| Opinions on Brinkmann Avance tt the dais was much more dynamic, and quiet between cuts. heard both with comparible big brit boxes (harbeth 5/ spendor 100) | |
| Should I sell my Thorens? a new thorens(td350) or a comparable new table is going to take you well over 3k....a vpi boyscout is pretty good for 2k, but a good cartridge on a td160 is still comparable. | |
| Personal turntable/cartridge evolution g.e.wildcat, panasonic,sony,kenwood,phillips,dual,thorens,denon,revolver,dual again,rega,maplenoll,vpi(three models in sequence)),goldmund,sota,well tempered,linn,wilson benesch....in that order....today all at once oracle paris, goldmund studio, ... | |
| Stupid question on Power Cords? unless you are unhappy with the sound, don't change a thing. | |
| Should I sell my Thorens? ditch the old grado blue....a weak link, and it may be defective. | |
| How can I identify reissues?? the 'under license' language is on all of them. genrally on the back/bottom. etailers generally always list label names. | |
| Problem with Arcam or JM LABS sometimes its the discs themselves....there are no standards for ther multi channel mixes.....try the other audio options...mono, 2.0 etc | |
| Best power cord for McIntosh MC 501 monoblocks mac amps generally disappear in the chain. sounds more like a room/speaker adjustment | |
| Is it to much power? you're fine | |
| The Musicians Behind The Motown Sound anyone going to detroit should visit the motown museum. the songwriting team of holland/dozier/holland get overlooked as well...talk about prolific. | |
| Thorens 124/125/126 vs Rega P3/MMF-5 you would have to spend several thousand dollars to come close to the vintage thorens, or get a new comparable thorens 35o which sells for 3.5k with an entry arm just for starters | |
| Revel GEM or Wilson Cub 2 ? sounds like change for the sake of change. revel and wilson are awfully similar. | |
| 6550s vs kt88s for a mac 275 amp i have an mc 275 commemorative and still have the tubes it came with. its incredibly musical even at the bottom. a second set also came with it, but i've never rolled them. | |
| Opinions on Brinkmann Avance tt having not heard the advance, i couldn't tell you if its worth the switch...i have heard (at length), the la grange, and didn't find it the equal of the dais. | |
| Opinions on Brinkmann Avance tt unless you are unhappy, keep the nottingham. it pretty much competes with anything, and spend your money on vinyl. the audiofile itch rarely lasts when you survey what you've got , and just relax and listen. |
