| A low cost way to try phono once again? I think to try a turntable your budget should under $500 and all equipment should be used. It is a bit of a trick question depending on what vinyl you own. I would probably double the budget if I had a collection. I would still stay used.You can g... | |
| My Turntable Collection..... Ahh talk about vintage. You and your future wife lived in separate apartments. Now that is a refreshing idea.Fun reading about the retro stuff... thank you. Back in the day I had a Denon DP-45. To this day I am partial to those old denon's.It is a... | |
| What to use to clean vpi classic platter? I am not exactly familiar with your model. I had a Denon back in the day. Car wax worked great. The wax helped make it easier to clean later in my case.It is probably a good idea to check with VPI. I would stay away from my idead if there are grov... | |
| VPI Classic and ZYX Airy 3 X SB...good match? I had an Airy 3 on my scout. It was a great cartridge for sure. I also ran it for a short time on my HRX. It has been a while since I listened, but as I recall the HRX combo is what made me get rid of my digital all together. It is a sweet cartrid... | |
| Gallo Reference series question You heard the 3.1's and liked them. The 3.1's are great speakers. They are one of my favorite speakers. I will be honest, I've never heard the 3's. People I know that heard both said the 3.1's were much better.When I built a system the speakers wh... | |
| SET amp for Gallo ref 3.1 I have the 3.1's hooked up to my Canary CA-339's. The sound is pure bliss. The 339 is a 50 watt 300B amp. It is a great match. My brother has the 25 watt version of the amps and they do a pretty good job as well. As somebody pointed out, we all he... | |
| Krell primer? You are better off with old Krell amplifiers than preamps. Generally speaking they are much cheaper to fix. If you purchase any Krell product older than 10 years old you should plan on having it serviced. The old preamps can represent well over a ... | |
| how much to offer friend for records A question that can't be answered. What specifically are you buying? I disagree with you about ebay prices. This is a different type of sale though. I would expect a bargain. There is no work in it for your friend to sell these. You are also talki... | |
| Zeppelin on vinyl Nrostov, I can't comment on that level. Notice I made no comparison to any other Zeppelin material. I do know that I like them. Sorry. | |
| Are there digital front ends with the body... They sound different. I've heard many expensive digital setups as well as owning a few of my own. Interesting to me how the digital fans knock the media side of vinyl. The media side of digital is what drove me back to vinyl. Thought for the day: ... | |
| Food for thought for all us audiophiles I agree with much of what is said. I believe if company truly believes in their product, double blind tests should be a welcome test. They are not welcomed. I would like to point out that for me aesthetics, joy of touching/operating are important.... | |
| Zeppelin on vinyl Nrostov, you are 100% correct to my ears. The first three albums are excellent. They have a very live feel to them. They have a raw sound that I find extremely enjoyable. The classic versions of those are some of my favorite vinyl. | |
| What do you think about this statement I try and word my statements carefully. I generally include something like: "to my ears" in statements I make when comparing. I have heard gear by many high end manufacturers that is not the sound I am looking for. Heck, I have even owned gear in ... | |
| Amp for some new Gallos I would like to point out that according to the manual; these speakers need to be broken in with some power. While they will work with low powered tube equipment, they need to be broken in with power. I am using 50 watt canary 339s on mine. They a... | |
