ... | |
| Technics SL1200MK2 Cartridge Discussion Glad you agree Johnnyb53. It's really a good cartridge, and at the street price, (i buy via turntableneedles.com for new styli at $189.00 a pop.) it's a no brainer. It does take a while before the stylus to wear down. This is a well built unit, an... | |
| B&W 800D vs. 800Diamond on Accuphase amp Thanks for that Nvp. :D I can't imagine with those huge filter caps and transformer that the A-70 wouldn't be able to drive the B&Ws all the way to practically blowing your ears out. | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Hi Nvp,I know this is Audiogon, but I'd really rather buy new. However, if I go in person and inspect the unit (i would prefer a demo) then that might be alright.Thanks for the suggestion(s) | |
| Accuphase Power Amps Hi Simon,Congrats on the P4200 amp! I bet it sounds incredible, actually I know it does. If what I heard at CES 2014 was any indication, you're in for many, many hours of fine listening sessions. What cables are you using? | |
| Pro-Ject turntables Cool, and I forgot about Basis and SME...they're pretty big players, so there's more to add in the pot! lol. |
