| Which audio component would you like Santa to place under the christmas tree for you? pokey77, you ask for too much, Santa would get broke, just imagine how many people expect gifts from him. Just one item a year.And if not Studer.. well, my speaker cables are the weakest link, I would like to have Purist Neptune instead of old Pur... | |
| Michael Fremer's system Nothing against DartZeel or CH phono that he also has. Sure, it is not our business regarding his money and prices he got. It would've been even less of our business had he not mentioned the money subject from time to time. And he didn't do it in ... | |
| Whats in your second system? Just Grado headphones and computer. It sounds terrible but it's okay for youtube listening. Oh yeah, I put $14 shielded power cord on the computer, big difference, both audio and video. Thinking about adding $300 Oppo dac/headphone amp and Audioqu... | |
| Which audio component would you like Santa to place under the christmas tree for you? Studer open reel deck, what else ? | |
| Amps or Speakers which one to upgrade next The OP's question is very legitimate and something, I believe, almost each of us faces from time to time. If I had $7k to upgrade amps/speakers I would think long and hard. In my case, I would probably think that this amount is not enough to get m... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? Yes, brain is still the most sophisticated 'device'. Let's hope it stays that way. Measure Stradivarius or best Conde Hermanos guitars with your measuring instruments, the results may be interesting. | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? We'll let others decide what holds up or not and to what degree if it does. And experiment with tape and tape machines. | |
| What is it that you don't like about your speakers ? trelja, I see. I had passing thoughts of adding second system but quickly abandoned this idea and decided to concentrate on one set-up. Not only because of limited funds, another room is not big enough with a lot of furniture, no good sound can re... | |
| What is it that you don't like about your speakers ? shadorne, whatever drawbacks Michael Green free resonance speakers have, they sufficiently convey the essense of music, and that's the most important thing. As always, source, electronics and cables are all important. Yes, I wouldn't mind Lansche/... | |
| Amps or Speakers which one to upgrade next Well, upgrading both might be better, theoretically, but the question is would $7k plus the value of what he has now be enough for a jump ? | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? That's actually what I was thinking of suggesting. You just got Nottingham, set it up, see how it sounds. What if you will want to upgrade your phono stage to make it right, or replace the Shelter cartridge it will come with ? I always do one sour... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? Revox B710 and B215 should be good for your purpose, but they are expensive as well. | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? Some information is correct while some is misleading or plain wrong.The very best Nakamichi deck is 1000ZXL, Limited and regular. The very best Tandberg, aside from pro models, is 3014A and 3014 is close. Revox cannot compete at this level. Studer... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? I am not familiar with them but CR4A and CR5A should be okay for playback. I think, they were made in Taiwan not Japan, and they will not have classic warm Nakamichi sound.Tandberg 440A is good, should be around $500, I am not sure about its relia... | |
| What is it that you don't like about your speakers ? You guys are not talking about your speakers' performance. I don't like the scratches on my speakers' cabinets either.trelja, do you drive your Quads with Jadis ? Why so many speakers, it appears that you really like only Quads and Fried Valhalla ? |
