| Any recent Shinjitsu owners? @wolf_garcia Enjoyed looking at their products. Prices looks very reasonable and if sonics are good, maybe a bargain (so few of those). Thanks for the info | |
| ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords In a way, this is kind of amusing. Many chide naysayers as their perception is not universal and get angry if they say we cannot hear what we hear. Seems like some of these same people are a bit incredulous because the OP didn’t perceive/hear ... | |
| my own experience with Tekton Design I suspect a major part of the Tekton animosity was due to one forum member who used to tick off many by their seemingly snide remarks and used to always suggest Tekton as the one size fit all solution. With the exception of their 30k speaker, Tek... | |
| Giving Advice without recommending your own equipment Yes, there is subjective bias in much of the reviews, but hoping for better non-partial evaluations is wishful thinking. Sifting through possibly bias recommendations is still better than no data at all, and I find great value in a component pref... | |
| Why all or most audiophiles are men? It probably started on who has the best club, stone, or pointed stick. | |
| 5 steps in developing hearing Maybe misery enjoys company, but I’ve always guessed that reported PRaT was a perception that the beat subjectively seemed more noticeable to the reviewer but is something I’m not yet familiar with. Odd to think that changing components can chang... | |
| Decware Sarah 300B Amp? 4.7 years, non refundable? Yow - that put a damper on choosing Deckard products. | |
| 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. | |
| Turntable advice I got the VPI Avenger rim drive so I could use multiple arms. I later upgraded my VPI arms to Schroeder CB-L (VDH GC cart), Schlick (SPUs), 4point (all other carts incl mono). VPI is a long established company, and with the son Matt running it ... | |
| What is the quality and performance level of Fluance turntables?? Click on your name “sunnyjim” to see your past “Fluance” threads that you started to see forum member answers. Good luck with your mental health. | |
| VPI Scoutmaster to HRX OP - maybe ask on the VPI forum | |
| Best DAC’S $5k to $15k What do the numbers and their + and - signs represent? numbers are prices (not up to date), “-“ I like, “*” I like a lot. i keep lists of components I like including future upgrades/endgame targets. | |
| Turntable Isolation Fantastic- glad the OP solved the footfall problem For hippo dancers, maybe something like this | |
| Back to the DAC The Ferrum Wandla DAC here seems to be a sonic bargain. The Lampi Baltic4 and T+A 200 also sonically punches above their price points. |
