| Joule Electra LA-150 MK3 vs MK2? FYI, I posted my impressions of the Joule Electra Marianne Electra Memorial Edition preamplifier here. Best,iSanchez | |
| Feickert Adjust+ Tool Hello Smoffatt,I purchased the Adjust+ software back in November, 2008, but didn't install it until a few days ago.The software itself is extremely intuitive and easy to use. I think Michael Fremer's review of the software is very successful at de... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Thom's quote is from my post on 11-02-08.Best,iSanchez | |
| Spectron Mk II, is it really that good. I originally purchased a single Musician III SE. I later added a second amp for mono-block operation. As good as a single amp can be, these amps in mono-blocks are in a whole new level. It is often the case that bridging amps does not return doubl... | |
| Spectron III SE vs. Signature III SE MK2 I got delivery of the MK2 with Bybee purifiers upgrades about two months ago. I waited very long to do the upgrade as I just kept thinking that this was minor improvement. WRONG! After listening to all my favorite music with the MK2 + Bybee upgrad... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Dgob,I tend to get a gap sometimes at the edge between the platter and the Mat1. I correct this by applying the appropriate pressure to the Basis clamp so that when it is locked in place it doesn't dish up the record and the Mat1 with it.I've also... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Dgob,Fantastic. The testing of mats is a rewarding pastime when you notice the differences they offer. I remember my time with several of those illustriate mats. I do wonder though (technically naively) if the aluminium stabilizer (as opposed to g... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Dgob,Thanks for sharing your findings with mats, clamps and stabilizers. I also experimented as much as I could for some time. I tried these mats on the Mambo:- Ringmat XLR - Ringmat Anniversary - Funk Firm Achromat Universal Record Mat 3mm & ... | |
| Sibilence in one channel means? With a line contact stylus tip, azimuth and anti-skate are very critical settings.If you have this loupe, or equivalent, you can set it up on a record that has some non-recorded area. Place it on the record and in front of the cartridge. You'll be... | |
| Acoustic Signature Turntables Dgob,Sorry to hear all the hassle you went through. Here in the U.S., Larry Diaz from High-End Palace has been great. I've never had a problem with mine, but he's always very attentive with any issues.I totally agree with you in regards to this ta... | |
| Accuphase A50v and Magneplanar 3.6 Hello Helios1033,Many amps will probably do well with the midrange and tweeter drivers. With amps that don't have much power and current, these speakers will politely ask for a subwoofer. I tried the 3.6r with a Mcintosh amp and a Classe amp. The ... | |
| Tubed Pre match with a Spectron Musician IIISE? Sounds_real_audio, Are you still a dealer? If so, what are you trying to sell? | |
| Speaker cable upgrade I think $8000 for just one cable is pushing it. I'm using Stereovox Reference LSP-600C and I can't conceive that a much more expensive cable can bring more improvement. I think it will sound different, but that doesn't mean that is better in any a... | |
| Spectron MIII MKII after market tweeks ? The Spectron amps also benefit from good vibration/resonace isolation devices. I use Equarack footers under most of my gear. I've written about them here.Other similar options are HRS platforms and SRA platforms.Best,iSanchez | |
| Mint Tractor Markus1299, The Mint Tractor is the most cost-effective upgrade for any analogue set up. After the set up is complete, it all sounds as if there was a major turntable, arm or cartridge upgrade, without the major monetary expense of course.Best,iSa... |
