| Name your favorite sax solo. One of my favorite LPs is Gerry Mulligan meets Johnny Hodges. an often overlooked album. But it is one of those strokes of genius that Norman Granz had while he owned Verve. It may be available on CD now, but I have the vinyl issue. Get it some of... | |
| Review: Sansui AU-7700 Amplifier Basic difference between the AU6600 and AU7700 is power output. I would say the AU 6600 is about 40 WRMS per side while the Au 7700 is 54 WRMS per side.Over the years have had many of these with the RCA connections you speak of. Although I have no... | |
| Name your favorite sax solo. Let's not pass over Paul Desmond who penned "Take Five" and forever changed the perception of jazz for all time. As well as Gerry Mulligan and Pepper Adams on the Baritone and the very often over looked Hank Mobley, but a true giant on the sax. An... | |
| Possibly the best pre-amp one can have The use of video opamps may be the first of such a design. However in 1977 NAD used a video gain amplifier in their preamp section of the Model 3080 integrated amp and the 7080 Receiver. So it appears to me that NAD in its infancy was way ahead in... | |
| Joel Thorner has passed away Joel will be missed by many. Truly one of the good guys in audio that is not often found. Always was ready to help any of us with his gift. A great loss to mankind. | |
| Luciano Pavarotti dead at 71 One of the giants in music. While devoted to opera, was one of the few that crossed over into other genres quite nicely, while retaining his outright gift.The world has lost a magnificent human being, with a voice to match.He will be missed by all... | |
| Superphon Revelation Mark II - Mods Someone just sent me Stans e mail address, we will if I get a reply. | |
| Review: Sumiko Blue Point No.2 Cartridge In overall signature the BP No.2 is slightly ahead of the Denon DL 110 and DL 160. But the margin is small indeed. In my opinion the BP No.2 has a degree or two in analytical depth the Denon DL do not have. However to some listeners this imparts t... | |
| Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which? If Andrew the author of this thread hasn't found a preamp by now, he is not likely to do so. In the past seven months of this post, we have flogged this to death, and has turned more into a blog than anything else. All have made valid points in re... | |
| Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which? Still in my opinion and after 50 years in this hobby starting out in tubes in 1957 and going solid state in 1977.And having worked in the music industry for 30 years I think I have a little knowledge in this area. The FM Acoustic brand is the pinn... | |
| Vintage NAD 3080 One of NADs great power amps. Will drive damn near any load connected to it. See Audiogon Review of the NAD 7080 Receiver. The Amp section is the same as the 3080. | |
| Review: Sansui AU-7700 Amplifier Founder Mr Kosaku Kikuchi, last amp that he had hands on as designer, before the bankers took over, was the AU 9500. A very hard to come by integrated amp today and a great collectable in the Sansui line up. Highly sought after by collectors. | |
| Review: Sumiko Pearl Cartridge My best results have been tracking the Pearl at the full range of 2 grams. For me the anti skating was set near the 1.5 gram mark on a Rega RB 250 arm. I am not sure what is causing the buzzing. Re-check all your connections and make sure the inte... | |
| Review: Sumiko Pearl Cartridge To be totally candid I cannot tell a sonic difference between the DL 110 0r the DL 160. The DL 160 does have a tapered cantilever, which aids in trackability, but other than that sonically I can't tell the difference. Can't go wrong with either th... | |
| Review: Sumiko Pearl Cartridge I would give the nod to the Denon DL 110,better transient response,with detail and transparency that the Sumiko Pearl somewhat lacks. |
