| Vinyl Accessories - Skip It or Buy It! Anyone try the Degritter? It looks like the best record cleaner I've seen in a while. | |
| Vinyl Accessories - Skip It or Buy It! @slaw can u post or pm a link to the my mat for us? | |
| Room Acoustics With Vaulted Ceiling Thanks, @jriggy Not the best at describing these things but the high point is at the middle of the longer dimension with the peak roughly directly above my listening position. Happy to PM about the 360. | |
| KEF Blade -- how good are they? I heard them at a show in a large room—didn’t do a thing for me but I’m not often impressed by systems I hear under show conditions. | |
| Room Acoustics With Vaulted Ceiling Thanks guys—a mixed bag so far I’ll have to see how it goes. Someone once said or wrote “big room, big problems” and I have been “blessed” throughout my journey to have consistently small or medium size rooms despite moving my system at least eigh... | |
| Conrad Johnson and Herron comparisons @saika2 Unless Keith told you that directly I question your assertion that discontinued models are not eligible for revision upgrades. While sometimes parts availability can be a limiting factor, Keith’s product support is unrivaled IMHE. That sai... | |
| Conrad Johnson and Herron comparisons Hey guys FYI I just put my VTSP-3A R03 up for sale here and on the USA Audiomart. After careful consideration and saving my pennies I’m going to try the new 360. Reach out if you have any questions. | |
| Need preamp recommendation Sorry, @jjss49 but I disagree. As much as I like and admire Dan Wright I have owned both his LS100 and LS36.5. Neither came close to the performance of the Herron. The performance gap was not entirely attributable to personal preference or system ... | |
| Phonostage recommendations under $3K A Herron VTPH-2 just came on the A'gon in your price range. It is being sold by TMR--I purchased from them and had a good experience. | |
| Need preamp recommendation FYI/Shameless Plug: I am going to try the Herron 360 so recently posted my VTSP-3A (R03) for sale here and on the USA Audiomart. | |
| Which SS amplifier has similar sound as the LTA amplifiers?.... Dan—LTA amps are not like other tube amps. Almost no heat and extremely long tube life. Plus—incredible sound. Really truly the best of both worlds. | |
| Review: Herron Audio VTSP-3A (RO3) Linestage Update: After sitting on the fence reluctant to part with my VTSP-3A (R03), I have decided to bite the bullet and give Keith's VTSP-360 a spin. For those who may be interested, I've posted the VTSP-3A for sale over on "that other site". I'll circl... | |
| turntable recommendations I think the Feikert Volare/OL Silver is a great combo. I have heard it (albeit in an unfamiliar system) and it checked a bunch of boxes. Simple, elegant, well built with a really good arm for the money. I would suggest mounting a Charisma Audio MC... | |
| If you could, what live performances would you enjoy re-living? Lucinda Williams and Gurf Morlix at Maxwell's in Hoboken. Two guitars, 20 people in the audience. Remember it like it was yesterday. Whiskeytown at Mercury Lounge in 1997. Just making a name for themselves. Put on a great show. Easy to see Ryan Ad... | |
| Question/Advice About Isolation Feet for Speakers I second the Stillpoints. I'm using Ultra SS which come with carpet piercing spikes as an option for those in your situation. (Though the folks at Stillpoints will tell you that they prefer the hardhats to the spikes in this application). Plenty o... |
