| Record player sounds out of tune and "wavy" The Fluence and Rega are good suggestions, but better to stretch for the Project Debut Carbon which includes a cart as it is a much better deal/value. | |
| Mobile Fidelity Ultradeck For the money, the Ultradeck at the lowered price is a much better deal. The Ultradeck iDelrin platter seems to be superior to Rega’s platter material, and the HRS feet are superior as well. | |

| 15k for streamer and dac....how much on each? I’d choose a DAC up to 12k first, then decide on a streamer. Keeping the streamer separate from the DAC may be beneficial for future upgrades, but there are some good streamer+DACs. I started with separate streamer and DAC, but upgraded to the s... | |
| Opinions on NAD please Great thread - I was curious about NAD as well. | |
| Finally got a Luxman Congrats! Enjoy. | |
| Are You a Swifty? Only the early “Love Story” and “You belong to me”. I’m generally not a fan of most contemporary music which seems to lack creative pleasing melodies. Many songs have monotonous song phrases and a disconnect chorus, seems that singing in tune w... | |
