| Streamers - Cambridge Audio CXN (V2) or Blue Node 2i You ordered at just the right time! Now that Cambridge announced the CX Series 2 line, I suspect all the current CX stuff will be going on sale, and the CXN was the first of the bunch. Given that the CXN and CXC are apparently only getting a new p... | |
| Is the MoFI UltraDeck wit the MasterTracker cart the best TT solution @ $2,499? Best at $2500? That depends on your needs. I demoed the P6, 1200GR, and UD. I could have lived with any of them, but the UltraDeck is what lives in my system now. If I was a cartridge swapper, the GR would have been a no-brainer. If I was willing ... | |
| Cartridge Reccomendations for the MoFi Ultradeck Has anyone tried the Hana ML on the Ultradeck yet? I'm curious if that comb would be fitting and a decent upgrade when the time comes. I've honestly been very happy with the MasterTracker, so I have considered staying with that one potentially. | |
| MoFi Ultradeck or Technics 1200GR I'm assuming the OP likely made a decision by now, but I'll weigh in if others find this thread. I also demoed both at the same dealer, and we used my Sutherland 20/20 on both tables. I did not have the luxury of having the same cart in both, but ... | |
| MoFi UltraDeck/StudioDeck: How accurate was your cartridge alignment out of the box? My dealer did it for me with whatever tool he uses. He said he made some tweaks, but it was close. I should have taken note of the name of the tool/protractor. I was one of the largest and most advanced looking cartridge set up tools I've seen to ... | |
| Has anyone tried the Pro-Ject, VC-S, Vinyl cleaner? The VC-S2 looks really interesting! I'll have to keep an eye on that one since I'll probably be upgrading my RCM next year. | |
| FirstWatt J2 on its way Congrats! That should be a good combo. Looking forward to hearing your impressions once things are up and running. | |
| Horn Speaker Recommendations +1 for Volti. I was pretty impressed with those when I heard them, and I really enjoyed talking with the designer and builder (Greg Roberts) at Lone Star Audio Fest. He managed to make those speakers sound very good in a small hotel room, and they... | |
| Amp for JBL 4312 SE What are you thinking about for the budget and new direction? And how big is your room? I currently am running JBL Studio 580s with a Mastersound Duventi, and the Duventi gives my JBLs excellent base authority and really helped tame the top end wh... | |
| Suggestions for low powered tube amps for Zu Omens Do you have a budget in mind? Even a lower powered amp can stack up pretty quickly. | |
| Preamplifier for Quicksilver V4s I met up with a guy that had Quicksilver V4's and he had them paired with a PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium preamp. He said he really liked the dual mono and silver clad wiring. He took the time with his cable and component selection so everything in h... | |
| ***Is It Me Or Have Todays Modern Tubes Gotten REALLY REALLY Good*** I'm fairly new to tubes, but I'm REALLY happy with the stock tubes that came in my Mastersound. I've heard plenty of amps with rolled tubes as well. But at this point I'm not sure what I would even want to roll in to replace the current sound. Lik... | |
| AYRE VX-5 TWENTY- WHICH TUBE PREAMP MATCHS This is a slightly different combo, but I heard and deHavilland Ultraverve 3 preamp paired with an Ayre v6xe and I enjoyed that cobo. Personally I preferred going tube all the way through, but the Ayre kept a lot of the tube qualities and added so... | |
| Revel Salon 2’s (used) or new Magico A-3 (new) ?? @telescope_trade - Did you end up running the Revels with the Mastersound DueVenti for awhile longer? I'm curious what your longer term impressions were. | |
| Entry level turntable for my son For a 16 year old I'm going to give slightly different recs than for others. I think the idea of a used Technics is a great fit for the need. Super durable, easy to run, easy to move, and reliable. If you want to spend a little more and get him so... |
