| Which amp is better suited for LP playback? Are you using a record cleaning machine? And something like Disc Dr or Record Research cleaners? You shouldn't have very many pops and clicks unless your records are worn or in bad shape. Static maybe? Then a Zerostat gun.Proper cartridge setup? M... | |
| Graham 2.2 damping fluid amount? Sorry to go off-topic on you. But my SME IV.Vi manual states that I should change the damping fluid yearly. Why? Does Graham say that as well? Does it evaporate? Get dirty? Loose it's magic? I've had my arm for 2-3 years and never tried this. Than... | |
| Possible Speaker Damage cause by Vinyl? I'd agree with Marakenetz. I'll add, if they sound fine, then they are fine. I just wouldn't make a habit of it... | |
| Recommend CD player Another choice is the Esoteric DV 50. Gives you SACD, DVD-A and DVD as well. Might not be quite up to the Audio Aero on Redbook, but not that far behind. Little higher than your 3k...seen them used for $3600-$4000. | |
| Ray Charles--Genius Loves Company I heard Ray's Genius loves Company a few weeks ago on American Airlines. They had it as a feature in business class on the in plane music system. I bought the SACD.I'll offer one SACD that I love. Film and the BB's, Tricycle on the DMP label. Upte... | |
| Linn Ikemi still viable at 4k Well, if Theo has compared the Esoteric and liked it better at "upsampling", then the Esoteric should get the nod. One, the upsampling can go higher, 2)it's a top notch DVD player 3)it's a first class DVD-Audio player, and 4) it's a killer SACD pl... | |
| Digital or Power Side of 2 dediciated lines ? Digital. Chances are even though the power supply is separated from the CD player portion, you are still going to get some digital noise in the system. Best way, is just to try it. If you can hear a little more detail, little quiter background...t... | |
| McIntosh or BAT amps what is your preference I've had BAT stuff for years now. Several Amps...VK200, vk 60, now a VK75SE. One preamp, VK50SE that's now a 51se, and 2 phono stages...now a P10SE. No problems, great service. Very highly recommended.Sounds like you want a good 5 channel amp? The... | |
| McIntosh or BAT amps what is your preference This is a hard question to answer. I have a all BAT system, but some of the McIntosh gear is pretty darn good to. What's the rest of your system? What model Mac vs BAT... | |
| Any B.A.T. amp owners-love or not Reliability? I don't believe you! At least from my experience...I've owned a VK200, VK 60, VK75SE, and VK50SE updated now to a VK51SE and a VKp5, then a VKP10 which I updated to a P10SE (still have). Never had a issue other than a tube and that wa... | |
| Curious. Kimber Palladian Power Cord. I have tried it on my amp and source (phono pre and digital). I like it everywhere. As far as saturation...I don't know. Maybe email Kimber?Expensive? They claim the R&D costs on this "thing". Anyway. for about $1k list price, it's one of the ... | |
| Has anybody tried a Shelter 501/Linn Ekos comb. I think I may know the answer. I had a lp12 and tried a 103d years ago. Like 15-20 years ago. The Denon cartridge does have a large body, it's not the mounting into the screw holes, it's that the cartrige hook up pins extend back into the tonearm ... | |
| cartridge leads I agree with your thougts. I'd like to try better phono leads than what was stock on my SME IV.Vi arm. Just I really don't know what I have and what's better... | |
| Audio out of sync with video DVD mj662, I'm using a Esoteric DV 50. The video is based on a Pioneer DVD player. It has a feature called Prog Motion and can adjust in 8-10 increments of fast vs slow. I assume this will help with this issue. Although I've never had a reason to try ... |
