| Ideal power cord lengths? I wonder if you moved closer to the power generation plant if that would help? | |
| Recommendations please! I'm not sure what your budget is but I've been very pleased with the McIntosh C2700 tube preamp, I'm sure you can find an older version. I was originally worried it would be too rolled off sounding but its not your older Mac preamp its very neutra... | |
| Cary Audio SLP 98 Mundorf capacitors & Hexfred rectifiers upgrade I did one a number of years ago. i used AudioNote Copper caps and a TKD volume pot. those changes made the preamp much more detailed and so much more musical. The TKD volume pot was a surprising upgrade. the copper caps made the whole system sou... | |
| Where do you want your system to go when you go? This is something many do not consider, as most family's have no idea what the equipment is worth or where to sell it. I'm going through this now helping a friends wife sell off his equipment, records, and odds and ends after his sudden passing.... | |
| TurnTable recommendation with dual arms - up to $20K used something to consider if sufficient space around the table, is an arm pod. Arm pod can be used to add a second arm easily to many tables that do not come with them. And at less money then buying a table with a second arm mount already. As for tab... | |
| $4000 BUGDET - YOU ONLY HAVE 2 CHOICES - YOUR FEEDBACK MUCH APPRECIATED Thanks Charles. | |
| What have you discovered? "ghdprentice Every dedicated music server I have owned completely trounced every pc or laptop I have owned. Some examples; Aurrender N100 ($3.6K), Aurlic Aries G2 ($5K), Aurender N10 ($10K), and Aurender W20SE ($22K). I found the latter was so go... | |
| $4000 BUGDET - YOU ONLY HAVE 2 CHOICES - YOUR FEEDBACK MUCH APPRECIATED Neither on LaScala's IMO after owning LaScala's for a number of years and trying many amps you really need to hear good tubes on them. and low power SETs. If it was me I'd get the processor you like ( room correction is a big plus IMO) and use l... | |
| Help in deciding which tube preamp to replace my old SFL-2 The new McIntosh C2700 has totally impressed me with the sound and all its features. Easily one of the better deals in hi end audio. Not your older MAC sound its very neutral and clean sounding. The phono stages (one MM and one MC ) in it are quit... | |
| Sound quality stranger Things on Netflix my son-in-aw is in the film industry he works as an editor, he told me sound is definitely a second though to many productions. the editors do not even have the competed sound track when they edit just the sound from the mics in the room unfiltere... | |
| Diy Audio look for a vintage or used shop / online locally and buy used. don't bother trying to work with that driver with out its specs you wont get it to work correctly. and its probably not going to do much in the top end or bottom end. and have you pric... | |
| Can anyone tell me where the progress in audio went? hard to have progress when your market is all old people . just not enough interest in hi end audio from the younger generations, yes there are a few outliers but as a whole our hobby is aging out of relevance. | |
| Need replacement of MC207 there is a whole slew of multi channel amps on here, like the mac listed below for example. i think you can find what ever you like in your price range or much less. there's a few anthem milti channel amps on there too for much less money that wo... | |
| Garrard 301 restore After do this a few years ago i would also look at plinths form over seas they seem to be well made and reasonably priced. I’d spend more on an arm if I was doing it again, but for the final arm you can getaway with a lesser arm to start. Also co... | |
| Chime in if you bought a second table that cost a fraction of your main table. I had a VPI prime 21 and loved it, Then got an Acoustic Solid 113 Bubinga as a second table ( it looked way better then the vpi) after set up I ended up liking the Acoustic Solid table better ( same cart), at half the price so sold the VPI. saved... |
