| Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. Audiofeil, I just realised that you are selling these cables and give rave review of them on your ad here in Audiogon ??? Do you sell also HD TV's ? :-) | |
| Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. Please compare apples with apples. We are comparing different products of the same brand. I am not willing to compare a Ferrari with a Honda Civic, both great cars but for different situations! | |
| Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. With great products it is often a love or hate story. I love Purist, the sound they make puts a smile on my face and toe tapping. I enjoy more the music and that's what this whole passion is about. And I feel it is closer to real performance than ... | |
| Purist Proteus Provectus tonearm cable. Hit the painful point, Sirspeedy ! I knew that my speakers where rolled off in high frequencies and that Magico Mini are a solution to this, so if Venustas are awesome on your friend system, I just have to sell my car to buy them !!! | |
| Mono Cartridge, is it worth the investment? Another thing, playng a true mono record with a stereo cartridge with phonopreamp and amp switches on mono is a little better than stereo switch but NOTHING to compare with true mono cartridge. | |
| Mono Cartridge, is it worth the investment? I give an example: Miles Davis "Round About Midnight", Mono 1957 pressing "six eye" deep groove CL 949 . Record in VG condition, in not so good state.Played with a top stereo cartridge you have a constricted dynamic range, a high background noise,... | |
| Purist Audio "Purist 20th Anniversary" I/C Jfrech, congratulations for your system, TOP ! Apparently you are also a big Purist Audio enthousiast. Those cables do transport music like no other. I was very sceptical , and when I tryed one in my system, no-way to give it back, it is addictive... | |
| Purist Audio "Purist 20th Anniversary" I/C Jim Aud has done a fantastic job with the new Proteus Provectus cables.They are really awesome cables. He makes a Proteus Provectus tonearm cable now and I am considering upgrading my Venustas to this one. This is THE tonearmcable to beat IMHO. | |
| Rim Drive Mod or how to make it even better Tom, if you are impatient and dying to try RIM drive on your VPI it is alot of fun to DIY with an old platter+ bearing . I don't know if it is better or not than the stock upgrade, but it works very well and surely much less expensive ! | |
| What do defective phono tubes sound like? Thank you, Sirspeedy, this is only a humble experiment I tryed, just to see the impact of a full size platter acting as rim drive . It turned out to be very effective at no cost, exept the new superplatter.What have you tryed yet in your system to... | |
| New Re-Issue Vinyl: Surface Noise, Ticks, Pops.... I totaly agree with most of the above posts about bad quality of new reissues.This can be avoided if you buy the record in a record shop where you can LISTEN to it before buying, like in old days. The problem is that a vast majority of us are buyi... | |
| Avalon Indra vs. Magico V3 with Mc 275 ? Thank you Jaybo, in fact I have invested the most on the source ( cartridge, arm, TT, tonearmcable, phonopreamp ). The Martin Logans ( with sub) have always followed the upgrades for the better. I am wondering if a superlative speaker like the Ava... | |
| Avalon Indra vs. Magico V3 with Mc 275 ? Jaybo, do you mean that a Mc Intosh C 22 commemoration reissue would be a better preamp match than the ARC LS 25 MKII in my system ? Maybe, but my other sources (FM+digital) are symetric (XLR), and I don't use a line preamp on my phono pathway. Co... | |
| What do defective phono tubes sound like? What a happy end! Sirspeedy you and Atmasphere demonstrated once more how Audiogon is a nice tool when properly used. I am quite new to this site and learn so much about this magnificent hobby/passion through the great communication you guys have ... | |
| What do defective phono tubes sound like? My Allaerts Finish Gold just asked me to send you a big Atmokisss !!!!!! |
