| Share thoughts on Keith Jarrett I'm spining his new LP "Yesterdays" on ECM. This is a incredible recording and music. While not solo piano, It's up there Koln Concert | |
| Balanced tube preamp as good as BAT VK at lower? Bat pre amps with bat amps are really something special. Great synergy. I've owned a 50se/51se and vk200/60/150se's. You can get better (or different), but it costs more money and you really can never get that bat midrange glory anywhere else.I'd ... | |
| Share thoughts on Keith Jarrett I personally love his music. And yes some of his ECM recordings are stellar on LP and CD...Up there with Miles etc? I don't know...but who cares...just listen some more :) | |
| Stockfish LPs ?? I have Bassface Swing Trio plays Gershwin. Great Jazz, the vinyl was a little noisey for $100. Great recording. No vocals if I remember right...The Sara K on Stockfish is killer good. | |

| Candidates for tonearm cable for phantom arm Hi, I'd seriously suggest the Purist Venastas (used). It's a killer cable and been discussed on several other threads.Given it's flexible lead, stright or right angle din will work well for your arm...Good luck | |
| Candidates for tonearm cable for phantom arm I've used both (on my former SME arm with similar style connector as your Graham).

| Direct Drive turntables Hi Raul,So I have heard Albert's journey to DD extensively as well as my own (post above). And while I do agree with you the only 100% proof on DD vs belt is only to change one varible. However, many of us have heard so many arm, cartridge, table ... | |
| Hi Fi Tuning Fuses & Ayre Hi I put the HiFi tuning gold cap fuses in my MXRs. Things were more quiet, allowing better detail, extension, and more resolution but with warmth. Wasn't like a new amp, but was a improve that far outweighs the cost.All plusses no negatives. | |
| Direct Drive turntables Alectiong:"Hi, has DD a "theoretical" advantage over belt drive that will translate into better sounds? I am confused by opinions out there. Some say DD has a characteristic livelier/dynamic sound. Some say the type of drive mechanism really doesn... | |
| Anyone auditioned the Cardas Clear? I have.... Hi, So what are your impressions? | |
| Ayre KX-R cmalak and bar81 has some good advice. they are coming from differing perspecives. I've heard this preamp in my system (with Ayre MXR amps). It is VERY VERY good, I ended up however matching my Ayre amps with a Nagra PLL pre vs the Ayre Pre. Saved... | |
