| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone My wife's and my most sincere condolences go out to the Malone family and friends. Only by chance did I find this thread two weeks ago, but chose not to contribute until now. Like many in our Audiogon community, I had never had the good fortune of... | |
| Linn Sondek ? Assuming you are using the Linn Ittok tonearm, I would recommend the Wasatch Ultama phono interconnect.http://www.wasatchcableworks.com/ULTAMA%20PHONO.htmWhile it's pricey, I love the way it mates with this table and arm. | |
| JVC XL-Z1050 weight? I have an XL-Z1050TN, modded by Stan Warren. The manual lists its weight as 17 lbs. | |
| Anyone using NITES on their CD player?? I have been happily using the Virtual Dynamics Nite pc on my Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MKII cd player for the past year. This cable has surpassed my expectations for what a power cable can do for a music system. The Nite pc seems to work particulary ... | |
| Speakers for Naim? I was at Pro Musica in Chicago recently and they had Dynaudio speakers connected to many of their Naim components. The systems I heard there all seemed to have the synergy thing going. However, the new Naim NAP 250 amplifier sounded excellent thro... | |
| Anyone use Kef 104.2 speakers with a REL subwoofer Although I use Star Sound Technologies products, including Systrum Platforms and Audio Points for all of my components, including under my Avalon Arcus loudspeakers, the use of spikes is not necessarily a good thing when using RELs, according to t... | |
| B&W Signature 805 vs Sonus Faber Cremona Auditor? Yesterday, I was fortunate to be able to listen to the Cremona Auditor's at my local dealer. This dealer has a custom built single-speaker listening room approximately 18'w x 24'l x 12'h i size. The Auditor was being driven by an Audio Research VT... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1 Spider Clamp. Anyone Try? I have found them to be very nice, but it usually takes weeks to get a reply. Thanks for the e-mail address. I'll give it a try. | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1 Spider Clamp. Anyone Try? I e-mailed EC on the Spider Clamp availability, and of course received their typical, no reply. It looks as if it might improve the already great anti-vibration of the EMC-1, if you could get one. | |
| Electrocompaniet owners It seems that EC has again changed their "policy" regarding the US distributor's unwillingness to service Danish-sourced units. This policy directly contradicts the e-mail EC sent to me last month where they said, "Our policy is to help coustomers... | |
| Anyone familiar with the None-Felt Turntable Mat? I use it on my Linn LP-12 and and agree with the observations of Dannylw. I also find that the presentation of music seems more transparent and displays more stable imaging than with the supplied felt mat. YMMV, but this mat is made for tables lik... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1: let's talk? I agree that this missing feature isn't such a glaring problem that you would ask for your money back. It's just so stupid to leave out a feature that appears on almost every other player in existence! I mean, how could you not list the track time... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1: let's talk? You mean EC still hasn't "fixed" this on the newest players? This option, unbelievably, is not available on any EMC-1 CD player. I was not too thrilled when I discovered this fact after buying mine. Afterall, having never seen this option excluded... | |
| Electrocompaniet owners I have a similar situation to Ernie's, in that I bought an EMC-1 MKII last year which turned out to be sold through the Danish distributor. I decided to inquire directly with EC about the U.S distributor's poor handling of non-U.S point of origin ... | |
| Blue laser in CDP? My Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MK II emits a blue light inside the cd transport while playing, but I don't know if it's from a blue laser. |
