| Best Integrated amp for my ProAc No- but I'd sure venture to say LM Audio would be worth a look. I'm much liking the 211IA with my Spendors. | |
| Back on Black: LED ZEP 1-3 For giggles I compared my std pressing of 2, cat. # SD19127 with the 180G Classic. According to Discogs the std press is a First Press. I usually prefer Std pressings, but not here. The Classic is much more fleshed out, and open. Really not even c... | |
| Back on Black: LED ZEP 1-3 Downunder- I tend to agree, although I may give just one a try. I am well stocked on the Classic too. I have 1/2/4 on 180 gr + the 200 gram box w/ 1/2/3/4 and he Stairway 45.Sure wish I sprung for the 45 box when it was available. | |
| cartridge for WELL TEMPERED Amadeus Vladimir- Thanks for letting me know it is 10 grams. Dhcod- No arguments here, I love my Tsd 15. It will stay put on the Amadeus GTA. I'm only considering options for my standard Amadeus, in my second system. Cheers -Don | |
| cartridge for WELL TEMPERED Amadeus Notec- I have thought about the Frog Gold, or MC10 Special. I have heard references that The Transfig's can be Koetsu like in the midrange, which is appealing. Should have mentioned, I have a TSD15 on a GTA in my main setup.This is for a Standard ... | |
| cartridge for WELL TEMPERED Amadeus I was thinking about a Transfiguration Pheonix or Axia for my Amadeus. Is there any reason why this pairing wouldn't be a good one? | |
| Best EL34 reissue? Correction on the Tube Store, and Mullards. It is actually the Tungsol EL34B that appears to have the best overall rating. | |
| Jolida JD9: I think I over-bought. Alternatives? Heed Quasar may be a nice option. It has a warmer, relaxed sound to my ears. | |
| Best EL34 reissue? System matching being paramount as always, I feel the SED's are nice and warm. My speakers could use a little wake up call, so I'm thinking the opposite of what you are w/ Maggies.El34- I believe Tube Store in CA rates the Mullard quite well. | |
| What's wrong with my almost new speakers? Hey, lets go guys. Solve this problem immediately. | |
| Two turntable setup ideas to go with an SPU cart Thanks- A Garrard 401 or 301 is something I have often thought about, but not been 100% comfortable with. That's why I am thinking new production, with the ability to go SPU. Is a 12" arm thought of as clearly being superior to a 9"? | |
| Poll...Ayre V3 versus Pass Labs X250..... One things for sure, many of these threads start without giving associated equip, personal taste.... I think if the OP gave his speaker, there would be something here. | |
| VPI Cyclone cleaner Yes- I have heard it is quieter than the 16.5, and of course has dual rotation. As a bonus, it's apparently built a bit more substantially. I like my 16.5, but am also thinking of the Cyclone. Either that, or disposable Ear plugs. Cheers -Don | |
| TT Preference: Brinkmann, Sota, Dr Feickert Interesting to see how their speed stability would compare if we were talking about a Brinkman w/ belt drive. I have heard the Bardo, and liked it very much under show conditions. I believe both lines may be at the Montreal show the last weekend i... | |
| Should I trust movers with my equipment? There's us and then there's everybody else. Don't trust the latter with audio equipment. |
