| How to stream sound from your turntable? Or you could just stream the music from the Blue sound via tidal or similar. why digitize your vinyl with an inferior AD when you have a streamer. Listen to vinyl when your in the room that its playing and listen to streamed when you want multi ro... | |
| MC Phono Preamp To be honest your not going to find much at your budget. I would say save a bit more up and look at the $500 price range as a target for starting to find a good sounding phono stage. That said I can recommend the ifi Iphono 2 ( or 1) as a great en... | |

| Rush/Stevie Wonder remasters vs. 24 Karat Audio Fidelity releases... not sure about the SW, but I have heard some of the new releases by Rush (mostly on vinyl) and they are quite nicely done. I got all the Rush releases from Rush's web sight. | |

| To active speaker or not.. this is the question I'm not overly worried about the vibrations in a speaker and the associated amps with in or on the back. I'm not the type of audiophile that stresses about the small stuff as I prefer to listen to music then stress about the gross effects of vibra... | |

I did this a couple years ago went from an oracle delphi mk4 to a Garrard 301 set up and never been happier. there is much r... | |
| Anthem getting into two channel with new STR pre-amp-- anyone heard it? Why does everyone get upset when a dealer who 1. state who they are and 2. seem to honestly want to help posts here. Why get upset you know they are a dealer so filter out the sales talk and use the information they are giving if it helps. Don't ... | |
| To active speaker or not.. this is the question ATC, PMC and Dynaudio is worth looking at if not expensive here in NA mind you the UK pound is quite deflated right now. I do head PMC is a bit dry and analytical sounding though. Wonder if there is anything else to look at closer to ? | |
| Have cartridges been known to fail (Grado)? Highly unlikely both carts would fail, check the rest of your chain and do the above and check with a multi-meter the continuity of the coils in the carts. that said the coil wire is very small think smaller then a hair, so if not stored in a clea... | |
