If you had 10k for pre and power amp but you had I have a very similar experience with Darylhifi. I have tried so very many preamps and amps and over and over, I find so few preamps really bring on the musicality and involvement. And yet so many amps, even with their differences from model to mo... | |
Turntable upgrade: What to do? The Linn and Naim products for that matter always seem to have a cult following. It's hard to ever hear of rhythm and pace without hearing these product lines mentioned in the same sentence. With that said, I too think the Linn LP12 is a fine prod... | |
What happened to list prices? I do not fully understand this thread as I see many of the ads do indeed have list prices. I just listed my ARC PH2 here with orig list price and it is shown. One thing I have noticed on this site and others is how inaccurate many posted list pric... | |
ARC SP-11 MkII vs. ARC Ref. 1 & the winner is..... It's not easy to take such a review of the SP11 vs Ref1 very serious based on my ownership of some ARC preamps over the last 15 years. I owned an SP10 Mk II for 8 years and just loved it. It had poor frequency extreme extension on both ends, it ha... | |
Record clamps on LP12 This killed the rhythm and pace? Nothing else was affected? | |
Clearaudio Master Reference vs. Basis Debut V ?? A few people have emailed me on my previous Clearaudio forum comments, so I will share further experiences here.I have the same gut feeling as Albert on the linear tracking concept. I use the Clearaudio Reference with TQ1 rather than the Master ta... | |
Benz ACE, Grado Sonata or Clearaudio Aurum Beta S? Hello,I used a Sonata for a few months. It was a phenomenol tracker with great bass extension and good weight in the mids. However, the extended trebles that I have become so used to with MC cartridges was reduced. I then tried a Benz Glider which... | |
Magnepan MGCC1 & shysters I submitted a response here but it was rejected by Audiogon as I had mentioned the man's name and his address. Here is that message again with that info left off. For anyone interested in that information, please contact me.------------------Oh oh... | |
Comparison ARC Classic 30 and VT-50 For about a year I owned (given to me) a Classic60. I then had to return it a year later (complicated story) and then went with a VT130. Since the CL60 is the bigger brother to the CL30 and the VT130 along the same time as the VT50, I feel my expe... | |
What IS that tune?????? Your sperm's in the gutter, your love's in the sink"Sure glad I got this line, Thanks guys!" | |
SME V tonearm versus Rega tonearms on Michell Orbe Hmmm, you are contemplating putting a multi-thousand $ cartridge on an arm that costs a few hundred $? Doing just the opposite makes far more sense. If you are looking to stay with UK arms, the Naim ARO may very well be your best choice....otherwi... | |
NBS Audio Cables I too have had good response from NBS. A couple of times I needed information and I too was told Walter was out of the office, but I put my questions to an email and within the day I had gotten my questions answered.I use Statement between preamp ... | |
Is Audio Research Corp alive and well? I live only 5 minutes from ARC and have repeatedly gotten excellent service just as a walk-in customer. Each time I have needed a manual or parts kit, they are always right there to help me. When I took my VT130 in for service they had put it in a... | |
Audio Research PH-2 Phono Stage I have to say I have an entirely different experiencewith the PH2 than Rdr4b. I have had the PH2 since early1995 and would consider it perhaps the most neutral productin my system (ARC LS5II, DAC3II, VT130, driving Maggie3.3).My phono is Clearaudi... | |
Clearaudio Reference Mistracking I'd thank to thank everyone here for their experiences and comments. I will try to address each of these now.Concerning the MusicalSurroundings website, yes, I checked it out. And I will send a copy of my posting to them this weekend. I will share... |
