Review: Manley Laboratories Neo-Classic 300B preamp Tube preamp
HI..sorry I sold it a while ago. it was manual volume pot 
Anyone own the Yamaha A-S2000 - noob questions
1. Your speakers' cones flex in and out because the A-S2000 does not have a subsonic filter for the Phono input (which is usually omitted in current integrated amps nowadays :( ) This is also the case with all hi-end record players, phono preamps.... 
Clearaudio Maestro Wood or AT33PTG/II For Rega P5
Hi Ryder,In my previous post, I stated that "while the AT33PTG is a tad more refine/smoother on high frequencies", and I meant "on high frequencies" only. To my ears, the Clearaudio Maestro is THE best sounding MM cartridge and it's on par with ma... 
Clearaudio Maestro Wood or AT33PTG/II For Rega P5
I have both cartridges: Audio Technica AT33PTG (mounted on a SME 3009, Garrard 301) and Clearaudio Maestro (mounted on a Morch DP-6, Thorens TD-124). Before letting them staying permanently with their matches, I have switched them around a bit, an...

Wadia 171i iPod Dock having too much Base?
I called and asked Wadia the same question about a year ago (i have the 170i), they told me that the iPod does all the processes (EQ, volume etc) in its digital domain before the digital signal goes through its internal DAC. The Wadia takes the iP...

Cambridge 640P Power Supply Upgrade
In the interview with the Pangea P100's designer, he said the P100 was first designed for use with the Cambridge Audio DacMagic, and Musical Fidelity was an addition after he saw how the P100 improved the DacMagic's performance. So I'd guess both ... 
ZYX R-100 Yatra & SME 3009 MKII Non-Improved
Thanks guys! I decided to go with the Ortofon Rondo Bronze since the specs are more compatible with the SME 3009 II non improved. 
Is Ortofon Rondo Bronze MC really low rider??
I spent a few hours setting up that cartridge and noticed that it rode extremely low. It was too early to call Ortofon so i thought someone on here might give me a helpful advice. Anyway, I contacted the dealer - Mehran from SORAsound, sent him an... 
ZYX R-100 Yatra & SME 3009 MKII Non-Improved
I have some confusions with SME 3009 MKII Non-Improved and Improved versions' effective mass before. Some listed it 12.9g and some listed 9.5g for the Non-improved version and 6.5g for the 3009 MKII Improved.Let's just, for experiment, say that 9....

Bryston BDP1- loading problem
Nglazer: I totally agree with you. Al: Yes, They did test it with 120GB of AIFF and that took about 4 hours or so!Manufacturers should always test their products in every possible way before release it to the market. But no product is perfect, inc... 
Bryston BDP1- loading problem
For those who are interested in this, a little update for you:I have converted all of the 150G of AIFFs i had to FLAC (became about 60-70GB of them) and I have added another 30-40 GB of FLAC files (ripped from CD to AIFF with all the album artwork... 
Bryston BDP1- loading problem
Al: Yes, I connected it to the bottom rear USB port.I posted on that forum, no response yet. James did email me back, saying it might be the choice of file (AIFF vs FLAC). I might take a shot to convert those 150GB from AIFF to FLAC just to see ho...
