One turntable with two arms, or two turntables with one each - which would you prefer? best groove I nearly bought the hard to find JVC Victor CL-P3 Three arm-board plinth. Luckily, the seller showed a ruler in the photos, and I realized: in order to get a 3rd removable arm board on the left, and not be too wide overall, they move... | |
KT-150 Tubes- Push Farther or Replace? "The current situation is lower quality bass response and weaker soundstage. Any thoughts would be appreciated." that’s it, new tubes! I’ll add my advice, get your own simple tube tester, to test existing tubes; new tubes you buy; and any time y... | |
Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital? ADD Streaming; KEEP Vinyl. Worn stylus is a great opportunity to try a different cartridge, do it soon, have your existing cartridge as a backup. Do you have the few tools and skills to align a new cartridge? | |
Good Reel-To Reel Blank RecordingTape OP I always encourage you and others to get into or back into R2R. Even though it is my lowest S/N format, some tape hiss: I and all my friends pick LP over CD and R2R over LP. My Pre-Recorded Tapes are my best source. "I’m going to make recordi... | |
Cartridge recommendations I love my AT33PTG/II MC, very wide separation, very tight center balance both enhance imaging, very linear, and listen all day long without fatigue. https://www.audio-technica.com/en-us/cartridges/type/moving-coil/at33ptg-2 I wore it out, didn’t... | |
Used gear prices and the state of the hobby. No remote, a darn shame, not always a deal breaker. I would put a link in my ad to OEM remote(s) for sale by others to increase probable sale. Some units, like my beloved Chase RLC-1 remote line controller MUST have a remote, zero controls on th... | |
Used gear prices and the state of the hobby. It's a feedback loop because most sellers have no idea what to ask, so they look to see what others are asking, ... | |
What do you do when you inherit some gear that you don’t want. Shipping: you can transfer the entire process to the buyer. 1. find the closest UPS 'Pack and Ship' near you 2. Measurements and Weights in your ad. 3. sellers contact the pack and ship themselves, if proceed, they pay UPS themselves,... | |
McIntosh MC 601 Current conversion from 110 to 220 Volt I would write McIntosh support for advice. Where do you live? If near new jersey, you might ask Steve or Ray Leung at VAS for advice | |
Sending out Offers in marketplace. you could tell the other seller(s) that you made someone else an offer, no response, waiting for a reply within ___ hrs, and if declined, you would like to offer them ____. IOW, get your foot halfway in the door. | |
Concident Frankenstein 300B Stereo Seems quite well designed and built. Visual Appeal gets my friend's interest! Israel needs an EDITOR, everything described is repeated at least 3 times. | |
Router for Audio Streaming I would first order a new one from Amazon or Best Buy before I tried a factory reset. Good, compare, keep or return new one. Bad, new one at your fingertips! | |
Time/Process of Hooking up New Equipment yes, wait, even better, get a friend over to help you. | |
Harley Benton Mighty-15TH Test I agree, why post it here. btw, "designed as a single channel with master volume." take your guitar and this gizmo with a single speaker down to the subway, put some seed money in your hat, have at it. My little luxman uses 4 of those tubes, st... | |
Sansui Au9500 - Leave it on? OFF, on 20 minutes before listening, back OFF!!! |
