| Analog vs Digital Confusion Rpg, I have recently added vinyl, and can recommend it. It's heaps of fun, and I never cease being amazed that a squiggle in a piece of plastic can deliver so much information. In order to get great gear at a reasonable price get second hand. The ... | |
| Van den Hul, The First Ultimate any good? The First is a wonderful interconnect with smooth detail throughout the frequency range and a natural sound lacking any edge. While there may well be more superficially exciting cables these are the ones to which I always return . Agree wholeheart... | |
| van den Hul 3T new cables Mountain and Cumulus Like you, I am a fan of vdH, and have found the First Ultimate to be my reference, and in fact could not pick a huge difference when compared to, even, Indras. I have since got 2 pairs of the Mountain, phono-pre and pre - power. Just can't fault t... | |
| Lyra vs. Lyra Apologies for the multiple post, perhaps the mod can combine them into one, I am unable to see or edit my posts as they are awaiting approval. | |
| Lyra vs. Lyra 11-20-12: SyntaxI compared the Delos with a lot of cartridges, I seriously think it is one of the best out there you can buy. Independent from Price.My sentiments exactly!! | |
| Lyra vs. Lyra Pierre, I'm happy for you I only gave my opinion, because I was considering exactly the move you made and was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to audition first. That was my impression, and of the vinyl nut who got me onto the dark side in... | |
| Lyra vs. Lyra Syntax, I suppose I should explain in more detail. I set VTA visually and by listening and was happy, then acquired the ability to measure, and found I was off the recommended VTA by 2 degrees, when I attempted to set it at the recommended value, ... | |
| SACD vs Analog Milpai, Well said! | |
| Lyra vs. Lyra 'Scuse me have I offended, the truth hurts sometimes. | |
| What is the "correct" VTA for the Lyra Atlas? Thank you all for your replies, I suspect I just lucked out the first time, and when I tried to set it scientifically I messed it up. The initial set up was with the head shell, as best as I could judge, parallel to the record. I suspect what all ... | |
| SACD vs Analog I have Stockfish DMM vinyl, with the accompanying hybrid SACD/CD of the same recording. This is great for direct back to back comparisons of the 3 formats. I have recently become hooked on Vinyl, but to be truthful, there is not a lot in the diffe... | |
| Lyra vs. Lyra I have a Delos and an Atlas, and have auditioned the Titan i in my system. I would contend that the Delos is very close to the Titan i, and this would not be a productive upgrade. The new generation Delos/Kleos/Atlas are in a different league from... | |
| Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight This has been driving me nuts over the last week. I'm trying to decide whether to get the Clearaudio Statement, Clearaudio Quadro, or the Stillpoint record clamp. Have had them around for auditioning, and I find the stillpoint the least appealing ... | |
| Handheld Recorders for Vinyl Recording The Korg MR-2 is the business. About $500.00, records to SD card in DSD 2.8 or double dsd 5.6, can have line in from phono stage, and free Audiogate software for converting to any format you want. I use predominantly 192/24. |
