| Transparent Cable comparisons across both level and generation Thanks everyone for your ideas. Got the Super Gen 5 speaker cables connected last night and have been listening a lot since. I have not gone back to see how the difference compares but just from listening it does seem as if I am getting everythi... | |
| Transparent Cable comparisons across both level and generation Thanks, jafant! I just found an 8ft pair of Super Gen 5 yesterday for a good price so got those on order and the dealer is seeing what Gen 5 Super balanced IC he can get for me. He had one 1m pair and I need another plus a 5m. Excited for the... | |
| Transparent Cable comparisons across both level and generation Excellent...thanks for that! | |
| Transparent Cable comparisons across both level and generation @docknow Thanks for that insight. In my example, purchasing 20 year old Ultra speaker cables for $1400 vs new Gen 6 Super cables for $2200....would be better to get the new Supers, correct? The Ultras I saw are 4 generations behind the Gen 6. ... | |
| UPDATE. ARC REF 6 upgrade to 6SE. Oh that is great to hear for their service turn around. Sending positive vibes to MN for that team for whoever is taking over the helm. I didn't realize they were actually doing the upgrade, I thought they just provided a new 6SE and then the 6 ... | |
| Wilson Audio Sasha I or 2 ? @mmbl622 Hello there...what did you decide on? I have Sophia 1 with ARC REF gear and am getting the itch to upgrade. I heard some Sasha 1 at a friends house and was very impressed. He has modest SS gear, don't recall brands. I really wanted Al... | |
| Cartridge Advice Please The Kleos offered a very nice and detailed presentation but was a bit too 'in my face' and a bit bright compared to my Purple Heart. | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @mytthor appreciate the referral of Steve and Ray for service. I had read somewhere of others having a good experience with them. A near mint Lyra Kleos came up for sale on USAM yesterday at a great price so I bought that. Lyra has been a ... | |
| What record cleaner is the most bang for the buck?? +1 for squeaky clean It's not fancy and a bit awkward to leave out due to having a small shop vac involved but if you are going to make cleaning a once in a while event where you get everything out and clean one evening and then put it up it woul... | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @russellrcncom Are you using this as the stock arm on an RP10 or modified a non-Rega turntable? Don't suppose it matters....right? Just curious I should have included Rega RB3000 in the title as many have commented on choices on other brand arm... | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @lewm - I know we have to take online commentary with a chunk of salt but I have been in sales for all of my life and pride myself on empathy and being open-minded. As I mentioned it was very disappointing how responsive and helpful the SS group ... | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @audphile1 - you do bring up a good point that I have recognized and worked with in the past. I don't recall how the actual dimensions compared when I had the Aphelion 2 but I did buy the spacer set and adjusted the arm from the base. I did not ... | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @tomic601 - I have seen immediate improvements from better isolation for my turntable and subwoofers but have not tried anything under the components. You may be on to something here as I know I am currently running a fabulous cartridge so maybe ... | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @mijostyn - Just checked hifishark and an Eminent EX sold 3 weeks ago in 2 days for $2500! Just a little late on my inquiry, but will definitely be watching for the next one. | |
| Cartridge Advice Please @jjss49 - Thanks, will do some research on dynavector @tablejockey - Good idea to keep AT in mind. I see lots of positive things and big fans of their high end cartridges. That ART-20 does seem like a good candidate to keep an eye out for a de... |
