| Curious .. What is the compared price of your tt vs spkrs Yeah, first things you do are room acoustics and wall current.Oleschool, I once heard Paco de Lucia perform in a great concert hall playing incredible custom Conde flamenco guitar. Now that was a sound I will never forget, not to mention the music. | |
| Curious .. What is the compared price of your tt vs spkrs It appears that most of us agree that underperforming front end doesn't cut it, no matter how good the speakers might be. Or amps for that matter. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Rinpoche,I have an unusual suggestion.I suspect that you have a good hearing.Go to www.mundo-flamenco.com ; it is a place that sells good acoustic guitars. Click on the 'guitars' and listen to the guitars that are not for sale. It's MP3 but you ca... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Yes, Mogami cables. One of the reasons why the recordings are of poor quality. They are okay at best nothing more. You don't want this stuff for Rowland and VAC. DiMarzio is better, I still keep the RCA pair, but I don't think he makes them any lo... | |
| What makes an expensive speaker expensive But...if you have a very big room and listen to orchestra and want great sound - cost of the speakers and amps will be much higher. Other than that, $100k for the entire system is more than enough, in my opinion. In used prices this would be, say,... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I mentioned Purist Audio cables. They have a cult following, not that it is the only great brand. Cables can really make or break the system because signal transmission is just or almost just as important as signal processing. If you decide to buy... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC First thing I play when testing a system is album entitled 'Cielo e Terra' by Al Di Meola. It is atmospheric mesmerising acoustic guitar music.Next I play vocal by Dead Can Dance. Then Bitches Brew by Miles Davis, then Inner Mounting Flame by Maha... | |
| Anti skating on Michell Tecnodec - Yes No Maybe ? Just set it by ear. Now this might be a little complicated because you may prefer different settings with different records. I had this kind of fun but eventually found the best overall point. It was not zero but it was less the half the range. | |
| Curious .. What is the compared price of your tt vs spkrs I just wanted to add that the $350 MM cartridge that I have, it's UK price, it is, I think, at least $500 in the US.$2k for analogue new - I don't see how it might be enough; used - I could try. | |
| What makes an expensive speaker expensive Having said that, I do think that really good speakers should and have the right to be quite expensive. But $100k ? Give me a break. You can buy a sure path to American citizenship for a little over $500k, and you won't lose anything in the end, i... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hi.I suggested Kharma/LAMM/Purist Audio because this combination could be your reference point even if you cannot afford it new but maybe you can used. Besides, you appear to fluctuate between solid state and tube electronics of similar level, and... | |
| What makes an expensive speaker expensive Well, I guess latest smartphones that sell for $800 cost no more than $50 to make. Most things are way overpriced, but then again many people are overpaid or simply make money by doing virtually nothing. Sad but not really surprising. For some $10... | |
| Best current footers for preamps? Hold it in the air.Your question makes no sense whatsoever. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Call me names if you wish, but I suggest you get rid of Wilsons and start listening to various speakers/amp combinations. In a few months you might end up with something truly great. Your wallet appears to be pretty good if not exactly perfect..In... | |
| Curious .. What is the compared price of your tt vs spkrs I don't have a formula but I have a few rules that I try to follow.Analogue front end should be very strong or all will be for nothing. I believe that the table itself is the most important part of it, then the arm, then the phono and then the car... |
