| Preamp for Herron VTPH-2A There's a used Emotive Audio Sira preamp for sale. I had one for a short time before moving up to the Epifania, which is a terrific match with my VTPH-2A. There is no balanced or remote. Fred had added the remote volume on my Epifania, which also ... | |
| My new to me Herron VTPH-2A - First impressions I received my VTPH-2A from Keith Herron about a month ago. I also have a JC3+. Both are nice sounding phono stages, but the Herron, IMO, requires a preamp that can pass the signal to the amp without doing any harm. The VTPH-2A is more transparent,... | |
| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? I fell asleep at a Jethro Tull concert but the only concert I walked out on was Santana. This was right after Jerry Garcia passed away and it turned into a requiem. | |
| Technics SL1210GAE + Accuphase E-480 (AD-50) + ??? (cartridge) I’m using the stock headshell. Setting up the cartridge wasn’t too bad using the supplied tool. I’m still playing around with the arm height which is easy to do with the 1210. | |
| Technics SL1210GAE + Accuphase E-480 (AD-50) + ??? (cartridge) I have an Ortofon Cadenza bronze on my SL-1210GAE and it sounds great. | |
| Driver breakin period, what’s the science? Years ago when I received my Shahinian Diapasons I remember them taking a long time for the sound to settle in. For the past year I have a pair of Bache Audio Tribeca speakers and they sounded great right from the start. If there was any change wi... | |
| About to invest in room treatments; GIK, RealTraps, DIY -- what is your experience? bernardo, I have 3 Mondo Traps along the wall behind the speakers, an RFZ panel on each side wall which I put on stands so I can experiment with placement. Behind my chair I have a diffuser on top of a mini 2’x 2’ Mondo Trap. | |
| A question of loading... I have a Lyra kleos and an Ortofon Cadenza bronze and run those with no loading into a Herron VTPH-2A. Soon I’m going to try a Kiseki purple heart and the recommended loading is 400 ohms but I will try it without loading plugs.As I understand, loa... | |

| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? I once owned a pair of Rethm speakers with Lowther drivers. The problem was a thin sound with no bass. Adding a Rel subwoofer didn't help much. There was always a dip between where the driver left off and where the subwoofer picked up. Check out B... | |
| About to invest in room treatments; GIK, RealTraps, DIY -- what is your experience? I have used ASC products in my last room. In my current room I went with Real Traps. I get much better results with the Real Traps. The soundstage is enormous and the depth is just better. Both rooms are similar in shape and size. The Real Traps w... | |
