Best way to sell a record collection Thanks for all of the info and advice. Sounds like I need to get some cardboard media sleeves and get to work. Maybe it’ll be an evening with a stack of cd’s, a bottle of Orin Swift, and a tape gun… | |
Best way to sell a record collection So selling one at a time and dealing with shipping is hassle free and worth it? What do you guys find the best method for handling the shipping cost and packing material costs? Is it to include it in the price of the record or as a separate charge? | |
Selling gear made to be a set Thanks for all the responses and advice. I’m not planning on streaming only, I have a second CD player. I have an Arcom CDS27 and I was thinking of buying the SA30, that way I could stream and have a surplus of digital options, as well as bust out... | |
Marantz PM Ki Ruby vs Musical Fidelity M6si Not sure if anyone is still out there on this thread, but I wanted to post some thoughts. I’m actually the guy that verdant audio mentions going from a Marantz amplifier to an M5SI at the beginning of this thread. The Marantz I had was the PM 14-S... | |
Marantz vs Musical Fidelity As far as 5005 vs 8006. No question. 8006 is a completely different ball game. Plus all of the warm fuzzy made in Japan at the reference factory, copper screws, 30 something lbs, etc. It does sound good and is not a disappointment especially if yo... | |
Marantz vs Musical Fidelity I’d say if you don’t listen to vinyl then without a doubt go with the MF. Unless you have bright speakers. I don’t really have much to go on to speak of for the phono stage of my M5si because I never have my record player hooked up. Long story, bu... | |
USB B to anything else What about USB B to coaxial? It does seem then that USB B is fairly pointless without a computer. Strange to me why musical fidelity would put that on their integrated amplifiers instead of coaxial or something. | |
USB B to anything else Thanks, I must have overlooked that when I've Googled that before. I wasn't having any luck but obviously I was worried for nothing. Yeah, that cable definitely doesn't look like anything special haha! | |
Marantz vs Musical Fidelity I looked up the Halo, that thing is pretty impressive and it's actually 20 watts more in 4 ohm then the MF. For my taste it's super ugly, but definitely impressive. I'd actually be worried that all of its features would go to waste on me. Lots of ... | |
Marantz vs Musical Fidelity Thanks very much for the responses, I appreciate and enjoy the conversation. The "attack" and "authority" and "snapping to attention" is exactly what I'm talking about. 8005 has it, 14s1 does not. I am very impressed with the speakers to say the l... | |
Marantz vs Musical Fidelity Thanks for the replays. All of the speakers I've had have had a similar sound of being held back by the PM14-S1. I also have a pair of Bowers & Wilkins CM6 S2 with matching stands and I felt it was the same case with those. As far as the turnt... |
