| Best table in $1500 range I am an analog newbie for sure, but with the science behind antiskate, other manufacturers' incrementally adjustable compensation devices, and the fact that you can measure it, just "eyeballing" it by twisting a wire is sorta strange- but then aga... | |
| Best table in $1500 range Although it's been out for a while, noone seems to own one, but me. It is my first "real" table, and I bought after much research. I'm happy with my purchase, and with the music.I got a Michell Tecnodec from Gene Rubin Audio, as a demo, with Miche... | |
| Long-Term Storage of Equipment wow.Excellent work | |

| Tight-Budget Tube Integrated... Help I am at a loss.I, too have seen those Radii amps and licked my chops.I wish you good luck in your search for a good tubed integrated for under $500.THe only thing that I know of would be a Pair of the ASL wave 8 mono amps and a cheap Creek volume ... | |
| Long-Term Storage of Equipment Good suggestions!Thanks.Anyone Else? | |
| Audioquest upper end copper IC's sound ???? I've never tried Kimber Selects, but I've heard Diamondx2, Diamondx3, and Lapisx3 (all silver, and all discontinued) and I wouldn't call then grainy or "low resolution"(these, and the Anaconda mentioned above are silver cables)I have, currently, O... | |
| Dat to CDR? I am not a big dead-head, but I laughed my ass off at the reference to the "touch-of-grey heads." I know exactly what you mean.It's funny, it is a self-serving prophecy.Tapers as buttholes.I was at the House of Blues in North Myrtle Beach, SC tapi... | |
| Dat to CDR? heheTapers.the "digi-bias" is real.Analog patch??- uh, no.The reason I stopped dragging my mics around is that you can D/L something OR in 99% of the situations, know someone (trustafarians) with a rig 10x better than yours.Plus, it's hard to shak... | |
| Cartridge for Gyro SE/ Rega RB300 &Slee Gold Era V Being completely new to "real" analog playback, I cannot suggest that I've compared carts. Audiogon member Twl has teh cart/arm "matching" knowledge you seek, however many analog-friendly dealers would be able to suggest a good match to the widely... | |
| Cartridge for Gyro SE/ Rega RB300 &Slee Gold Era V I have a Michell Tecnodec, Rega Rb 250, and a Graham Slee Era Gold MK V, not exactly whay you're using, but similar, and I enjoy my CLearaudio Aurum Beta S wood body cart.The Virtuoso Wood is supposedly better, retails for $800, but is available h... | |
| good phono amp under 1000? Graham Slee Era Gold MKVit's pretty awesome for the $$...Manufacturer website: (see reviewer comments)http://www.gspaudio.co.uk/preamps/era-gold.htmLinks to reviews:http://www.elexatelier.com/EraGoldMkV.pdf(Stereophile Class A)http://www.tnt-audio... | |
| What about JA Michell tecnodec I have one and love it, although it's my first "real" table, so I am not much use for comparison.I love it!! | |
| Aurum Beta S, Wood version? I have one also.Only recently, in Clearaudio's Manufacturer's comments to the recent table/arm review (Emotion/Satisfy, I think) in S'phile, and somewhere else have I read that they are now making all MM carts available in metal or wood bodies.TO ... | |
| Setting up RB 300? If the cartridge was aligned by the dealer (I got an almost identical setup from Gene Rubin about a month ago) all you have to adjust is VTA, which can be done by ear/sight.I am by no means a vinyl expert, but if you bought from a dealer, and they... |
