| High end Class D amps? 3 1/2 yrs later, I could not resist. Of course there are Class D amps out there that are "just as good" as Class A amps....just like there are Hyundai autos out there that are "just as good" as a Ferrari. | |
| Technics Turntables...really??? Nah lewm.... Technics simply represents a bad memory from my distant past while their track record is not so great with several models. My response is more a momentary from-the-gut reaction couched in hyperbole. And, giving in to the brand most... | |
| Turntable upgrade recommendations: SME vs AMG vs Technics vs other dogberry Nope, would NEVER consider a Technics in my rig. | |
| Technics Turntables...really??? The only people who prop up Technics are poor audiophile wanna-bes. For the garbage Technics built in the past, they will forever pay for their sins. | |
| Turntables grossman 616 so you recommend Thorens undoubtedly because YOU OWN a Thorens....hardly an objective endorsement that inspires confidence. I wonder if you can actually explain why in a meaningful way. | |
| Turntable upgrade recommendations: SME vs AMG vs Technics vs other says someone above, and I quote, "Technics, not even close!" REALLY?? NOT EVEN CLOSE?? Do you have some kind of bionic ears? How much ya wanna bet this guy, ALL-IN, has less than $10k invested in his entire system. No one who is ’audiophile profi... | |
| Schroder Tonearms - where do I purchase? are there authorized sellers in US? AGAIN, thank you for the advice and guidance. My 2-ch system is packed for transport, in my residential move from Scottsdale to Las Vegas. I'll hold off on further action until I set up the system in my new home. Mijostyn - I may well conside... | |
| Schroder Tonearms - where do I purchase? are there authorized sellers in US? Thanks for all the input and sorry for being absent from the party. I was called away from home on an emergency and am just finally getting around to reading your comments. I should add, on second thought, a new development. A wealthy audiophile ... | |
| Origin Live Tonearms NOT MUCH FOCUS HERE ON THE ACTUAL TOPIC....ORIGIN LIVE TONEARMS | |
| Kuzma Stabi Reference vs Avid Acutus Avid has become a joke. The company has made the decision to become totally inflexible, in requiring their customers to purchase TT bundled with their choice of tonearm and cartridge. There is no option for upgrading the classic PSU (which weigh... | |
| How does wood hardness affect the sound of a TT on a wood TT platform? So few of the geniuses above provide any practical, REAL, scientific insight into what Janka Scale hardness might be best for TT isolation. Why don't you just say you're not certain rather than bloviating about what might work? | |
| Ayon or Pass There more I watch Guttenberg, the more I question his genuine commitment to the gear he "often so casually" gives passing grades to. His reviews have become increasingly subjective as he uses flowery descriptive words that lack any real audio sp... | |
| Ayre QX-5 Twenty bander - "blew it away" huh? On that advice, I'm gonna purchase a unit from MojoAudio??....who is this company. 2 men and a dog, in a garage?? A little bit of nepotism going on here? | |
| CD transport vs.streaming I know some of the clowns above (and jokers) are able to HEAR, but how many of them actually know how to LISTEN? The speakers are ALWAYS the most critical component that affects one's perception of sonic characteristics. And when I hear nonsense... | |
| What Brand Of Hearing Aids Are Audiophiles Using? Hmmm....I went to Costco. Tried a pair of Phillips walking around the store for over an hour. They were horrendous....it sounded like I was in a futuristic science fiction movie. I later went to another audiologist and and actually purchased a ... |
