| Goodbye Everyone @elliottbnewcombjr I also have enjoyed and learned from your postings. Still somewhat of a newbie, I have often referred to your postings for quite a few topics. Hopefully you will check in from time to time. All the best to you! | |
| Current sensing phono stages w/Rega? I agree 100% with @plinko. @jc51373 I like my RP8 and can only imagine how your P10 sounds. So far, the synergy with my turntable and the Konus has been great! Hope you find a sensible and easy solution and can enjoy your setup. | |
| Current sensing phono stages w/Rega? @jc51373 I use the subsonic filter because my woofer cones were visibly oscillating. I have never noticed any hum. I get the balanced connection issue now. This was something I didn't pay attention to when I got my RP8. But I agree with you tha... | |
| First phono stage upgrade @gestalt Hi Colin! Apologies for the long overdue shout out! Yes. Absolutely loving the Konus! Definitely a made a big improvement with the turntable and cartridge, and in my listening room, and my ears. What I posted doesn't quite lend justic... | |
| Current sensing phono stages w/Rega? @jc51373 The filter is KAB RF1 Subsonic Filter KAB Electro Acoustics http://www.kabusa.com Konus >> KAB RF1 >> Bryston BP 26 preamp You mentioned: This is mainly due to Regas old school ground wiring scheme. Has your P10 been rewir... | |
| Current sensing phono stages w/Rega? @jc51373 Yes. I also added an inline subsonic filter with no issues. The only change to my Rega was a new cartridge (Ania Pro MC) which was installed at a local HiFi shop. | |
| Current sensing phono stages w/Rega? @jc51373 I posted a response to you in another thread. My older Rega RP8 is working very well with the Konus 1000 MC. Unfortunate that you are experiencing this. I have had my Konus and Rega set up for a while now with no issues. The upgrade ha... | |
| First phono stage upgrade @jc51373 I did get the Konus. It is the Vinyle 1000 MC. But first, a huge shout out to Colin King at Gestalt Audio. I had a great customer experience. Colin is extremely knowledgeable and generous with his time. He helped me cut through lots of... | |
| Best Way four Bass Array @audiokinesis Hi Duke! Always great to read and learn from your postings! I am also interested in your satellite speaker. Where does it crossover? @jeffseight I have been thoroughly enjoying my DBA from Audiokinesis in 5 different rooms (the sma... | |
| Over or under? - Standmount isolation @erik_squires Exactly. Which is why I was curious about seeing them placed below the stands. But if placed below the stands, should the speakers be spiked to the stand? Or additionally isolated? Just rest it directly on the stand? | |
| Finding (calculating?) speaker and amp impedance Wow! Lots to consider. I guess my real concern is knowing if my amps have "high enough" current for speakers that present a challenging load. Surprisingly (to me) was finding out that my old 80 db sensitive little monitors are known to be great ... | |
| Current sensing phono stages w/Rega? All these responses are greatly appreciated!!! But now I'm not clear on my cartridge impedance working well with current sensing phono stages. @drbond Not sure if I want to upgrade from the Ania Pro I just purchased. But thanks for pointing out ... | |
| First phono stage upgrade @lalitk I got in touch with Colin. Thanks for the referral! Trying out the Konus Audio Vinyle 1000 MC MKII. It should arrive sometime next week. Interesting that it is current sensing (vs voltage sensing). I am very curious to try it as I am aud... | |
| First phono stage upgrade The power supply option is called Linear Charging Power Supply (LCPS). I checked out the gestalt audio site. Might reach out to Colin and check out the suggested units. But they are located in Nashville. I live in Massachusetts. Maybe Colin can ... | |
| Maybe this is the winter you build something! I’m just starting out with DIY. Decided to make some balanced interconnects. Great way to learn/practice soldering! Fun and satisfying too! Also saved a lot percentage wise vs buying new. A bit early for Winter. Great thread @erik_squires! |
