| Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS. @jeffvegas I also suggest the new Technics SL1200G as a sound audiophile TT. It is reasonably priced, durable and is superior to the prior DJ iterations. There are several very high end DD TTs now including VPI. Technics made some great DD TTs ... | |
| Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS. I would recommend a VPI 19-4 first for the price, then a Scoutmaster or Aries on the used market. I do not like the Project tables at the same price as used VPIs and read that Rega tables under $2,000 have speed problems (too fast). One problem me... | |
| Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS. I own a VPI 19-4 and a VPI TNT 6, both tricked out. The 19-4 has an Ultracraft unipivot and the TNT has a tricked out SME IV and Benz Ruby 3. The unipivot was not my favorite for LPs (bought the SME 7 years later) but it does sound great with a ... | |
| Albums that you listen to straight through / start to finish whenever you put them on! I generally listen to the entire album unless it has (in classical music) a particular piece worth listening to and not the other(s). Often one side will sound superior to the other side of the record (factual statement as to pressing differences... | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? I was thinking about trying SR UEF Cable Risers next. I found the SR Blackbox sucked the life out of recordings by cutting off frequencies above 8Khz. The UEF Cable Riser demo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVIKxulyLNY may indicate a similar... | |
| Disappointing On Mcintosh......help Moving from my former good quality media room to my great/expensive/custom engineered designed listening room was an eye opener. The same very good/not SOTA audio system became a fabulous sounding system, making 30 year old, very good speakers so... | |
| Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System Well, Acoustic Fields and Vicoustic sell superior quality and higher cost quadradic diffusion as well as other acoustic treatments. The HFT on the back of my Legacy Focus has to be placed between the two upper ports and the lower subwoofer driver.... | |
| Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System @millercarbon I want to comment on the use of HFTs. I installed 32 on walls and speakers. I found the basic set up to Level 5 on walls excellent. However, on my speakers, no matter which HFT was placed near my dome tweeter and ribbon supertwee... | |
| New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies Do not fret. Krissy is making sure that Tim’s innovations and new ones are being developed as a new company. Give her some time though as she had to relocate (move out) of her home and take her belongings (antique business). That N.H. common law w... | |
| Perfect Path Solutions Total Contact Mega Review on 1/15 Geoffkait wrote of 5 Humbly submitted for your consideration. How not (rpt not) to be able to tell what a system sounds like 5. Lack of tweaks in the system. (Gotcha! That’s actually a clue to the system’s sound - bad!) I don’t know if thi... | |
| So What Is Real? I suspect I'm being trolled by @dynaquest4 | |
| So What Is Real? No, I have 25,000 LPs/7,000 CDs/7,000 78s. I am 64 and started collecting/listening at 2 (two years old). At 5, I had 300 records (Steve Hoffman used to bring his portable record player to the beach when he was a child). I was not permitted t... | |
| So What Is Real? glubson, Thank you. I already had the equipment and I moved into another home. The prior home had a 25X20X11 (vaulted) size listening and storage room with windows behind and to the side of the speakers. Although it had a 6" poured reinforced 3... | |
| So What Is Real? @glubson I was very specific concerning the cost of my cabling at about $7500 and gave some detail as to the average cost and number of cables. My main audio system cost is about $60,000.The room cost had a cost overrun of about $20,000 due to d... | |
| So What Is Real? @glupson My four systems which use GH cables cost $7500. That includes 3 amp/2 turntable/2 CD/1 DAK/2 pre-amp/2 Bryston BIT-20/2 receivers (TV) power cables (12X), 11X I.C. pairs (RCA) and 4 speaker cables. That’s 27 cables or $278 average each (... |
