| Favorite poorly-recorded albums Mahavishnu Orchestra - Inner Mounting Flame ( pretty bad )Mahavishnu Orchestra - Birds Of Fire ( even worse )Yngwie Malmsteen with Japan Philharmonic ( terrible ) | |
| DiMarzio cables I never tried dat or cd recorder if that's what you mean. And if you meant how the recording made on my Nak compares to the cd player that I use (CEC belt drive player), then I can tell you that except for extra background noise it is usually a li... | |
| Buying Tubes Again; Maddening Now what do you call long and short lasting tubes? Just curious.As for complaining, audiophiles and people in general always find something to complain about. | |
| DiMarzio cables I use my finely tuned and aligned 682ZX on an almost daily basis. I make compilations from LPs and CDs and for background music coming from another room this is perfect. | |
| Buying Tubes Again; Maddening I would stay with what sounds good unless I wanted even better. How long do they last and how much do you pay for the set? They don't last 500 hours, do they? | |
| What started you on your audiophile journey . There were many influences before that, but once I heard my new friend's stereo which was a great mid-fi, I got into it more seriously. | |
| Turntable / Arm combo for around $2000. new. Nottingham, Michell, Origin Live, VPI, Clearaudio will all sound different. Not to mention cartridges. What kind of sound are you looking for? They may also require to various degree different isolation approaches and particular choice of these pr... | |
| Monitor suggestions Yeah, white may be the biggest problem. For $3000 there are so many good ones especially used. And aesthetics is such a subjective thing. How can we advise on this? | |
| DiMarzio cables No, I have not, I use Purist Audio Colossus speaker cables that work so well with my amp and speakers. But since you are going to use DiMarzio, why not give the interconnect a try too? Usually I advocate one brand approach though in my case I just... | |
| Dynavector 20x2H You wanted to ask how long it would take to break the stylus of your new cartridge? Well, it depends, but 50 hours is more than enough, that's for sure. | |
| Turntable / Arm combo for around $2000. new. The man wants to buy a new table. Spacedeck/Spacearm would be $3500 or so new in the US. Interspace Junior with arm might be around $2000, I am not sure. | |
| How important is the preamp? If you want separates and not integrated, yeah, get the amp you like and then work your way up the chain. I would probably but not necessarily prefer good integrated with the phono in this case. What are your speakers? You will want to replace you... | |
| Is there an average life span for a preamp? How do I treat the capacitors well besides providing enough space for ventilation? Do I talk to them and say that they are good boys and girls? Any suggestions? | |
| Why are modern arms so ugly? Ugly people - ugly arms. No surprise here. | |
| Interconnect Help Yes, power conditioner does make a difference. Even my inexpensive Furman 1215 did, especially in highs and upper midrange. Also, in my system it did nothing bad which is just as important. But better ones are quite expensive even used, starting a... |
