| Right match Something is wrong, they should be a great match. who did you buy it from? definitely get maker's customer service involved, | |
| Blu Ray player versus CD/SACD player. these Sony's hold their value, I found one from a person's second system, very little use. This one, seller says/shows only 80 hours use. I paid $1,000. and thought I got lucky due to low use. Prices of everything have gone up since, $1... | |
| Blu Ray player versus CD/SACD player. I went in search of a better CD player, then remembered SACDs, realizing I probably never heard those 20 or so SACd's thru a superior player. Many here advised OPPO, I tried two OPPOs Marantz; Denon, Yamaha, ... went thru 9 players until I found ... | |
| tube tuner or solid stat tuner All SS System, I’d stick with SS Tuner. If considering used or vintage, my Carver AM/FM Tuner incorporated some of his unique patents, very capable reception. I had the TX-2 AM/FM Tuner. I have tube amp and went for tube tuner/preamp... | |
| Maybe this is the winter you build something! juanmanuelfangioii I used to take the owner's Chrysler Imperial to pick up donuts for break time at Vermont Mattress Company, Burlington, VT. 440 with push button shifters on the dash board. Incredible. "Who want's to go for donuts"? Me, Me, Me | |
| Maybe this is the winter you build something! I overhauled a pair of AR-2ax’s. Originally for nostalgic reasons (mine from college days were stolen), were going to go in the garage/shop system. They sound awesome, and happily fit on/in a bookcase 11.5 x 13.5 x 24. I had forgotten they have l... | |
| Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT dover, mulveling You both know more than I do. Understanding SUTs and MC Phono inputs or MC Phono Stages or MM/MC Combo units (individual selectable, one input and a switch somewhere) is one of the trickiest parts of moving into MC cartridge(s). ... | |
| Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT PHONO: basic advice: do not use interconnects to avoid potential problems. if so, as short as possible. SUT: tonearm phono cable with ground into SUT. Phono cable with ground out of SUT to Phono MM input and a ground somewhere nearby. I have had... | |
| Does Everyone Use 2 Phono Cables with SUT Huh? that cartridge has a difficult combo of high 16 ohm impedance and low .23mv signal. It is the type that might need a SUT with individual gain adjustments and individual impedance what SUT are you using? You need to know the x factor of it’... | |
| Record collecting versus hoarding How do you end up with so/too many? I bought LPs in the 60’s, high school, college days, beat em up pretty bad, Stopped buying for many years while paying college loans. Inherited some classical from my uncle, and got my first Jazz via a friends ... | |
| Entre' ET-100 SUT My approach is: (below #s using typical phono stage 47k, verify yours) a. find 'shown' impedance' goal ____? b. use 'shown' goal ____ to select x factor range ______ i.e. 47,000/___ goal = xf sq. (square root of xf sq = ____ x factor) c. that ... | |
| Entre' ET-100 SUT Elliott is correct, and yes, x factor x cartridge signal strength = resultant signal strength out of the SUT into the MM phono stage (allow for a bit of loss). use X factor squared to calculate what ’resultant’ impedance that will be shown to the... | |
| Which Transport or CD Player? I searched and searched, got help here, am beyond happy with my Sony xa5400ES asked about it here I went thru Oppos, Marantz, Denon; KLH .... very much like Onkyo Integra CDC 3.4 changer (no sacd) | |
| Temporary Down Sizing - Integrated Amp Recommendations very interesting discussion of those OHM Tall 1000’s. audiophiliac,, search youtube for: 'Ohm Walsh 1000 Sounds Like Being There' The chart in the video indicates low sensitivity, and various models designed primarily for room size. 2 chann... | |
| What was the last CD you bought (Name, and year issued)? Mariza, Portuguese: Modern Fado |
