| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) You may not want the Dragon if you make your own recordings, Dragon is the ultimate machine with reverse for playing cassettes recorded on other decks with its continuous playback head azimuth adjustment. Dragon is not particularly reliable, costl... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) However, I fully understand the interest in this Technics. Unfortunately, only few of us will be able to get it. Any audiophile can afford decent open reel deck. The more people are interested in it the more master tape dubs we will see, perhaps e... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Those mentioned record collectors are criminals by audiophile standards. | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Yeah, well, ideally you need a few sources - R2R, turntable and digital, and that's exactly what I am after, only for now it is Nakamichi 682ZX cassette deck for compilations and background music instead of Studer. Taping from friends' vinyl is a ... | |
| What's the weak link in my system? Problem with big turntable upgrade is that soon after that you will want to follow up with cartridge, phono stage and tonearm cable upgrades. But if you are thinking about it, I would not upgrade either cartridge or phono stage right now, especial... | |
| Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what? Tubes are still around because at their best they sound more correctly.Rega is not really a name for amplification, the idea to try another amp is a progressive one. Trying both solid state and tube amps would be perfect. Better amps not necessari... | |
| What's the weak link in my system? It certainly might. I just didn't want to say that your entire analog rig could use a big improvement. In my mind, upgrading turntable is a serious step, almost as serious as upgrading speakers. Ususally, most people keep their good turntables for... | |
| What's the weak link in my system? Hard to tell. Do you use any power conditioner?I would probably get motor controller for the turntable first, then think about trying some passive or active power conditioner, then better cartridge and phono stage, then cables and power cords. | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) lewm, records can cost just as much and more. Tapes too can cost much more than $100. I am very selective and don't need too many, nor do I need to have them all right away.$15k turntable plus tonearm, cartridge and phono is also only for the well... | |
| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? Pissing contest. That's exactly what Pass was talking about - a lot of that but virtually no progress.I won. | |
| Upgrade path from Wilson WattPuppy 7s? - seeking advice Let me see. Whas has not been mentioned yet?.. Got it ! What you really want is Kharma. Powered by Lamm electronics it is one of a very few dream systems. Focal's better Utopias will be quite good with tubes too.However, as someone said, and I alm... | |
| Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what? Nor do you buy Klipsch to listen to opera, I guess. Speakers don't play equally well everything, what "some people say" is puzzling. | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Yes, Albert was talking about his Mk3 with top arms and cartridges. He's got two of them with four arms.Still, the tape rules and it will. I'd rather get Studer for $5k or so, add another $5k to make it near perfect and chase master tape dubs.Stud... | |
| Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what? stereo5, what speakers are you talking about? | |
| Just retired and want to get back to vinyl listening $500 Okki Nokki machine with Audio Intelligent three step fluid system and three Disc Doctor brushes works just fine. The key is to soak with fluid one and two before vacuuming off regardless of how vinyl looks. I usually soak for about 10 minutes... |
