| VAC 30/70...pick your pre? Out of what you're considering, I would go with the 30/70, especially if it's the Sig version. It's one hell of an amp. Don't let anyone try and tell you a KT88 amp is better than the Ren series. I don't know your speaker but the Vac 30/70 has ver... | |
| Phono amp as good as Shindo Aurieges phono section An interesting scenario may be to have an Aesthetix Rhea on hand when you get your Aurieges back. You would get two very different perspectives with the Rhea design having no Step up device. That's very uncommon for a tube based phono stage. I can... | |
| Phono amp as good as Shindo Aurieges phono section How were you using the Aurieges. Were you using an SUT? What's your analog front end? It would be helpful to mention your price range for a phono stage. I believe the Allnic entry level unit is $3K | |
| INTERNAL CABLING- Heres some choices, give me your two cents on these cables..... Please _ grannyring- Do you feel the Duelund 20 gauge may be better than the 16 gauge on the mid and horn drivers. I have just my 15" woofer and horns, and will likely try my 16 gauge in both places to start. Off subject, but I've been breaking in a pair o... | |
| INTERNAL CABLING- Heres some choices, give me your two cents on these cables..... Please _ I'm now using Belden 9497 for internal cabling on my Altec Valencia's. I run a Werner Jagusch Crossover outboard with the 9497 going from crossover to woofers and horns. I have the Duelund 16 Awg in another system as main speaker cable on Harbeth'... | |
| Origin Live Turntables? You could ask about OL, Brinkmann, Acoustic Signature, Bauer/DPS, Kuzma, Pear Audio, or many other currently produced turntables.... Sadly, the general lack of feedback may be similar. Like it or not, the US is VPI country. I would venture to say ... | |
| Improve volume from turntable with a new cartridge? Eric- Are you getting dynamics with the vinyl. 5 mv is a healthy output. All very tough to say without knowing your phono section, and the condition of your cartridge. Needledoctor has plenty of cartridges with the listed specs to explore on their... | |
| Best Tubed Preamp For A Warm, Rich Sound, Yet Still Detailed and Agile + 1 on the Lamm LL2 and Monbrison. If you're not doing phono, you would be wasting a very good phono stage with the latter. As much as I love the Shindo, the Lamm may match a wider range of amps. | |
| Looking for thoughts from Nottingham Analog table owners What are the associated components in your demo system at your dealership? | |
| Harbeth C7ES3 vs Spendor SP2/3R2 Sounds like you have some good synergy going with your amp. I have enjoyed both Spendor 3/5R's, and Harbeth P3esr. At the moment, the latter is singing with a Croft phono integrated amp. Silly good at it's price point. Congrats on a great speaker. | |
| Brightest but shortest artistic bursts in the sky Also disagree on Waiting fir the Sun. The ballads are great, particularly "Love Street". While not quite on a level with Strange Days, still some great Doors music. The only Morrison era LP I'm not big on is The Soft Parade. More on subject, dare... | |
| Looking for thoughts from Nottingham Analog table owners bcowen- I am familiar with Pear Audio. I believe the Palmers also implement some of Mr. Fletchers designs in their tables. He must have been doing something right (-: I do like the look of the Palmer and AW in particular. I think AW also does a b... | |
| Good source for TT dustcover?? + 1 for JMK Displays. I believe they are in Western NY. Prices were very reasonable, but more importantly, mine looks great. | |
| Looking for thoughts from Nottingham Analog table owners I hate to be the one, but I can't resist. I'm planning on hearing the Analogue Works table soon. The dealer I spoke with has experience with Nott's, and says the AW tables are a bit more lively sounding. I also like the fact the tables I will list... | |
| Duelund DCA16GA My Duelund 20ga (un-shielded) is now being terminated by a local tech who is also a manufacturer of boutique electronics. My pair is being terminated with Switch Craft RCA's. If I like this interconnect, I may do the same, but this time shielded. ... |
