| Brinkman Balance Comparisons Rick,The Raven definitely does not have too much bass. If you hear a bass hump it will either be the tonearm match with the compliance of the cartridge. It could be the system but that you will know comparing it to a CD source you are familiar wit... | |
| Best Tonearm for Dynavector XV1s Raul,I prefered my Ikeda to the SME V w. the XV-1s but not by much. | |
| Audio Aero Capitole MKII & Stillpoints anyone? Get the Stillpoints. If you don't like them on your CD player they will definitely be good elsewhere in your system. I love them on my turntable but haven't tried them on my transport. I love that they can support heavy weights which few items can. | |
| Best Tonearm for Dynavector XV1s I don't want to sound contrary to opinion from some very rxperienced people on this thread, but wouldn:t an arm in 18-10gm range be better due to several new popular cartridges being low in compliance these days. I know people who are mass loading... | |
| Experience with Raul's Essential 3150 Fcrowder, Just promise me no more liquid cleaners on your cartridge prior to a visit from Raul. How was to body of the images/ palpability compared to your other phono preamps? I am curious to the musicality and emotional content as opposed to acc... | |
| Best rack for non-suspension turntable? Also, I can't do a wall shelf due to location. | |
| Best rack for non-suspension turntable? OKYou guys have me convinced in everything but spending the money. I am going to buy a big peice of granite or slate (as has been highly recommended by TW Acustic) stone and then sandwich it between 3 bike tubes and my current granite/composite sh... | |
| Step up above Acoustic Signature Mambo Andrew,I love my Raven and find it incredibly neutral. I don't know if you need to upgrade your table though. It will definitely sound different. I am waiting to find someone to compare the 2. Your table is a great table in many ways. It might ben... | |
| Any opinions on a new arm for NAS Hyperspace? Tom.Based on many friends experience and reviews the Morch 12 inch is supposed to be the better choice as compared to the 9 inch. I don't know much about your cartridge. That does mae a difference. Morch makes different armwands, (red, blue, yello... | |
| Is RAVEN TABLE that good over sme or Walker? Yes. It improved bass definition & dynamics even more. I don't understand it but it did work a substantial improvement. | |
| Dense, powerful sounding TT, decent top $3500 max? Look at the new TW Acustic Raven One. It is a bargain. | |
| Best SS amps with sound similar to tube amps Any good Mosfet amp will get close. How about a B&K ST140 the original version. Dirt cheap. | |
| Wilson WP 6 vs 7 for home theater Get the WP7s. A subwoofer is not a must but a very big plus. The WP6s are a slightly different family of sound. The WP7s to my ears are slightly more musical and will add up to more musical enjoyment. I assume you will use hometheater for concerts... | |
| 3 arms, 3 cartridges, one table, match them up. Ken,I am not sure but to start off I would put the Triplanar w. the Sonic & the Koetsu (oh how I love this cartridge) on the Dynavector. It needs a high mass arm. This is what I have found. Get the Hifi News & Record Review. Test resonant ... | |
| How Do You Measure VTF? Raul,Comparing the Jade to the Universe. Both great. I love the Jade. Setup up on the Schroder, I have incredible music. I am running at 1000. I might try the Ikeda but on the Schroder the 3 dimensionality is incredible. The ZYX handles leading ed... |
