Good Sound Quality From 10 Inch Records? Nope.My experience is the material used on those 10" is different from the vinyl from the mid-50s onwards used on LPs.It seems much more brittle and easier to scratch, hence the poorer sound on average. | |
Speaker Choice for Almarro 318B I have the 318B and just ordered a pair of the Hornshoppe Horns (www.hornshoppe.com). The price is $850 delivered from Ed Shilling who makes them.They have gotten good reviews on 6moons and other sites. Srajan at 6moons also thought the Horns and ... | |
New Cart? Best all around performer...MM or HO I am running a Rega P5 with a Dyna 20XH and the Graham Slee Era Gold and am happy with it.The only comment I would have is that my CD player seems to play a little louder than the analog rig. Not necessarily sure why and doesn't make a difference.... | |
I want more from my Rega P5 I am running the P5 with a Dynavector 20XH and a Graham Slee Era Gold phono preamp. This is my first vinyl rig, so I have no basis for comparison, but I am happy. I haven't checked out the TT PSU, but am interested in seeing if it significantly im... | |
Tubes for Eastern Electric Minimax I posted this a while ago:Here are my limited thoughts on the tubes I tried:NOS Amperex 6922 PQ Gold Pin US Version White Lettering: Most expensive and the clear winner. Clean, detailed across the spectrum, great soundstage and depthAmperex Bugle ... | |
Rega P25 vs VPI Scout I would have gotten the Scout had I not had 2 young kids. Instead I got the P5 which is a bit cheaper but has a real dustcover. The thought of my Dynavector 20X cart stuck in a glob of playdough was enough for me to leave my purism at the door for... | |
Sound Quality of New Blue Note Jazz LP Reissues I would agree with Mlkiz's observation.I don't think it is limited to those BN reissues's either. The Columbia ones I picked up are thin sounding too. The vinyl was flimsy and thin, I think I could see my turntable platter through the spinning rec... | |
battling the pops and clicks As a newbie getting into vinyl (just picked up a Rega P5 and a Dyna 20XH), I think that all the posting on this site and AA are very misleading regarding how "dead-quiet" everyone's vinyl is after using their RCMs (I also have a VPI 16.5) and spec... | |
Good Quality Led Zepplin CD's do they even exist? $60 at yourmusic.com | |
Eastern Electric Minimax CD Yes. I have had one know for several months and still enjoy it. Tube rolling adds another level above the stock version. | |
Best budget $100 - 200 Phono Pre-amp? Graham Slee Gram Amp 2 Special Edition $199 right now on the 'Gon.Have heard/read very good things about it. Lists for $350 or so. | |
Suggestions for Tube CD with 6922's under $1500 I have a Eastern ELectric Minimax and have rolled it with Ameperex 6922 Holland PQs and its sound wonderful. | |
Tube cdp's and Tubed Output cdp's I agree with Sonicbeauty. I am running a tube CDP Eastern Electric Minimax with a Cayin-TA30 and love the results. I would say however that depending on you listening habits and music choices it may or may not be the best for you. I listen to a lo... | |
Want to experience tubed CDP? I would also recommend the Eastern Electric Minimax CDP. I have one. Great reviews on 6moons and Audio Circle. | |
AH Njoe Tjoeb 4000 or Consonance cd120 ?? I am running one with my Cayin TA-30 and enjoy it very much. |
