| Connect 78 rpm turntable to Vinnie Rossi L2i SE amp? Get an old Dual TT with the 78 speed. I remember reading in Stereophile years ago about a phono stage/equalizer dedicated to optimize 78 playback. Might have been written by the late Art Dudley. Check the Stereophile archives. Grado makes stylii f... | |
| Benchmark AHB2 or Class D (GaN FET) Nothing new here. THX AAA is just a variation of feed-forward error correction. Peter Walker (Quad) used this method in 1976 with the 405 amp. Later the 306/606 and other Quad amps used feed-forward successfully. | |
| user poll on seperates vs integrated Separates! Variety is the spice of Life! Darwin had something to say about this if I recall? | |
| RCA Y- cable or is an A/B switch required? @fuzztone : when I wanted to add some brand-new ICs I bought 5 pairs of the AQ Silver Extremes - a $400 IC! Got them for $90 each from HCM as close-outs from AQ. | |
| RCA Y- cable or is an A/B switch required? I recommend using the all-metal y-connectors. No short cable attached to it. Eliminates potential wire coloration! | |
| USD vs Yen who is cashing in! TechDAS Go to Germany and buy yourself a new Porsche for the cost of the TechDas! That's how crazy the pricing of the ultra-high end turntables has become! | |
| RCA Y- cable or is an A/B switch required? Just use the Y - connector for each channel on the CD player. No harm will come to it! | |
| Increasing a Low output MM You need a linear amp with added gain - a head amp. The Marcof PPA-1 will work! Battery-powered! I have one for use with low-output mc cartridges. Some Grado cartridges have 1 millivolt or less output. | |
| Taylor Swift Concert Prices Maybe I am out of the loop because I have never listened to any Taylor Swift songs! Why does she have such fan appeal? | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Right now in the JVC DVD player/Khadas KTB DAC is CD #2 of Zeppelin's How the West Was Won live recording from '72! Outstanding! | |
| Original Quads (57) - the perfect amp I'd take the 57's and 25/25 combo over any tube amps - except the Futterman OTL's - any day - speaking from years of listening! | |
| Original Quads (57) - the perfect amp EBay seller otsonline has the Bedini 25/25 listed at $1599 + $50 shipping. Maybe he would take a bit less? That's the first one I've seen with the 19" rack panel. Plus it has new filter caps. Certainly a rare amp! I still have mine which I bought ... | |
| How rare is an audiophile A good sign for the continuing viability of the audiophile hobby is the upward trend of LP sales! Plus the stability of the print subscriber base for Stereophile and TAS. | |
| Original Quads (57) - the perfect amp +1 jperry! I used a Bedini 25/25 for nine years with my Quad 57's. Try to find one now! This was the recommendation of The Audio Critic way back when! | |
| Dynavector XV-1S +1 dover! Maybe Dynavector also has a trade-in policy for older cartridges? |
