| Reviewing the fabulous Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables @silversmith Thanks again, Jeff. I noted that my friend Winston has posted on your blog. The fact that Winston feels very highly about these cables says a great deal for them, IMO. I am also amazed that another user gave up a pair of Nordost Valha... | |
| Reviewing the fabulous Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables @silversmith Jeff, nice to see you on this forum and thank you for your reply. I still utilize the SF GH’s and I would be pairing the cables with them and probably my Jeff Rowland model 8T, which has the option to bi-wire on the rear of the amp. I... | |
| Second hand vinyl surface damage. Unfortunately and IME the only way to truly determine the condition of a record is to play it! I recently acquired what looked like a Mint copy of a little known Direct to Disc. This LP was graded Mint minus, and looking at the sleeve and the reco... | |
| Where in the US to send my Linn Sondek LP12. For the OP, it would make good sense to go with Thomas OK and have at least the Karousel bearing installed. I recently installed the Karousel bearing and it is a significant and worthwhile upgrade, highly recommended. | |
| Reviewing the fabulous Silversmith Fidelium Speaker Cables Just read the description that Jeff posted about the connection issues. Not sure if it would work when you have dual binding posts spaced closely together as I have on my speakers, but I do think it is great that Jeff is willing to attempt to solv... | |
| Linn LP 12 hum not coming from Bryton phono stage. @masi61 Good, sounds like you have a handle on the hum issue. The skating issue may be caused by an incorrect anti-skating force...what tonearm are you using? | |
| Linn LP 12 hum not coming from Bryton phono stage. @masi61 Sorry to hear of your continuing issues...this hobby can be more than frustrating at times!Since Thomas OK set up your table ( which with the new upgrades should be stellar), I would not expect any issues with the table. OTOH, hum is usual... | |
| Jazz is not Blues and Blues is not Jazz....... Blues and jazz are simply two different ways to express feelings...in music. Blues can have some Jazzy aspects, just like Jazz can have some Bluesy aspects..Neither have to be exclusive to one another, so long as the vibe is there...if this makes ... | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? @vtag If you bought your EA2's years ago, you need to adjust for inflation. The new EA2's are what price in today's world, adjusted for inflation? Then you can ask the question that you did! | |
| The Linn Karousel bearing. The new Karousel is priced at a point that does seem fairly reasonable...and for the increase in SQ that it brings...well that really tips the upgrade in the consumers favor, IMO.Like I noted before, the price may or may not include fitting. I had... | |
| The Linn Karousel bearing. @roberjerman With an attitude like that, I can understand why there would be folks in the dark ages...lol.@brf The upgrade costs $975- and may or may not include fitting...depending on your dealer. The kit contains a female bearing, a new inner p... | |
| The Linn Karousel bearing. Linn claim that the new Karousel bearing is not only incredibly precise, but also the fact that it is now far more rigidly attached to the sub-chassis is bringing about the results. It seems it is not just the increase in accuracy of machining, bu... | |
| RIP Lee Kerslake, Uriah Heep drummer passed at 73 Oh no! Not how I wanted to start my day at all...:0(RIP Lee Kerslake. | |
| Turntable power supply/motor’s role in SQ for belt drive TT LOL, same old naysaying non Linn owning members are at it again I see! OP, ignore those folk and concentrate on your Linn upgrade.I think IF funds allow, definitely go for the Radikal and the Karousel.The Radikal is a excellent speed control and t... | |
| New Sonus Faber Electa Amator 3...anybody heard these yet? @tonnesen I would bring those tube amps out of storage asap. I have found that a good tube amp with a good/great transformer can sound as powerful as a ss amp with considerably more power. SF's love tubes and I suspect you will be more than plea... |
