| Ortofon MC A90 cartridge I finally installed my Ortofon A90 yesterday and right off the bat it sounds fantastic. Note I'm upgrading from a $500 Dynavector Karat 17D3 so it SHOULD be a quantum leap, which it is.Every single parameter is bettter: Soundstage width & dept... | |
| Any better DAC then dCS Scarlatti? This hobby is really getting ridiculous. | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Thanks for all the help guys.I've added some diffusion to the corners of the front wall, switched around the speakers so the woofers now fire inwards, pulled out the speakers even further (now about 2.2m into the room from front wall to tweeter), ... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Kevinzoe - thank you very much for your very thorough response. I greatly appreciate that.I'm going to be trying a few different things over the coming weeks. I've defintely thought about turning it 90 degrees and may even do that if all else fail... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Ken/Lasercd,Yeah let's definitely keep in touch on how your Aquilas are going. I just moved the side firing woofers so they point each other to try it out. I think there was a definite improvement on tighness and punch as well as overall balance. ... | |
| Wavac PR-T1 thoughts? Al - great information & very much appreciated. I know a few owners that uses the PR T1 + Gryphons and swear there's no impedence issue. It's a risk so I do need to think it over. The safest is using the Gryphon Mirage which I have actually he... | |
| Wavac PR-T1 thoughts? So 600ohms may be too high of a resistance to the Gryphon amps you think? Ie too high of an output resistance coupled with too high of an input resistance means not enough signal gets through? | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Mapman, no I heard it with the Gryphon Mirage or the Gryphon Sonata Allegro preamp. I have borrowed the Mirage in my system before. The Wavac is actually not in my system right now but I'm borrowing an Orpheus Two to get by. I can't say 100% it's ... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Thanks for all your wonderful suggestions. Over the next few days/weeks I will try them all. Cmalsk: FYI the dealer is being helpful. He's been here to try and tune the system and I will have him back you can be sure of that.Richard Stacey - Cable... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Actually I don't think the drapes made much difference. I thought it would, but it actually doesn't for some reason. As far as speakers too big for my room, well my room's volume is quite big if you consider that it's a semi-open floor plan (about... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic The speakers currently are 3m apart tweeter to tweeter, 1.5m from the back wall (tweeter to wall). I have tried pulling out the speakers almost to the middle of the room (about 2.5m out from the backwall of a 5.5m length shortwall), as well as pus... | |
| Is my room doomed? Pic Yeah I will add a rug but I don't think it will affect the sound by a lot. I had a big thick rug before but it sucked out a bit too much low end. | |
| Best Power Cord for Phono Stage Sorry my question is a little off topic - was asking about the cord between the tonearm and phonostage.Not many people make this cable, esp DIN to XLR. I think it needs to be custom made from the manufacturers like Jorma, Argento, etc. | |
| Best Power Cord for Phono Stage Does anyone know if the Jorma Prime has a phono cable that is a straight or 90 degree DIN to XLR? | |
| AMR / EMM / PLAYBACK Designs I purchased the Playback MPS-5 after comparing it with the EMM XDS1, EMM CDSA, dCS Puccini, Linn Akurate, Ayre C5XE-MP.Sound quality was the most important factor but not the only consideration. It was more about bang for the buck, future upgradab... |
