| converting Rega to balanced output? That's what I'm looking for No_money.....a generous dealer. ;-) | |
| What else sounds like Kubala Sosna? Cardas Golden Reference, but I don't know how much less. I think it will still run you about $6,000 for an 8 meter pair. | |
| converting Rega to balanced output? I haven't, but I'm curious as to how you are enjoying your P7. I am considering buying one of them myself. | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? TBG, you are the one who appears to be lost on this thread. The thread is entitled: "How does one get off the merry-go-round?". If you enjoy riding the merry-go-round, by all means keep riding. Please don't admonish those that are trying to be hel... | |
| Room treatment made me cry.......a little........ Your post Bill is almost enough to make me contemplate divorce. As everyone always says, the room is THE most important component. I have a decent room, but I cannot make it my own. I've been waiting many years for the kids to move out, but that's... | |
| Tube preamp recommendation ... CJ and ARC are two very different animals from two opposite ends of the spectrum. The CJ will give you the musical and warmth that you seek, the ARC will give you the transparent and neutral that you seek. If you are looking for something in betwe... | |
| Why is my Nottingham picking up so much dust noise Yes, the table NEEDS to be grounded too. Run a ground wire from the center hub which holds the bearing. The needle running through the grooves creates static electricity, grounding the table gives this energy a path to go so it doesn't use the can... | |
| Dynavector XV-1s vs. Transfiguration Temper w Interesting and intelligent post Nsgarch, thank you. I've tried quite a few high end cartridges in my system/room, and while I do like some better than others, I've yet to hear one that sounds slow, dull AND anemic. Perhaps some feel the need to e... | |
| Is Ortofon "Salsa MC better than Dynavector 10X5? If you think the Dynavector 10X5 has lost some of it's sound quality after only 150 hours, you should check to make sure you have it mounted correctly. You should get at least 10 times that much play before a cartridge starts to wind down. Here is... | |
| What determines good distortion? Lewhite is correct, I was confused. It's single-ended amps that produce the even order harmonic distortion versus push-pull amps which produce odd order harmonic distortion. I think my confusion is because MOST single ended amps are of the tube va... | |
| Why is my Nottingham picking up so much dust noise Check to make sure your turntable AND tonearm are properly grounded and that one of the grounds didn't come loose. | |
| Multi Arm Table I saw a setup in NYC that had 4 arms mounted on a Micro-Seiki 8000 turntable. He had all four mounting blocks custom machined so that the weight difference between all 4 arms/cartridges with mounting block was less than 1 gram. It was a truely awe... | |
| Hales Design Group Concept 3 You could post them for sale on various sites with "no shipping" as a stipulation of sale. You could also post them on a local Craigslist or something too. Good luck. | |
| Tube preamp recommendation ... How about a nice Joule Electra LA-100/150 series preamp??That should fit the bill. | |
| Pop noise from turntable when power-off the unit. Are you muting the VAC integrated amp before turning off the turntable? If not, DO SO!! I ALWAYS mute the preamp while turning off/on the turntable. Put the new record on, clean it, start it and UNMUTE. It's just that easy. |
