| VPI TT Belts Yes indeed, I replaced the rubber belt with the nylon thread of the Loricraft RCM (any nylon thread will do it ) and I will never go back. Speed stability has increased and soundstage imaging is more precise. I don't understand why many manufactur... | |
| MC phono stage without transformer? very well put Ron ! | |
| B&W 800d's or MAGICO V3's? Dear Koegz, I don't know how you can make an opinion on the V3 with the advice of A'goners that haven't even heard them in a similar setup as yours. I would be lost. | |
| B&W 800d's or MAGICO V3's? Magico speakers are really something special. They don't sound like conventional box speakers, more like dipole ESL or planars, with the dynamics of a good box speaker. They take advantge of both worlds. Very good design.I wish I could afford one ... | |
| Avalon Indra vs. Magico V3 with Mc 275 ? Tube rolling is revealing the real capabilities of this amp. I have NOS Telefunken 12 AT7, NOS Mullard Military 12AX7 and NOS Philips ECG 6550 in place of KT 88. With those tubes the Mc 275 is really singing. Much better than my ARC VT 100. | |
| LP for fathers day ideas please............ No globalisation with father's day ! It is today here in Belgium and my new album is wonderful. I have a very cool family, living with tons of LP's all over the place and postman ringing for e-Bay delivery all day long must be difficult sometimes! | |
| Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. Thank you everyone for your answers. I will stay with my Venustas for the moment. You are right, this is a very expensive upgrade. | |
| LP for fathers day ideas please............ Quizzz: how many fathers receive an audiophile LP for father's day in the world? | |
| LP for fathers day ideas please............ Today is father's day ! So what did you offer to your daddy ?My daughter offered me " l'histoire de Melody Nelson" from Serge Gainsbourg.I am a very happy father!It was a very nice thread. | |
| Scout Owners: How Much Cartridge? Total gain with ARC SP 16 is 54 dB, should be OK with MM or High output cartridge, I suggest Sumiko Blackbird with that amp. If you are ready to ad an additional phonopreamp, the choice is much wider. I suggest the Graham Slee Revelation+ Elevator... | |
| Scout Owners: How Much Cartridge? Scout is a very good turntable, specialy on a symposium platform. Upgrading to the Ultra is even better. What is the tonearm you use ? And the phonopreamp ? | |
| Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. Does Purist have an upgrade marketing policy, swapping for example Venustas for Provectus, having to pay just the price difference between them, or if I make the upgrade I have to sell my Venustas myself ? My dealer does not do it, because it has ... | |
| What do defective phono tubes sound like? Bad news, "pops" came back... I am also leaning towards tonearm connection failure, when i move the pivoting bottom of the Phantom awful pops appear.I thought problem was resolved, but it was a short relief, maybe because I unplugged everything. M... | |
| Purist Audio "Purist 20th Anniversary" I/C I started a new thread on the analog forum about the new Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. | |
| Avalon Indra vs. Magico V3 with Mc 275 ? In fact my question should be : are the Magico V3 and Avalon Indra a good match with the McIntosh MC 275 amp? |
