| Shindo and Joule Electra Preamps No worries. Not saying you shouldn't make the comparison,but just thought it was worth mentioning. Do you requirea phono stage. | |
| picked up Steely Dan : Can't buy a Thrill on ABC "Katy Lied is the first Steely Dan on the yellow ABC label."Thanks Audiofeil. My first copy of CBAT is on ABC yellow, asI mentioned in my post. Not a big deal, but FWIW. Thanks forthe recommendation on Countdown, and Pretzel Logic.Thanks Annika, I... | |
| picked up Steely Dan : Can't buy a Thrill on ABC Yikes! I also played the Royal Scam on ABC yellow, purchasedfrom the same vendor at that show. Holy smoke, another great pressing. I admit this is my first Royal Scam, but I feel like I hit one out of the park on my first at bat. They are both ver... | |
| Shindo and Joule Electra Preamps I have not, but just want to make a general statement. I believe the JE LA 150 mk 2 or 3 is around 7-8K, whilethe LA-300 ME is like 15K. A good phono stage w/ eitherof these would be another 5K. Shouldn't you be comparingthese to a Massetto or V-R... | |
| heavy metal I'll do it for " The Sword" , that Ass clown Bolton, and aBritney Spears. The Spears has to be the triple gatefold,w/ the staple holes in her stomach. Let me know ! | |
| DeVore Silverbacks My guess is you will want to move to a tube amp w/ theDeVore's. If you did get them, you could always try aMac 275 tube amp. IMHO! You could also check out In LivingStereo, but you likely have already thought of that. Thisall assuming NYC is a con... | |
| DeVore Silverbacks Where did you hear them. What would your partnering amp be. | |
| New Grateful Dead Box set...Opinions? AB is definitely a great recording. The Rhino reissue from a few years ago is good, but my WB green label is better still.Having Workingman's Dead and AB on Green label, I don't think it can get much better. Thus, the box doesn't make sense for me... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Surface Noise "Do you clean them with Mobile Fidelity fluids? If not - you must. That's the ticket."I know some with top notch systems, that use VPI cleaning fluid. I use RRL/MFSL, and it is a good product, but I would be shocked if it eliminated your surface n... | |
| How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono I had an LP2 w/ a Koetsu RSP. It is not a good match.The Lamm's MC input does not have sufficient gain for the .2mv Platinum's. That said, I do bet Logenn gets great results w/ the Hommage in to the MM inputs. I sure wish I was in to SUT's back th... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Surface Noise This can't be. Don't you read their catalogs. Everything sounds gr-r-r-reat, and is highly recommended. Rah! Rah! Rah!!! | |
| Koetsu Blue Lace Onyx vs. Coralstone I have not tried the SME 5 w/ my Jade, but it seems to be the arm recommended most w/ the heavier stone body Platinum's.I don't know the Whest, but is recognized as a top tier phono stage. Certainly it seems as if you gave the Koetsu a fair shot, ... | |
| Koetsu Blue Lace Onyx vs. Coralstone No complaints. To each is own, and glad you're enjoying the A90. I would think Koetsu owners may be curious what you use for a phono stage, and what TT/arm you used. That said, all that matters is you are happy w/ your Ortofon. | |

| Best speaker in the US $ 30-45.000,00 range How about a used pair of Rockport Antares. Should come in a bit less than 30K. Of course the hard part would be getting someone to part with their pair. I find it amazing that in the last 4 + years, not one pair used on the Gon. |
