| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? I have googled and found some conversion boxes that do what you suggest. With one of these boxes I could put turntable and phono pre close to each other, run a long balanced cable to the conversion box and a short RCA cable from the box to the int... | |
| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? Jimmytrk, Your post is fully within the topic. I believe that if one end of a XLR wire is converted to RCA, it behaves as an unbalanced connection. To get the benefits of a balanced connection all components in the chain must be balanced. | |
| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? Atmasphere, the Allnic has balanced outputs, but my integrated amp does not have balanced inputs. It only handles Unbalanced. | |
| DAC options Juanin, I guess what you are looking for is a Music Streamer, with an integrated DAC on it. Google under Logitech Touch as an example. | |
| How do you send an internet stream into a hi fi? There are a number of music streamers now on the market, in different price ranges. Try to Google a little bit and you will probably get better advice from the forum if you close your question a litlle bit. | |
| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? Dear Lewm, I have tried your suggestion and it has brought a big improvement to the sound image and, surprisingly, to the tonal balance, now with less enphasis on the higher frequencies. I guess the turntable huge acrilic case was acting as a reso... | |
| Tonearm Cable advice needed I have heard that purple cable sounds better, but unfortunately Jelco uses the red one... | |
| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? Sarcher30, you are right. When I tried with a shorter cable I found out that XLR was the phono pre output, not the input. As my integrated amp does not have Balanced inputs, my only option is to put the turntable between the plane of the speakers,... | |
| Record Cleaning Machine - Loricraft PRC-3 vs. 4? I've got the PRC-4. Never compared it to the 3, but I'm delighted with it. Silent enough and does remove all fluid on the disk. Maybe someone who owns the 3 can comment on it. Feel free to ask any question. | |
| 24 feet DIN to XLR phono cable for Graham Phantom? Atmasphere, you got it right. Main reason for this is to move the turntable away from my electrostatic speakers. I guess I will minimize vibration and also will remove the bulk of a very big turntable, acrilic case included, from between the speak... | |
| Tonearm Cable advice needed Jelco cable sounds great and it's within your budget | |
| Vincent audio hybrid amps I've got one, with a Promitheus passive preamp and Martin Logan SL3 speakers. Great for the money, very transparent in the mids and a little bit on the forgiving side of neutral. Let me know if you would like me to answer any specific question. | |
| Kimber, Audioquest, Wireworld I have 2 pairs of Kimber 1036 in my system. They sound great, but tend to smooth the sound a little bit. If this is what you want, you can go with them happily. If your system is already over smooth, they might be just too much of a good thing. | |
| taller than average ceilings I have had the opportunity (and luck) to listen to three different gears in different houses, comparing normal heigth ceilings with high ones, and I always liked them much more in the high ceiling houses. Treble and medium frequencies sound more n... | |
| Do You Love Music or Do You Love Hi-Fi? I love music despite all efforts most hifi gear does to avoid it. Within my budget limits, when I have to choose, I always prioritize musicality over audiophile parameters (detail, speed, soundstage,...). I'd obviously like to have the perfect sou... |
