| Latest Pink Moon Reissue Played mine last night. It's the new pressing just released on or about Feb 26. I wanted the box, but didn't want to cough up $100. This album delivers in every way. Quiet surfaces, great detail. It has that special analog sound that sometimes elu... | |
| Anyone tried the original Playstation 1 for CD? Just realized I left mine on by mistake for a day, and turned it off. Oh Well! Is it ok just to leave it powered up in general then? I am impressed so far, mine is only a few months old, and being used to break in a new system. It will be my only ... | |
| EMT TSD15 tonality..colouration ? I had forgotten about this thread, but I stand corrected on my last comment. I have since been corrected, that my Tsd-15 is in fact an SFL. I stand by my other comments though. | |
| Cartridge dilemma As Vinylmad814 mentions, you may want to check out the Clearaudio MM's. You could also ask Peter L. about their Denon 103's. I think you are on the right track. The Shelter 5000 may also be in your price range. I would ask about the 17D vs the 20X... | |
| step up transformer? Well, with your open price range, here's my list. A23 Homage T1, A23 standard for SPU, Choir Hashimoto H-3 or H-7, Ortofon Verto, Bob's devices 3440, 1131. EAR, K&K,Ikeda. This of course assuming the Fosgate Sig has MM phono. | |
| $5000.00 To Spend Looking for Tube Pre-Amp You are getting some excellent suggestions here. Herron is very well respected, and agreed on Shindo from experience. I believe ILS in NY has a Monbrison for sale. It is a used trade in on their website. If you are looking for a line stage only, a... | |
| Harbeth 40.1 vs spendor sp100r2 Rugby1- I believe St. Louis Stereo carries both DeVore and Harbeth. I am not sure if they have Orangutan's, and the larger Harbeths. If they do, perhaps they could shed light on the comparison. If it helps, I am driving the little Spendor 3/5 R's ... | |
| Can a $3K table be among the best out there? Ggavetti- This guy liking Teres is kind of my point. Maybe the guy thinks every table/arm between $3-$5K is nothing special. As we know, the Teres is not in the Amadeus price range. That said, if he hears an Amadeus, a VPI Classic, a Rega RP8, Cle... | |
| Can a $3K table be among the best out there? Ggavetti-Thanks for sharing the info. This guy designs TT's and arms. I am sure someone in his position, have opinions on how a TT should be designed. It doesn't sound like he agrees with the design philosophy of WT. That said, has he heard one. P... | |
| $ 0.00 offers permitted? Yes-as Peter stated. Sometimes there is only a choice to Make Offer. I think people may post a low offer, just to ask a question. Ridiculous, but unfortunately may be the case. The personal aspect is no longer there. | |
| Your favorite place to order new vinyl. Second Acoustic Sounds/ add Music Direct! | |
| Dyna XX-2 MKII vs. Lyra Kleos Jmcgrogan2- That's what I thought. I was just trying to see what TT/arm you had. I think you made a great move on the XX-2 though. I have heard the 20X-L, and was very impressed. Especially at less than 1K. I sent you a PM as well. Cheers-Don | |
| Dyna XX-2 MKII vs. Lyra Kleos Captain winters- Is the MC1 Boron in the 2K price range, like the XX-2? Also curious about how long it took to get your Allaerts, if you bought new. I heard it can take some time, since it is such a small company. I have been intrigue by the JA ca... | |
| Best "Giant Killer" Value Cables For... I am also exploring a similar road with a small 2nd system. Wireworld has entry level cables that are suppose to be quite good. For instance, their Equinox 6 interconnects are $200/meter. Again, I am only giving this some thought, and have yet to ... | |
| I was kidnapped by apes - DeVore Gibbon88s Cto007- Glad you enjoyed. I have owned the Nines, and now 0/96's. I have never heard either with Naim, but have heard it's a nice match. I heard that about the Naim w/ Gibbons anyway. I assume the 88's retail in the 5-6K range, is that accurate ? |
