| 19th Nervous Breakdown... Gee Grandpad, Thanks for the invite! Unfortunately, I live in Michigan so I'll have to take a rain check.I haven't decided yet what to do, but I am pretty sure I'm going to keep the Linn and just upgrade the arm. Possibly a Graham or Ekos II depen... | |
| burner with s/pdif RCA or balanced imputs ? Jitter is only a factor in d/a or a/d conversions. When copying digital to digital, expensive and inexpensive will do the same job. | |
| 19th Nervous Breakdown... Grandpad,Upon reflection, I'm not quite sure we disagree any more. While I would probably still use the upgrade strategy of getting a great table and worry about the arm upgrade later, I am no longer convinced that the strategy is at all linear (i... | |

| 19th Nervous Breakdown... Grandpad,I don't doubt your experience with your friend's table and your arms. I just thought that the best music reproduction starts from the best source. In the mechanical chain of processes that is a turntable, the rotation mechanism is primary... | |
| burner with s/pdif RCA or balanced imputs ? I have a card deluxe and I've been copying vinyl with very good results (though certainly not as good as the original vinyl.) In answer to your first question, as you suspect, you will go from your line level out to the analog in on the card delux... | |

| Turntable upgrade: What to do? pctower,if you're looking to unload your Basis 2500 in the near future, let me know - I'd be interested. | |
| 19th Nervous Breakdown... Grandpad, I'd be curious to know how his Space Arm sounded on your Oracle V. | |
| 19th Nervous Breakdown... For $3500 on the used market you should be able to buy a great rig. Whatever you buy, consider that the table itself will have the greatest impact on sound quality, then the arm and last, the cartridge. It has been my philosophy to put most of the... | |
| Is it just me or.....? My interest was peaked by the title to your posting, but I NEVER go to cables. I check out analog first and then speakers. | |
| Jazz review: reissues of 2 favorite LP's www.redtrumpet.com has it for $29.99. | |
| Vinyl to Digital I agree with Ljgj. There too many great titles in each format which are not available on the other. But from now on, If I have a choice between formats for a particular title, I'll choose vinyl. | |
| Vinyl to Digital I just recently unearthed an old turntable with the expectation of transferring vinyl to digital. I got a Card Deluxe by Digital Audio and Sound Forge software. My initial results were very encouraging, so I ended up getting a used Linn LP12 (stil... |
