| which preamp with the Lamm ml2's? My dollars went to buying a new Wavestream Kinetics pre-amp from the Analog Room in San Jose, Ca. IMHO this is the best pre-amp or in top 5 at least. However there are excellent used Lamm pre-amps for sale on Audiogon at a good price. Beyond Lamm ... | |
| do cds sound better when transf via apple lossless Jax2, thanks for those links. They were very eye opening. Steve Nugent's is just full of great information that helped me. | |
| Wilson Audio Owners.....Sophia's There's a pair of Audio Research REF 210 monos for sale on Audiogon that would match well with your Sophias. | |
| Help with finding ultra-transparent pre-amp You have a great CD player. I like the Wavestream Kinetics preamp or 2nd choice would be Wytech Labs Opal or Jade. These tube preamps are super clean sound adding no sonic signature to the sound. Have fun. | |
| Ultra high resolution Not an unreasonable question, but can I have some fun and give answers in three groups; System, Listening position and then Vinyl software no silver discs.This is one system I can suggest; Wilson Maxx2, ASR Emitter II with battery option or Dartze... | |
| What is the BEST phono stage Wavestream Kinetics designed by Scott Franklyn is a tube super phono pre-amp in your price range that betters many higher price products. I think its one of the best at any price period. I'm biased because bought it to replaced my Aesthetix's Io S... | |
| Revel Salon 2 versus WP 8 I agree with Jkalman in general. This discussion shows why its so important to have a home demo period before you buy. These speakers cost a lot and if you have just a normal home environment you have to pick the best speaker that works in that en... | |
| Wilson Audio Owners.....Sophia's You can use Lamm 2.1 for wonderful music. | |
| Seeking Phono Installer in SF Bay Area Ditto on Brian. He is primarily a dealer. He has set ups about every TT Arm combination around, but call to see if he does home calls in SF on equipment he hasn't sold.Another name in south bay, but maybe, is Nick Gowen of True Sound in Campbell. ... | |
| A Very Long Primer on Record Cleaning Fluids Justin_time, Wow, thanks for taking the time to give us an excellent primer on RCFs. It was very interesting and informative - the best I've read on this subject. Being an retired engineer with a chemist best friend, both audiophiles, I'm going to... | |
| Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy System 8 Excellent advice Amir57bs for almost all situations, but not for my situation with the speakers between our living room and dinning room. You present two thoughts. One, shorter ICs are better than long one. I agree generally, but I can't do it her... | |
| Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy System 8 I had an eye opening experience this week end with replacing my 6M Nordost Valhalla with a 6M Stealth Indra. Everything was more open, transparent, natural and made my W/P 8's sound incredibly more beautiful and more musical. I was shocked and can... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? I never heard the two Rockport speakers above the Altairs (my absolute favorite), but if they are better - they must be wonderful.1. Rockport Technologies Altair (great all round)2a. Avantegarde Duo Primo (breathless - emotional)2b. Hansen Prince ... | |
| Considering a change. Avantgarde for Wilson. Good that you made a decision.I've had both and now own the W/P 8's. Why, because they make better music in my home environment with my system. Truly, its always comes down to that - a combination of factors in your home environment and your syste... | |
| Walker or VPI motor controller with scoutmaster? Another vote for SDS! I used it with my Basis 2500 Sig. Works great. I've checked speed measurements time from time and the SDS remains steady and right on 33 or 45 rpm.There may be better controllers, but at $700 used hard to beat it. |
