Nakamichi deck directly into power amplifier
Al, appreciate it. But you upset me - Rowland is not a very good match. 
Nakamichi deck directly into power amplifier
Al, thank you. I was thinking about Rowland 102, now that Jeff finally made an amp that many can afford. His website doesn't give the input sensitivity figure; will have to send him a message.Yogiboy, I can't try it with the Audiolab though it doe... 
Sennheiser HD 650's thin sounding?
Yeah...I had them for much longer than 500 hours. To be blunt - they are piece of...you know. Even 50000 won't change them. Resolution is not bad but the rest of them is totally unacceptable. Cheapest Grado sound much better overall. Sorry. 
12 inch Graham Phantom
This is not an easy question to answer. And a lot depends on the recording. 
12 inch Graham Phantom
What it is attached to is important as well, don't you think? Going deep into the groove..Fascinating.

Comment of the month indeed. Great. 
Bitches Brew
I know this - original 2 eye 360 sound sounds good. Hard to get a Mint copy though. 
Rega Planar 2 vs Project RM4
I don't think it would, both should be better. Not sure about RM4, Xpression sounds good even with included cheap cartridge. You will probably want to add speed controler if you go with Pro-ject - definite improvement. Rega is good too and very po... 
Revox cassette decks
I see. It appears that no one so far thinks that Revox is worth getting. Yes, this Nak sounds great. I bought it 10 years ago on ebay in excellent condition, put probably 3000 hours on it, never serviced, and it plays exactly as when I first tried... 
Reel to Reel decks
Thank you both. Well, there is Studer A-810 here for sale - a bit too much; would be a great choice, I guess. There is also Technics RS-1500 on ebay that plays 4 track tapes in addition to 2 track play/record; and Revox PR99. 
cartridge for Pro-ject debut III
Wouldn't Grado Gold work well too? I myself am not sure. 
Revox cassette decks
What about ZX-9 and Tandberg 3014, 3014A ? They might be a little better, right? But so expensive. 
What is Half track and quarter track?
Hifigy, I didn't see dualhead Studers, Revoxes or Tandbergs on ebay. This must be custom version, I suppose. 
Reel to Reel decks
When it comes to reel to reel I know nothing. Could you people tell me which one would sound better, assuming the same model of course - two track at 7.5 ips or four track at 15 ips? In other words, speed or tape width? 
"They are here" vs. "You are there"
'They are here'. I want them to perform for me.
