| Where Have All the 2A3 Amps Gone Maybe they are all in preamps now? I used to be very curious about those 2A3 preamps.Gregg | |
| VPI Scout vs VPI Classic "The VPI Scout sounds almost dark and slow"Funny how those of us who said that same thing at the time of the Scout's release were pilloried. I have not heard the Classic so I am not offering an opinion, but I am a little shocked at the change of a... | |
| Any experience with Mozart Phono Eq + Step=up ? I want something like this eventually. Pity Hagerman stopped making his. Any experience with Graham's Jazz Club or Revelation? Pity I can afford the AMR phono stage.Gregg | |
| vintage turntables? Musicgioni,What decent 60's vintage tables had you listened to? I don't see any restored vintage tube amps. Is it all 70's stuff that you're touting as your vintage experience? I am sure the Comet does hold its own against a myriad of 70's tables,... | |
| wyred4sound amps Yerude1 I've found the Wyred4Sound ST500 to be a very good amp. I was told (and read on line) that the 250 was one to avoid as it had a different chipset and was not the sonic mate of the other two amps in the line. If someone told you the amp was... | |
| 78 rpm & related cds To answer part of your question country blues 78's can go for low hundreds to low thousands (of $). I don't know what Chicago blues 78's go for. It must be fun, but it's a well trod field, if you know what I mean. See Ghost World or Crumb to see t... | |
| Van Alstine? 85, So, you actually bring nothing to the table. In addition you have proven my analogy with your insistence that mass market amps sound exactly like high end audio amps. Thank you. | |
| Van Alstine? 85,Can you give me a list or several pairs of currently manufactured amps that measure the same. I'd like to see if I can set something up. Or is this just some airey-fairey postur? If it's true it can be repeated. | |
| Van Alstine? Kristian85 I know what you mean. Luckily in New York City I can walk into Best Buy and go directly to Sound by SInger, and you know what the systems in those stores sound exactly the same.One can lead a hear to music, but one can't make it hear.GD | |
| Van Alstine? Kristian85,For someone so quick to criticize, you have to admit, that without listening one has at best 1/2 the story. The biggest blowhard on audio is the Amazing Randi, the "measurements are all crowd" seem pointed in the same direction. Pity he... | |
| Wright WPP100C Phono Preamp Died Thanks for the replies. I'm going to check the fuse. Also, I've played around with the tubes quite a bit. It was a working fine one day, not working the next sort of thing.Ten years without rolling tubes. I'd love to have that sort of patience or ... | |
| Spin Clean Record Washer The price of the Spin Clean is now $79.99. I hope they put the extra $ to fix some quality issues. I may still get one. I have a VPI, but there are many time I'd like to clean in silence. | |
| VPI Enthusiasts: Going Backwards? I would look (listen) before jumping to the Classic. HW himself has stated that the Scout and Classic are comparable in many ways, one dong some aspects of vinyl playback better than the other. So it's a lateral move. You'll have to find the post ... | |
| Robert Johnson's records mastered at wrong speed? I hope this turns out to be true. Still two different recording sessions and was only Robert Johnson sped up? My general skepticism give me pause......I go in and out of country blues phases, and though I have the 2 LPs and the CD box, I've never ... | |
| Harbeth or Coincident #1, but I don't know that the efficiency rating of the monitors means much in actual listening. Does the Cayin have the juice to produce real dynamics (bounce not volume). WIth your taste in music, they'll be a sub in your future too, I bet.Gregg |
