| Replace 2M Black or new phono? Hi Manfredas - I have the same turntable as you. I had a 2M Black and now am running a HOMC, the Sumiko Evo III which, subjectively to me, sounds a whole lot better.I'm running mine into a Schiit Mani preamp that is separately powered by an upgra... | |
| Review: Schiit Mani phono pre AND Swagman Labs Linear Power Supply (LPS) Well, I've never actually taken the unit apart, but I've seen online photos of the Mani and there isn't any internal shielding. The original "high-end" cables that I tried with the Mani initially never created any problems with other phono stages... | |
| Review: Schiit Mani phono pre AND Swagman Labs Linear Power Supply (LPS) tablejockey - The LPS makes a significant difference.Also - The term "budget" is obviously subjective, but I wouldn't consider my table or system either; but I do agree, that it WOULD be a great pairing for a budget system- you could certainly do ... | |
| Oh man, I broke my class D amp. Make fun of me. Then help. Todd - I'm sorry about the family stuff and I couldn't possible help there but if:"my wife, the breadwinner, just said "buy some new ones"" - I can guarantee you that I'd have a UPS tracking number within 5 minutes (and I love my setup)!At least o... | |
| Tape-in and Tape-out ports To point out another obvious one - the tape loop (with monitor switch on/off) is also useful for connecting an EQ in the signal path on any source. Would apply to any effects processing actually. I haven't used them this way in years, but have u... | |
| Oh man, I broke my class D amp. Make fun of me. Then help. Todd - Is the clicking coming from the amp or through the connected speaker? Also, is the clicking present even with no input to the amp?Depending on the above answers, you should probably also check your speakers by swapping them from one amp to... | |
| Pro Ject RM1.3 Any Good! I'm with Ruebent on this one. A few years ago, I had this table for all of a week before taking it back to my dealer to get something significantly better (and have since upgraded again). For the money I think it's OK, but seriously, the lack of... | |
| Need Amp Advice Killgurt - Have a look at my prior post. Essentially what you do is integrate a 2 channel stereo preamp that has HT (home theater) bypass functionality. The way it works is that it would be connected directly to your amp all the time and would o... | |
| Need Amp Advice Welcome KillergurtAssuming that budget isn't a consideration, then a very obvious solution for 2-channel stereo would be a pair of the CA-M600s and also add a CP-800 (utilizing HT-Bypass) for all of your 2-channel music sources.This setup is actua... | |
| Thinking of replacing my Bat spaceheater with class D, real world thoughts please Uberwaltz - I've been using one of the earlier Ice powered D-Sonic amps for around 5 years now and I couldn't be happier with it. My main interest initially was that I needed something with enough power that I could use to push my Nautilus 800s t... | |
| Looking to upgrade my towers Jmccl12 - I've used a PRSC-5508 for both home theater and 2 channel stereo and for 2 channel stereo it sounds absolutely spectacular provided that you run in Pure Audio mode with all Audessey room correction and EQ fully bypassed.Back in the day, ... | |
| Too Many Forums asking about how to improve ones system, etc. Bigkidz - I don't normally chime in on these sorts of threads but have to say that at any given moment I know exactly what the weakest points are in my system because I can hear them. At the end of the day, the most important part of any system ... | |
| Ground Hum with Rega RP6, Exact and TT PSU. Hi pivetta- In addition to what Stefani brings up, you might want to try one of the following (or both having been through this recently with a new phono pre and turntable).I too had a bad hum and what solved it for me was to place the phono pre a... | |

| B&W Speaker Score! Dastro - You obviously know what you're doing and you are totally correct that with bass filter that you're going to get more perceived extension out of your matrix speakers - which it's great to know that you love them so much.Perhaps in the end ... |
