| rega P8 Ania pro setup questions Thanks for this, ejlif. I've long been thinking the Planar 8 with the Anna Pro could be my next -- and final? -- turntable. Set it and forget it is exactly what I want. I like to play records and enjoy the music rather than futzing with VTA, etc. ... | |
| rega P8 Ania pro setup questions Glad you found the problem. How are you liking the Planar 8 and Ania Pro so far? -- Howard | |
| Bands/artists you never got to see live in their heyday, but would've liked to. Zeppelin, absolutely. | |
| Get a load of this Deceptive add for a Gryphon Amp here on AG I live in Massachusetts. Wonder where in the Bay State the amp's actual owner is. (I do, in fact, live in Massachusetts, but I'm just kidding, by the way, about wondering where the amp's actual owner is. Because I'm really quite funny, don't ya kn... | |
| The Beatles - Remastered Music - any updates ? I surely hope that the 50th anniversary editions are deSpectorized! If so, there'll doubtless be some interesting stuff.-- Howard | |
| CDP or DAC? I picked up a used Moon Audio 260D -- which is both a CDP and transport -- some months back, and couldn't be happier. I love it both when used as a player and when streaming into the DAC. I believe it costs about $3,300 new these days, but can be ... | |
| Subwoofer connection conundrum Thanks for all of these responses, gents. I'll get a pair of SVS 1000 Pros, will endeavor to position them asymmetrically (as much as is possible given the limitations of my room, obviously), hooking them up with single-ended runs. That said, I'm ... | |
| Subwoofer connection conundrum Perhaps Miller Carbon is not familiar with some of the new class D technologies. For the edification of someone who might run across this thread at some point down the line, here's a post from our friends at REL:Here’s where Class D amps get weird... | |
| Subwoofer connection conundrum Here's what's got me nervous about using the speaker outputs:The C 298 manual says the following:The blue terminals must never be connected to ground (earth).Never connect the blue terminals together or to any common grounddevice.Do not connect th... | |
| Technics I was just now looking at Adirondack Audio's Website and noted that they've also got a store in southern Vermont, perhaps a bit less than an hour and a half from where I live in Western Massachusetts. I'll be getting in touch with them soon. Thank... | |
| Technics Thanks, @stereo5. I actually phoned Fidelis a couple of months ago and was told that they no longer carried Technics. When I mentioned that I had seen them listed on the Technics site but that they no longer appeared there, the salesman said, incr... | |
| Technics What is a Technics dealer? (Just kidding, of course.) I asked on here a bit back if anyone had noticed that the list of places to buy has greatly decreased in recent months. Last I checked, there wasn't a single Technics dealer in the whole of New... | |
| Marty Stuart on Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: My girlfriend back in college (in the 1970s) used to say of some album she was into at any given moment: "They are the best band in the world -- like so many other bands, of course." | |
| Dumb question? No big deal at all. Happy listening.-- Howard | |
| Does Steely Dan sound bright to you? I recall a similar question on Audiogon some -- many? -- years back, and remember a beautiful wiseacre answer that went something like this: Well, they are called "Steely Dan," not "Bass-Heavy Dan." Or words to that effect. Did a quick search but ... |
