| Best cartridge match for a Michell Techoarm? good luck with the responses.I was sniffing around this arm over a year ago, with little to no information out there to help me I have one, and I love it. Sorry to say that I've only used it with an Aurum Beta S Wood Body Cart from Clearaudio, whi... | |
| Rogue Tempest vs Tempest II- comparisons? anyone else?Surely someone has something to say about the new Tempest? | |
| Which turntable should I buy? You could buy a Michell Tecnodec w RB 250 AND a GSP Audio Era Gold MK 5 phono preamp for $2500- most often overlooked, and ESSENTIAL to good analog is the phono pre. SPEND SOME $$ HERE, and you'll thank yourself later. | |
| Hi Fi burnout. "Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in"I, too have been there. I took 3/4 of the $$ out of my system and consolidated. I agree that the problem is this website, and viewing it more than 1 or 2 times per day.That being said, I think Audi... | |
| Amp suggestions for audiophile virgin tubes. | |
| Newbi seeking advise - why tubed pre-amp? However, even rock music sounds great with a tube system with a little bit of cojones.I started in the same place about 8 years ago. I had a Parasound amp running off of a Sony ES receiver. I got that Sony out and put a Conrad Johnson PV-10AL in t... | |
| Tonearm - Incognito VS Origin Live I know, I've read most of the posts (that's a TON)and I have no excuse...I've been baaad. | |
| Tonearm - Incognito VS Origin Live Twl, I'm familiar with your tweak, but for some reason, I just haven't gotten around to it. I will give it a try, however, as it appears to result in no damage to the arm, and to be 100% reversible if need be present. | |
| Tonearm - Incognito VS Origin Live I have a Tecnodec, RB 250 with Michell Tecnoweight, and Clearaudio Aurum Beta S wood-body cartridge. I have often wondered what to do re: rewire. I was leaning toward the Incognito rewire, but I just read the above statements, and they gave me pau... | |
| Recent Ambient/Electronica? MogwaiI heard Rock Action, on vinyl- pretty good.Astralwerks has reissued some ENo, and I think it's available on import SACD | |
| What is the best phono preamp you have heard? Anyone listened to the Graham Slee Era Gold Mk. 5? | |
| Lots of Rogue Audio M120 mono blocks Perhaps because the 150s, which have replaced the 120s, are now available. | |
| Major Questions Concerning Tube Amps..?? Yes, occasionally, distortion is higher with tube amps, but the character of the distortion is more pleasant.I know it sounds hokey, but you won't worry about the "specs" once you've heard a good tube amp.Tube amps come in all wattages, however, 5... | |
| Tube amp for JMR Trentes? I have a Rogue Tempest integrated running in Triode mode, and with ~ 30 watts output potential with 6550 tubes, I am not lacking for power. I'm sure that I could be happy with less wattage. The Tempest has been a pleasure- The guys at Rogue are TO... | |
| help me pick a phono preamp. Graham Slee Era Gold MK Vgspaudio.comI'd never heard of Graham Slee either, until I did some research. Try a search on Audioasylum, the Vinyl following is bigger over there. I found one used here on the 'goN, and it sounds incredible. Here's a rev... |
