| Phono stage question I would first upgrade tubes in your Cary unless you have already done so.You would also need extra set of interconnects and probably power cord for separate phono stage. And you didn't say what cartridge you used.And separate phono stage should ma... | |
| The Lifespan of an LP? Right, vinyl is not solid, stylus disturbs it and damages it a little, I suppose. | |
| What frustrates you the most about seller’s for sale ads? When consider buying something on usaudiomart, I always ask whether or not the price is firm. I don't make any offers before the seller says that I can. Here on Audiogon it is clear, yes or no.Yeah, pictures of speakers with grills on is a good wa... | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. It is not pointless. Many people have their systems in living rooms and cannot do their best in terms of making it the best acoustical place.Erik doesn’t play analog and listens to Luxman integrated. Not very high standards. In fact...alright, I s... | |
| The Lifespan of an LP? Hmm, so it remains a kind of hypothesis.I listen to some records often enough but not every day or every other day. I also clean them after 10-15 plays. For background music I listen to Nakamichi tape deck. | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. You can make it more or less acceptable but if you want the best sound you got to treat the room, though I call it to tune the room. Sounds more correctly, less mechanical. Room as a musical instrument. | |
| The Lifespan of an LP? I heard it is not a good idea to play a record more often than once a day. They say it needs time to 'recover', whatever it is. | |
| I have a serious phobia problem with cleaning records I also have Okki Nokki machine but I use Audio Intelligent fluids and have no fear of doing anything bad to the records.I am sure Walker is fine too. I would also trust Walter Davis of Last Factory with anything he makes. For records and for tapes. | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound No, we won't give up, but they should find a way to make better recordings. We will appreciate that greatly. | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Tubes are better but not at everything. They are also very expensive to do right, tens of thousands of dollars equipment. | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Do they take custom orders at Better Records ? To find hot stamper of a particular record for an agreed price. | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound I am absolutist and proud of it.As I mentioned, microphones are unadvanced devices. First, improve them. There is no music recorded well. | |
| What frustrates you the most about seller’s for sale ads? What I don't like most ? Price. | |
| The Lifespan of an LP? I use Last record preservative. Don't know about vinyl wear but records sound a touch better after treatment. Last has been proven to be a good stuff, I heard. | |
| Can a $750 system sound good? Well, good no but not too bad maybe.Used original Audiolab integrated - $250.Some used DVD or CD player - $150.This leaves $350 for used older speakers and cables.Yeah, there will be some sound coming out. |
