| A perfect song? What are your choices? @cd318 Donovan is making a big comeback. judging from vinyl prices | |
| A perfect song? What are your choices? Bobby Darin has a lot to contribute to this post. | |
| What should I upgrade first on my budget system? I would not call it a budget system. Biggest bang for the buck? The turntable? I know nothing about your speakers but they look very serious. Not the best match to your amp though, depending on your space/room size (very broad generalization: i... | |
| To pricey @lalitk i had heard them, in my home. I didn't like them. Other people love them. That's exactly how it works, we find that there is no ultimate list, we all have different favorites. | |
| To pricey @801d "any other brands to consider" B&W would not be in the top 10 of my list. Dynaudio, Totem, Revel, Monitor Audio are all great in smaller spaces which is what I have and I tested these and were very happy with them. BBC ones - I have ... | |
| To bolt Standmounts to stands, or not? I used LOCTITE fun-tak mounting putty (and never looked back). Its name may vary, like Bluetac in Europe? | |
| To pricey they are not. We can split it, so that you only pay 50% | |
| how were copies of vinyl made in "third-party" countries @whart cool, thank you. I am amazed by how different they sound and how my rating in the store fails me. I only buy records for myself and I only buy used and these pointers are very useful. Now I have to see if I can apply it :) | |

What you are describing is somewhat blurred to me by the MoFi story. Is this a fair assumption? >> old LPs (pre 90s) may be inferior quality but lik... | |
| Most underrated female recording artists.. Joanie Sommers - the biggest range and the most beautiful voice for sure, I have ever heard Frazey Ford - the indie queen Sally Carr - no words, her voice will do it I saw some Hungarian names: Zsuzsa Cserhati was a super-talent, and Zalatnay a... | |
| how were copies of vinyl made in "third-party" countries @steve_wisc I enjoy it a lot too. I learned way more than if I had googled it for hours. Some of these commenters are the coolest, most knowledgeable people! | |
| Starting from scratch in a large room this thread definitely has a lot of "amazing" suggestions and explains why audiophiles are ridiculed. The dude wants good sound, from a good looking system. He doesn't want Doc Brown crawling on the floor finding imperfections that affect the sou... | |
| how were copies of vinyl made in "third-party" countries @bkeske yes I am sure it varies within a country, a factory, a time of day, as I am learning here. I probably wouldn't play my russian copies much these days anyway. | |
| Starting from scratch in a large room @sandstone expensive cables at this point will be a total waste | |
| how were copies of vinyl made in "third-party" countries @bkeske my Russian LPs are way worse than the rest. And the Hungarian ones after 1985 are way worse than pre1985 |
