| Plinius M16 or Plinius M8???? My M16P works well with SA102 even though I think SA102 can do better with a better preamp. I have not heard M8, but I also had CD-LAD. I could not hear any difference between CD-LAD and M16P. I think M8 and M16 would not sound much different eith... | |
| Which Allnic? H-1202 or H-1201? Looks like H1205 supports 2 MMs and 2 MCs. It may be more like H1500. https://www.dropbox.com/s/o5gd8h9i6tf6gic/AllnicH1205.jpg?dl=0 | |
| New to analog Best bang for the buck is to find a used turntable for sale from local audiophiles. But it does not come as often as it used to be.As suggested, Technics 1200GR with $300 ~ $500 MM cartridge and similarly priced phono preamp would work nicely with... | |
| Which Allnic? H-1202 or H-1201? I will see if 1202 sounds that good. Anyway, I have three arms working, and will have two more arms functioning shortly, so the Hashimoto SUT and Magi phono won't go away.By the way, the new H1205 looks so pretty good. I wonder how much it will be... | |
| Crosley should be arrested for selling junk You are absolutely right. AT-LP120 is rather a nice entry level turntable for a high school student. The cartridge that comes with (AT95E) is pretty good too. | |
| Which Allnic? H-1202 or H-1201? Thanks for your response. Save yourself from the obsession of "which one is better?" opinions. Your ears are the only judge. That's a really wise advice, but I can't still stop asking. These kind of questions may sound silly and they all sound l... | |
| Crosley should be arrested for selling junk Junk in one's eyes may appear to be gems in other's eyes.My kids' friend (high school senior) owns Audio Technica AT-LP120-USB, and asked me for an advice to change the mat to make it sound better. I just told him that his turntable is fine and I... | |
| New Hobby Ultrasonic Record Cleaning That's a real bargain.I paid a little over $300 a couple years ago. Mine looks almost the same except that it takes up to 5 LPs. However, the space in between LPs is so narrow, and I just use three LPs at a time. Using Kodak Photo-Flo 2000 for sol... | |
| Don't buy Allnic H1201 phono stage new. Has anybody seriously compared H-1201 with H-1202?Other than solid state vs tube power supply, any sonic and/or design difference between the two? | |
| Sound quality impact - preamp vs power amp? On my system, I get more sound difference from power amps than preamps. My power amps - Plinius SA102, Audio Research 150M.2, Jungson JA99C. My pre amps - Plinius M16-P, PrimaLuna Dialogue Primium, Jungson JA1.On my most recent upgrade path, I dec... | |
| Album which you have listened to most? Bach violin solos, cello solos.Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing. | |
| Late Night Jazz John Coltrane - Ballads | |
| Best Speakers You Have Ever Heard In Your Home It was Apogee Diva.Now Gershman Grand Avant Garde. | |
| Substantial Upgrade Adding another recommendation on already crowded recommendation would not help any, so I will just second Technics SL1200GR, or SL1200G if you can afford. I almost purchased SL1200GR, but changed my mind when Denon DP80 became available for local ... | |
| Anybody added a full vinyl setup to system? And? I added Denon DP80 on DK100, DA401, DL303, and HA1000 a month ago for my Christmas present. It sounds pretty good, even though I expected a bit more. |
