| BEST TURNTABLE AT COST NO OBJECT Wouldn't it be great if there was a shoot out between the great TT designers armed with their tables, arm of choice, same cartridge on same system, something close to IROC challenge. I would love to see the Rockport design win because it at least ... | |
| CD vs. SACD vs. DVD-Audio vs Vinyl vs... Generally, audiophiles will not experience record wear problems when proper setups and good habits are in use. LPs can be played many times, but never the same cut within 24 hours. If you can hear the difference between 3, 8 and 15 times then poor... | |
| Graaf GM200 OTL amps with Sound Lab Sounds like a very good system coming together with these choices. One of my friends has Mtma-sphere MA2 MKIIs on Sound Labs. His system sounds wonderful. The Atma-sphere's are the best sounding, by far, amps his has ever in the system. I even tri... | |
| List or discuss your favorite music Albert or others, What's a good search pattern for LPs on e-bay. My try yesterday was frustrating and didn't yield anything good. I am interested in Classical and Jazz orginal recordings. Gerrym5 | |
| CD vs. SACD vs. DVD-Audio vs Vinyl vs... Carl, many of us in the kitchen know and follow kitchen safety insights (unspoken, or unwritten rules). It just a requirement as a group to produce and enjoy great food together. Saying we can't stand the heat in the kitchen shows that you don't u... | |
| mono or stereo? (classe or ?) Hi Kacz, Mono amps are generally preferred. My engineering and listening experience over twenty years is that you are generally getting more power supply head-room and better regulation per channel with mono amps. This is huge plus for sound quali... | |
| CD vs. SACD vs. DVD-Audio vs Vinyl vs... Hey, we listen to all formats. I don't listen to recorded music in one situation or one format. Clearly, in the car it is FM or CD or tape and I enjoy those. I even had a 45 record player in, "Bahama Baby", my hot rod in the late fifties and sixti... | |
| NHT SuperOnes Check out reviews on audioreview.com. They are very favorible and a solid 4+ out of 5 stars. I am very satisfied in using these as A/V speakers. They are a lot better than I thought they would be. Superb value and readily available on used market ... | |
| Best turntable at $3500 used. Hi Jman. FYI. There's a Kumzi/Stogi ad on Audioweb.com 03/21/00. Mike Fremer (Stereophile -Analog Conners) wrote nice things about this table. It might be something, especially with setup? | |
| KLIMAX Anyone...!! Eldragon raises good points. The pair of Klimax's listened to my house was under a serious handicap because of an instant comparison situation vs a long-term evaluation period. This pair had in use for at least 2 months by the reviewer in his syst... | |
| Benz Micro vs. Koetsu Nice choices! I have a Cardas 2, which is a Benz Ruby 2 built to Cardas's specs, a spare arm wand today. .I ran a Cardas, and then a model 2 for two years in my system. It is musical, well balanced across the frequencies with leanness, and no exce... | |
| The Best Audio Dealer I live in California and I buy from John Barnes, Audio Unlimited, in Colorado. He is a pleasure to deal with, and has most of the top products. He loves audio and dealing with people that love audio. I bought my Basis, Graham, Koetsu Onyx Platinmu... | |
| KLIMAX Anyone...!! A Reviewer friend of mind was over last night. He is writing an artical a servious pubication and hasn't been impressed with the Klimax in his system.He has seen the many positive reviews which don't add up to what he is hearing. He brought the Kl... | |
| List or discuss your favorite music Get every Classic 45, decca, emi re-issues you can. I buy them automatically and haven't been disappopinted with any of them. Some of these are better than my $$$ mint orginals, only a collector should pay the big bucks for the orginals. The best ... | |
| List or discuss your favorite music This is a very enjoyable discussion topic. My taste in music is Classical, Jazz, Blues, musicals and some pop. "Sony meets Hawk" on RCA 2712 Classis reissue is a knockout! I suggest that if you can find these used records in very good or better co... |
