| 2 Subwoofers or 1? Three are better. Regards, Dan | |
| Who Is An Expert On Acutex Cartridges? Lewm, I see you also use a Dynavector arm, in my case a 501 that I've had to rebuild the arm lift assembly on, and rewire. I love this tonearm, though I wonder how much difference there is from the newer models. Any comment? Very curious regardi... | |
| Who Is An Expert On Acutex Cartridges? Last night, I listened first to my AT ART-9, and then I installed my Acutex M 320 LPM cartridge. I was astonished how good the Acutex sounded. It makes me realize I need to fine tune the setup on the ART 9. The Acutex made the best sounding music... | |
| Adding a Herron VTSP 3A/360 Preamplifier to the system. Brian, thank you! Same to you. Dan | |
| Who Is An Expert On Acutex Cartridges? Timeltel, the 415 is very good cartridge, especially considering its price. I don't remember how much I paid for it, but it wasn't much. I've got to stop being lazy and listen to more vinyl! Regards, Dan | |
| Concentric drivers I agree with Mulveling, (whose system I would love to hear), Tannoys have been recognized as one of the best-sounding speaker systems on the planet for almost all the years I've been alive. I don't care if there is some Doppler effect happening, ... | |
| Adding a Herron VTSP 3A/360 Preamplifier to the system. I think part of my problem is I had my head where the sun doesn't shine (at least not much anymore). It turns out the issue was a 3C24 tube in my amplifier. I have no idea why I was so convinced I thought it was the preamplifier, but that's what i... | |
| Who Is An Expert On Acutex Cartridges? I'm happy to have encountered this thread, it serves as a reminder to try my Acutex cartridges again (MCR 320 STR III, and 415 STR) again. Other aspects in the audio chain has taken precedence over the Acutex issue, but recent improvements in the... | |
| Concentric drivers In all my 50 years of involvement with audio, I've never heard anyone mention Doppler shift before. I've been using Tannoys for most of those years, I've yet to notice any Doppler shift. I suggest you may be looking for a problem that doesn't exi... | |
| Has your system evolved in the past 10 years? Now that I think about it, my whole system has changed to a much better one in the last ten-twelve years. Got rid of Dynavector Contour 5.4's, and custom built Tannoy HPD 315's, have fairly recently bought the last, and best tube amp I will have (... | |
| Power Amp Question I would agree on the Class D Audio GaN amp. I bought one, and it continues to amaze me. I use it just to give my 3C24 tube amp a break. Another thing I agree on is how important a great preamp is. I never realized how much difference one could ma... | |
| What do modern, current day CD Transports do that older CDP's with RCA digital out don't? I was listening to my system last night, using the Oppo UDP 203 with a new Linear Power Supply, and I came to realize my system sounds about as good as any I've heard anywhere, even with my 75 year old ears. I am now very pleased with the Oppo 20... | |
| Adding a Herron VTSP 3A/360 Preamplifier to the system. Gentlemen, suddenly both channels have become noisy on the Herron Line Stage. I I had one tube that became noisy, so I bought a new set, and it sounded just great for a few days. Now, both channels are making a kind of scratchy sound (it can be ... | |
| Oppo UDP-203 I bought my power supply from Oppomod in Korea, Jae Hong designed and built. It came very quickly and is beautifully built. Works great. Dan | |
| Oppo UDP-203 I just recently bought a UDP 203, and then ordered a linear power supply and put it in. I believe it is now the best sounding universal player I've owned, and I've had several different brands. This being the first Oppo I've had. I'm enjoying it.... |
