| Graham phantom MK2 /. Simon Yorke S10 I have an SME V armboard. Will the Graham SME mount mate to the SME V's mounting holes? I tried asking Graham but no reply. | |
| shindo vs. atma-sphere If you want to hear the difference brought by resistors, get a variety of pairs and try them in the phono load position on the backside of the preamp (at least on the MP-1, I assume a similar spot for the MP-3). They are simple to swap and the gea... | |
| shindo vs. atma-sphere Neil - have you rolled any tubes yet? The chinese tubes that come stock tend to be quiet and pretty reliable (though not super long lived) but their top end is, uh, well let's say less than sweet. MP-1 and MP-3 are gorgeous sounding preamps. | |
| Will anyone do a report on the RMAF??? RMAF coverage at The Audio Beat | |
| Repair for Teres Motor? Don't know if it is still good but there's also a phone number on the site. In the past Chris could sometimes take time to respond based on his business travel. But he always did. | |
| Audio Desk Systeme Record Cleaner Thanks for laying out your history with the Audio Desk Systeme, especially the follow-up report. Kudos for your patience and persistence. Did you get a new 2 year warranty with the new machine?Since you have the latest version it will be very help... | |
| Aluminum Foil test for Audio Desk Vinyl Cleaner I too do a version of the Loricraft/AIVS regimen; there's no question it can do a great job and it is time consuming. You can never clean the same record twice so I'm a tad skeptical of listening tests, but I'd be interested to learn your findings... | |
| Shunyata VX vs CX That doesn't negate the fact that newer generations are 'cleaner' or 'more detailed', but music is, to me, not about having the 'cleanest' or 'most detailed' presentation - at least, not when I hear it live.I understand where you're coming from th... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers In other words, maybe the Stillpoints will emphasize certain qualities and downplay others, but is this perhaps working against the intended design and voicing of the speaker?Maybe or maybe not, idle speculation can't carry us very far. The compan... | |
| Today's New York Times Okay... so then how are we going to introduce the "twenty and thirty somethings" into our hobby ?Give them the opportunity to hear their music on your system. Let them *hear* what is possible. Music lives much better than it reads. | |
| What might cause LOUD hum in a Conrad Johnson pv6 One RCA socket lost ground from the cable yanking.This was my first thought as well. I lived with CJ preamps in the PV-5 through PV-8 series and the internal RCA wire connections tend to weaken over time with just normal use, partlyh due to the le... | |
| Lamm LL2.1 Deluxe "DC Offset"? Lamm gave you a diagnosis and offered to supply the parts to your dealer to address the issue. Your dealer has a Lamm qualified technician. This situation is either very simple or there is some information missing. Seems like it is up to you and y... | |
| Lamm LL2.1 Deluxe "DC Offset"? What reason does your dealer give for declining to replace the capacitors that Lamm offered to supply? | |
| Lamm LL2.1 Deluxe "DC Offset"? This story does not appear to be happening in real time. The dealer gets a lower measurement than you and Lamm states a lower measurement has been seen on one occasion which was diagnosed as leaking caps, which they offered to replace. You suggest... | |
| Tube Mono-Block Recommendation ... fast, Accurate and musical as possible. Giving me close to Transistor Amp Clarity but with the magic off tubes.Sounds like an AtmaSphere MA-1 - though sans-transformer, is likely clearer than a transistor amp. |
