| Have you heard the Goldring Ethos Cartridge? I love the Ethos. It's a very balanced cartridge and that's a really good thing. The sound never gets old. I also find I just like listening to it. It's bigger and bolder sounding than my ART9 and Kiseki Purpleheart. The ART9 is a bit more po... | |
| Experience with Modwright products? Can you make it to AXPONA? An Illinois-based dealer I love will be there and will have it on display for use. | |
| Experience with Modwright products? @bunkertoy , Yes. Ok. The preamp is very, very good. Pros - Holographic sound. DEAD silent. Nice volume attenuator. Lots of XLR/blanced inputs and I believe there are Lundhaul transformers in there. I love the unit in so many ways. Cons -... | |
| Experience with Modwright products? @bunkertoy , Yes, see the my OP above. I have had the LS99 and its matching KWA99 mono blocks. Highly recommended, UNLESS you have insensitive speakers or a big room. These lit up my Cornwall IVs, but ran out of gas on an 87dB 4 ohm speaker... | |
| Outstanding Reel to Reel Vendor +1 on Curt. I bought a deck from him. He was fabulous. Highly recommend him. I have a couple of Revox B77s that I'm going to be selling. One of which was refurbished by Curt. | |
| Vinyl is back for good and that’s exciting $30 in 2023 is about $11.00 in 1990 per https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ I'm not sure vinyl is too expensive. | |
| Just heard White Stripes Elephant on Reel to Reel! @ddzstereo You make good points. It does make you think about what type of treatment and processing the masters have gone through. I don't golf and my other hobby (playing music) costs nothing. So, I'm not opposed to developing a collection of... | |
| The dangerous world of Reel-to-Reel Tape Dare I try to offer an explanation of why some perceive R2R to sound better than the source when a vinyl or CD is put to tape. I think it's about the lens at which we listen to music. R2R, like vinyl, takes a tiny signal and blows it up onto a b... | |
| Found Great Seller - Plinth for Technics 1200 GAE Wow! The takeaway wasn't supposed to be a linguistic exercise. Jose in Madrid just makes good wood boxy things that ensconce the 1200 G and GAE series. | |

| Found Great Seller - Plinth for Technics 1200 GAE Jose, Thank you again! I'll get pictures posted asap. It's been insanely busy here with the holidays. Lovely base! It fits like a glove. | |
| What's on your tape machine tonight? Not tonight but very soon I will be done with my Revox PR99 MKIII and will begin with Waltz for Debby (Bill Evans Trio) Folk Singer (Muddy Waters) When I get both decks running I can make some copies of music too. If anyone's interested in tr... |
