| Do you think you need a subwoofer? Halcro,I know what you mean. The experience has been fantastic for me, my system and listening enjoyment. A huge step closer to that holy grail!;~) | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Isanchez,Excellent, the Pro 3600 cetainly seems a worthy addition and - assuming I can find some way to try it out first - I will pursue this in the future. I might be able to locate a spare AT666 (with automatic pump) and Jeweltone Crystal Stabil... | |
| Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which? Hi Bvdiman,Your amp's sound phenomenal and I'd love to hear that set up. The Essential 3160 is a bespoke phonolinepre and I believe that some technological aspects of FM Acoustic's approach influenced aspects of its designers' thinking. You can fi... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Isanchez,Fantastic. The testing of mats is a rewarding pastime when you notice the differences they offer. I remember my time with several of those illustriate mats. I do wonder though (technically naively) if the aluminium stabilizer (as opposed ... | |
| Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which? Bvdiman,I agree wholly and maybe those that have now had an opportunity to listen to some of the more high end sources can also comment on this!:~) I've never managed to hear the Essential 3160 with an FM Acoustic power amp but the combination sho... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Isanchez,Wholly agree and am pleased to see that we find ourselves to the nearly same place just by trial and error and our own listening. I've been doing a bit of research myself about clamps etc. I contrasted my mat and clamp option with some no... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Isanchez,Many thanks but I had dealt with Gunther at some length following the first failure of the Alpha power supply. Sadly, his personal problems at the time meant that this discourse was particularly unhelpful. I have now had the actual UK ret... | |
| best phono preamps? Mothra,I think you raise an interesting point, which leads back to our differing listening priorities and critical questions of fidelity. With my phonolinepreamp you do not hear it as such. Similarly with my integrated satelites and subs. What you... | |
| best phono preamps? Downunder,I see your point but I think that such small differences really do count. Obviously, to hear the differences between records initself suggests the importance of the phonolinestage: especially when you reflect on the minute mechanical imp... | |
| best phono preamps? Topoxforddoc,Also coming from England and knowing Graham, I think the Tron is one of the interesting options in its price range and for the tube based designs. It will really come back to what Clavil wants his preamp to do and how much he can affo... | |
| best phono preamps? Downunder,I'm not certain what Raul and Jose charge now as I've had mine for quite some time. Also I do know that they were talking about a remote control option but felt this was a major challenge as introducing the necessary components could hav... | |
| best phono preamps? Clavil,Given the point made by Downunder, are you seeking a phono preamp for your current cartridge or one that will get the very best out of any cartridge that you might ever own or buy? I mean here not only any MC but also any MM cartridges!Also... | |
| Our home system: How good it is? Apologies,That should of course have read: "Bach's Fugue..." | |
| Our home system: How good it is? Learsfool,If it helps, I think the RD Hardesty article that is cited by Raul on the second page of the sub thread (07.02.05) really explains a lot about improvements in the top end and entire frequency range. I can say that if you play something w... | |
| Dyscoveries on Dyna, Denon, Supex, Technics,FR,Ik Dear Raul,Thanks although my description did not intend to question either fact! My statement was meant to be read as: "yes it is a unipivot (given in the arms formal definition) and it does perform well on the XV1s". That was my point and the rea... |
