| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Thank you, Dover. Reading recent posts I have been mystified by the suggestion that the RB300 could be considered to offer performance on a par with, or even close to that of the SME 5 I have owned both and the Rega, while offering good performa... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? @neonknight, don’t be too quick to deem your thread “useless”. Putting aside the responses that you feel have strayed too far from your original question, you have received at least half a dozen opinions on arms that others feel “surpass the SME5”... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Still waiting to know if mijostyn has actually spent any time with a properly set up ET2, or any other linear tracker for that matter. Hope you feel better mijo, some nasty bugs out there, | |
| Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube! @noromance 😊 | |
| Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube! Thank you, steakster. I am familiar with Plato’s allegory. I do like Schopenhauer’s wording. Regards. | |
| Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube! +++++1 @noromance I enjoy saving memorable quotes. Thanks for this one: “Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world.” - -Arthur Schopenhauer | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Mijostyn, as far as I can tell, you have not missed one single opportunity to bash the ET2 in the various discussions here; and, by extension, suggest that I (and others) can’t possibly be hearing what we hear. Yet, as far as I can tell, there has... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? Atmasphere, thanks for your response. Dover does a much better job than I could explaining the technical details and reasons why I hear what I hear. What I hear is always the bottom line for me and the ET2 has shown itself to be a fantastic arm. ... | |
| What Does It Take To Surpass A SME V? There’s a first time for everything. After all these years of reading and appreciating Atmasphere’s excellent and very informative posts it happened: disagreement. **** Back in the old days when the SME5 was first made, there were only three top ... | |
| Classical music newbie needs your suggestions Many good suggestions. However, I would like to offer a different approach. You say you already own 600 Classical music recordings; half of which are opera. That’s a lot of music. Start out by listening to what you already have before spending a ... | |
| Classical music newbie needs your suggestions Puccini is a great place to start with opera. Btw, the opera “Carmen” is by Georges Bizet, not Puccini. For Puccini I would start with La Boheme. | |
| Confession: I only like Norah Jones because so many others told me to Norah Jones. Jazz singer?! “Darling of the Jazz press”?! Huh? I don’t think so. Don’t get me wrong I kind of like Norah Jones and some of her material may be a little “jazzy” at times, but a Jazz singer she is not. Perhaps that is part of ... | |
