| What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly? Wywires sells directly too. That's what I use along with Purist Audio. | |
| Top 10 vintage cassette decks Even though I use aligned and calibrated by a pro Nak 682ZX with Maxell Vertex tapes on an almost daily basis, I do not recommend spending a lot on any cassette deck, including relatively high cost of maintenance. I think, 682ZX and ZX-7 are audio... | |
| Best Smaller Bookshelf Speakers For Use Exclusively With Ambient Music? Try Suspended Memories. Steve Roach, Jorge Reyes . Also, Vine Bark&Spore by them. Just a reminder that electronics is just as important, including very much for tribal/ambient music. And cables. Any good speakers should be fine. | |
| Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine? It is a 3rd world country, Nonoise. Look around. | |
| Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine? Simply. Some Western weapons given to Ukrainians end up being sold to other parties. And that's not 100 a day, that's 150-200 according to Western estimates. | |
| My last Integrated Amp: $5-10,000? Accuphase, Gryphon, Vitus or Boulder. You would have to audition them all or guess wildly. | |
| Where do you buy your vinyl? Getting records in Tokyo, now that's stylish. Disc Union, I'll remember, thank you. | |
| Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine? Let Teo speak. He'got some good points even if often exaggerated. Ukraine is a very corrupt country, war or not. Most of you guys know nothing about that place, do you ? Or about Russia, for that matter, which is also a very corrupt country. Any... | |
| Usb cable recommendation I use Wywires Silver. Anyone tried Platinum ? No, they are not exactly entry level cables. I use Supra Ethernet cable, much better than what comes in boxes with equipment. | |
| Killer vintage 70's, 80's reel to reel to add to my setup. No true audiophile system is complete without a good reel to reel deck. Even if only to make recordings off your vinyl for background listening. There is nothing like tape. I would get Studer A807 or 810, find a qualified technician to make it so... | |
| Do you consider cables to be a "component" of your system? Of course, they are components, and very important ones. Speaking of preamp and amp, I would first upgrade power cords and then the interconnects in between them. In other words, first improve power supplies and then do the link. If buying used, ... | |
| What Speakers are you running with your Gryphon Amp? You might consider Gryphon speakers, of course. | |
| cassettes CAN sound better than vinyl. So, I got the Panasonic AG-7350 SVHS VCR and tried to record. To begin with, I decided to use my Nak 682ZX deck as a source not Nottingham turntable. Maxell Vertex cassette in the Nak and TDK XP Super Pro SVHS tape in the Panasonic. Was listening ... | |
| cassettes CAN sound better than vinyl. Tape is still the very best medium but it is not any tape in any cassette deck, it is in higher end RTR decks. That said, and I use customized and aligned Nak 682ZX with Maxell Vertex tapes, it can and does sound real good. Biggest disappointment ... | |
| so, i recorded a type 1, normal bias, on a 70s cassette deck, and it sounds FANTASTIC This is a gross exaggeration. It might sound ok at best. If you want excellent that will be different tape, and if you want fantastic - that will be better reel to reel deck.Pre-recorded tapes sound inadequate but sometimes are listenable. |
